Favorite Drugstore/ Affordable lashes
It’s officially time for my first post!
And for my first topic we have one of my favorite beauty items to really just take up any look. Before lashes was a sad time for my makeup. I just could not figure out why all these beauty guru’s just seemed to have their eyes on another level! When I thought fake lashes, I thought dance recitals, and I couldn’t see why I would even need them with my decently long lashes. Mascara should do the trick right? Wrong.
So when I finally tried them out I quickly realized the error of my previous ways. They were game changing! And while there are many many different kinds of lashes (very high end mink, very low end shiny) I feel I have found some very affordable options for all needs. Here we go!
There they are! From the top going clockwise we have:
- Eylure Exaggerate No 143
- Ardell Natural Babies in Black
- Ardell Natural Beauties in Black
- Eylure and Vegas Nay Grand Glamor
- Ardell Wispies
So we will go from the biggest most glam to the most natural. I bet you can guess what we are starting with. That lovely blue box, the Eylure and Vegas Nay Grand Glamor lashes! If you are looking for a big lash that is somehow still really wearable, you will find it with these. Fluffy and slightly wispy with some great volume.
Next in the slightly more natural/ everyday lash department we have these guys. The Ardell Wispies are classics. They look like your lashes just longer. Much longer. That is the only thing I will say, be aware that they may reach up to those eyebrows, but they definitely still have a natural look. The Eylure Exaggerate 143’s are a great find. I typically can only grab them at Ulta, and every time I go if I see them I snag them. They have slightly more volume then the Wispies but are definitely shorter. They just really give me the finished eyes I am looking for. Both of these guys are my go to lashes, night or day, just to bring my eyes to the next level.
Finally we have the natural guys. For the lash beginner, I definitely recommend starting here! The Babies are literally for those who just want some slight “umph” to their lashes. No length really, just slight volume. But they are great when you are first starting just to throw on to practice applying lashes. The Beauties are a step up, with slight length and slight volume, but really nothing crazy by any means. The natural line by Ardell has many options for the lash newbie, and I recommend any really, the more wispy the better.
Both of these brands are available to drugstores (CVS, Walgreens), Target, and Ulta. They are very affordable (around $5 a pair) and can be worn a few times before tossing.
Thanks for stopping by, hope to see you soon 🙂
