dolly wink false eyelashes in no.2 sweet girly review, photos

Okay, so. I love false eyelashes. I love Tsubasa Masuwaka's bambi lens series. Japanese gyaru makeup is pretty damn cool too. See where I'm going?
Yup, the inevitable foray into the famed DollyWink lash series. As a self proclaimed eBay-lash addict, $22.95 wasn't easy to hand over for 2 sets.

Was it worth it?
Kind of. Uh, actually no, not really. No. While the lash hairs themselves are really nice, fine and soft, the design is cute and the lash band is clear and flexible, there is one thing that majorly spoils these lashes.

It's not the lash band sticking out in pokey annoyingness on either end, which is a tiny potential dealbreaker because you have to go through the trouble of trimming both corners and not just the outer one. That, I can deal with becaise I have to do the same to my craptacular $1 lashes.

It is the stupid, fat globs of glue that sit on the band and ruin everything because they're stupid and unnecessary and they're high end eyelashes so why do they have such big blobs of glue??? This renders the lash band completely uneven and adds random hard bits which make them less comfortable to wear, not to mention causing stupid white blobs on the lashline when worn.

I coloured them in with liquid liner since I wore them to work, but still. This is how they look on. I wouldn't recommend them with puffy monolids as they're so long and droopy/heavy that they hooded over my whole eye haha! Hence the double eyelid sticker but if you have hooded monos it should be 100% fine if you still wanna have a crack at prying the glue off the lash band (which you can't, it's all hard and resiny.)

Come to think of it, Tsubasa herself has glue poo on her lower lashes in this official promo pic, so I really should have seen this coming.

The included lash glue (the only glue I want on my falsies) is pretty good though, I'll give them that.
