conflicted.


i got eyelash extensions. yes, this pic is really me. arent they beautiful?! they were a bday gift to myself. i loved how they looked. but at what cost is beauty? i must have sensitive eyes or something bc they drive me crazy!! i have only had them on for a week and i have started plucking them off one by one. the girl who did them is amazing and was highly recommended, so i know it has nothing to do with her! but why?? why me? why would they bother ME so much? this seems soooo up my alley right? now i just cant wait until they all fall off. anyone ever tried latisse? that may be my next attempt at luscious lashes...

they are super super pretty! so sad they are irritating you.

my friend whitney has an aunt who had amazing results with latisse. the only issue with it is that it has a warning that if you have light colored eyes (light blue or green) it can change the pigment to brown. yikes! that's not a risk i'm willing to take (not that there's anything wrong with brown eyes...just that i enjoy my eyes the way they are)!

if latisse is what people use to get their eyelashes to grow then i've heard great things about it. i wanted to get eyelash extensions so badly for the wedding, but now i probably won't. thanks for the update - you know i crave them!

my little sister did latisse and LOVED it, her eyelashes are so thick, long and pretty! And she literally had NO eyelahes...its crazy how much they grew and fast. And so now my older just started it a couple days ago and they are already looking good. Its crazy how it really works though! You never know with those kind of things, but I have only heard positive.

I do eyelash extensions all the time. BUT don't do latisse because my friend when she stopped using the cream her eyelashes all fell out, it was so sad!

latisse really works but the yucky side effect is that they turn eye color brown. BOO. I was so amped to try and it works great for people with brown eyes, but not for us. I checked with the doctor.

What the? Call Tristen and have her change the glue or something. Maybe you are allergic to it. She has differnet kinds. DONT GIVE UP. The eyelash extensions have changed my life. Even when i think they look ghetto and are all crunchy, people still comment on how great my lashes are.

DONT EVER GIVE UP.
(seriously, call tristen, she will fix it...shes magical)

they look great. Nightline just did a story on false lashes, apparently they are a 45 million dollar a year business--who knew?
