I enjoy false lashes for both events and day-to-day wear, but sleeping with them can be challenging when you’re trying to increase their longevity. While I haven’t had lash extensions before, I imagine it’s the same.
I’m a huge fan of FlutterHabit Lashes and have several in my beauty drawer, ready to go! While I am able to sleep without an eye mask while wearing those lashes, a few pieces can get loose, but they never fall off.
This eye mask from Amazon has been a game changer! While I still slept how I wanted without this mask, this allows me to do so without worry!
It’s soft and protects my lashes anyway I move, which is great because I move a lot when I sleep. The strap is also adjustable, so it can be as tight as you need it to be.
Overall, I definitely recommend this eye mask to anyone who wears false lashes or lash extensions regularly!
That’s right! DIY! They’re from FlutterHabit, which has DIY lash extension kits in several styles. I’ve been wearing the Happy Medium and I’m hooked!
For $29.99 you get two boxes of lashes, giving you six pairs.
The best part, they’re customizable! As you can see in the picture above, the Happy Medium comes in 4 lash clusters. You can wear them as is, or you can customize it for a more wispy look. That means you would cut the middle two clusters in half, to get a 3, 2, 2, 3 set of lash clusters.
I didn’t come up with my lash application technique on my own – that came up from a video posted by a “Flutter Expert” on the FlutterHabit Family Facebook group.
In fact, this is the exact video I followed. I highly recommend joining the Facebook group because it’s a great resource for tips and tricks, and a good spot to ask any questions you may have. My first application of these lashes would not have been as successful if it weren’t for the video.
While there is definitely a learning curve, it’s not as difficult as you might expect it to be, believe me! I thought I was going to have an awful time. But I give FlutterHabit lashes a 10/10 rating! Highly recommend!
While I have gotten my lashes to last a full week, I recommend not going longer than five days. I like to give my natural lashes a break and time to breathe in-between wears. I ONLY use the latex glue sold by FlutterHabit and haven’t had any issues or damage to my natural lashes.
For upkeep and maintenance, don’t drench your lashes in water, be careful with eye makeup removal (I normally use a Q-Tip to remove eye makeup while wearing these lashes).
To remove the lashes, I wait until after a hot shower, when the waterproof latex glue is soft and I can gently tug the lashes off. It’s painless and your natural lashes are safe! You can also use an oil-based makeup remover to remove the lashes, but I think after a hot shower is the easiest!
Because I enjoy FlutterHabit lashes so much, I reached out to the company to see if I could get a deal for you all!
