hi everyone, i was wondering if any of you knew any good brands or places to get fake eyelashes for asian eyes? i had my hair and makeup trial done, and my makeup person put fake eyelashes on, and they were wildly uncomfortable and very straight, and i am wondering if it's just b/c i have asian eyes, or if they are always like that, as that was the first time i've ever had fake eyelashes put on me before. i'm hoping to find a good brand and maybe give it to her to put on me, but the wedding is in less than 3 weeks, so i need easy access! i read in the posts about japonesque and thi. anyone have experience with those brands or can recommend any other ones? thanks!
What city do you live in? if your'e in LA, there's a bunch of make up stores inside korean markets and they have this brand called DARKNESS and they have great lashes. they're comfy and they move with you.
I have tried the semi-perm eyelash extensions, but not in California. They are pretty awesome if you can get them done by the right person and keep up with the maintenance. The semi-perm are supposed to stay on throughout the duration of your actual eyelash life cycle. So when ur eyelash naturally falls out, that's when the extension will fall off, with it. Its amazing how you can add them and they make my straight lashes curl.
My biggest issue with them was that i have oily skin and oily eyelids. So they seemed to come off quicker than they should have. Also, I live in DC so maintenance was hard.
HOWEVER, my aunt did them in CA. she had them down from a vietnamese lady in/near rowland heights. I believe its like 150-200 and 50/maintenance. Just be weary, b/c the first time my aunt did it, the lady used cheap glue or something and burned off ALL her eyelashes... after that, she still got them done elsewhere and had long eyelashes until she got tired of the maintenance.
I think for a one time deal - for a month or so, special occasion like a wedding - its worth the 200-300 to get it done right. I plan to so that i can have beautiful eyelashes on my honeymoon without even trying :)
PLEASE READ..Yes any Asian store is a good idea, also Little Tokyo has a shiseido store that sells eyelashes from Japan. Your make-up artist should bend them a bit before sticking them on sort of roll them to loosen up but it is possible you might be irritated by anything. Mac cosmetics sells 2 kinds of eyelash glue at the actual Mac Storefronts. As for the semi-permanent...my best friend had them done by someone fabulous in Beverly Hills (she does all the stars) my dear friend had a reaction and by her wedding day...had lost many of her own lashes and was slightly pink-ish. I say despite the cost you have to do a trial run...I cant reccommend trying anything new for the wedding...including hairspray, lipstick, mascara...-you just never know
