TIME 4 Lashes: Faux Real!

I was perusing through the May 4th edition of TIME magazine (President Obama- 100 Days on the cover).....lo and behold, a pair of false lashes were pictured in the middle of the page. An article, on faux lashes, in TIME. Wow! Basically, the article mentioned the craze of false lashes and how long they have been in existence. There are so many fabulous options; however, the focus was on a particular company. Personally, I am not a huge fan of this brand (you should read the article). As it pertains to the everyday look, I find the criss-cross lash to be so unrealistic. Honestly....I have not seen "real" lashes on a human that grow in a criss- cross fashion. In addition, for $20.00 or more, these lashes should look natural. Yes, they offer several designs....which are beautiful (feathers, fur, glitter, gold, crystals, flares, etc.). However, for the most part, the cross design pops up....often. Plus, the band of this brand is not as flexible. Based upon my sampling of many products. In any case, it was good to see a feature article on false lashes in such a prestigious magazine. They are phenomenal and so faux real!
