Ebay Lashes

Tuesday, May 18th, 2010 | 69 Comments

About 2 weeks ago I decided I was gonna give the ole “buy batches of lashes on ebay” thing a try. :getit: I decided on a set of 10 pairs from the seller styleinjewelry at the price of $1.00 with $1.50 shipping. Two weeks later they’ve arrived!

And i love them!

I have to admit I was quite amused by something as simple as a plastic cutout heart in the box, gaaahahahaa

Cut directly in half

with the extra end bits cut too~

I figured, at such a low price, I was willing to make the gamble that they would either

1) not be sent or
2) suck balls

….

BUT! :sparkleup:

I was wrong on both accounts!
I chose this style because they looked excellent for cutting into accent + bottom lashes. They were a bit longer than what I had expected from the picture, but that didn’t end up being a problem. By far these cut-lashes are now my favorite accent lash style. :good: VERY dramatic! A bit heavier than the wimpy accent lashes I’ve been using lately, though I’m sure if I trimmed them down I could lighten the load. But the weight didn’t really bother me, just an observation. And as for the leftovers, they do make great dramatic bottom corner lashes I think! :good:

Only the top accent portions that I cut off are on, no bottoms yet!

Both top and bottom cut portions on

I really couldn’t be happier~! and at such a plentiful amount & cheap cost there’s no sad-face when it’s time to toss them out. Not sure of their lifespan yet, probably short. Though they’re ready to go for another wear. :good: Though they aren’t as plastic-y as I expected, but I did choose the overlapping style in hopes cheapness wouldn’t be quite as obvious.

I want to experiment with cutting these up in different ways. This time I merely cut them in half, no trimming

There’s a similar auction by the same seller here but I’m not sure how long this link will be any good b/c you never know with ebay (people buying and whatnot!)

Anyway~ how’s everyone’s week going so far?? Hope it’s a good one!! I’ve got a pretty nasty headache so I’m gonna go relax now.
