Eylure Individual Eyelashes...

As most of you know, I wear eyelashes almost everyday, and I'll try any that you recommend to me.
I'm in love with Eylure lashes, they're my favourite, and I was super excited when someone recommended using Eylure Individucal Eyelashes. I've always wanted individual lashes doing, because I'm sick of sometimes having part of my eyelash unstuck throughout the day, but didn't want to pay over £100 to have them done. Also, I'm going to America next month, and don't want to have to bother applying false lashes everyday!
I picked these up in Savers for only £1.99, as opposed to Boots which are £5.99. They only had the brown coloured ones, but as my lashes are brown anyway, I thought I'd try them out!

What do they say?

'Longer, fuller, natural looking lashes'

'Semi Permanent'

'Quick and easy to apply'

'Up to 4 weeks wear'

How do you do them?

The instructions included in the package say that you must clean your lashes with an oil free cleanser before you start. You must also use tweezers to apply. They also say that you must put the glue on tin foil (apparently it's easier to see the glue and it's less messy).

Firstly, I took off all make-up with my 'Simple Make-up remover', which is oil free, and cleaned my lashes twice using this. I then used my 'Proactiv Toner' to make sure everything was off and to cleanse my lashes.

I then started applying each individual eyelash (with my tweezers), starting from the inside, to the outside. I did try the whole glue on the tin foil thing, but it just didn't work out and was much easier for me to hold the stick of the glue, and rub the eyelash onto it. Then you don't waste any glue at all.

I used the medium lashes for the outside and for the last 3/4 of the eye. I then used the short for the inside of the eye and mixed them with the medium sized towards the middle of the eye so it blended in a lot better.

I still had a good 7 or 8 left over, so did not use all of them. The only thing is, a few of them would not pull out of the packaging and I ended up breaking 1 or 2 because of this.

Results!

I really love these eyelashes. They look super natural but also give me a lot of length. As you can see from the before and after photos, there is a great difference between them. Plus, the brown ones are pretty dark, not extremely light which I was thinking. But I'm super happy with my results. a negative they I do have, is that on one of my eyelashes, there were purple strands on it which I thought was pretty bad. But the colour goes away with some mascara on those little lashes.
