I've been lashed and I love it!

In preparation of Blogopolis this weekend (yes I am mentioning it again) I dropped into Lash Me at North Lakes for a brow shape n' tint and some eyelash extensions. I know this seems a little over the top for a convention, but I had been hearing about their new Cheveux Eyelash extensions and this seemed like a great time to give them a whirl.

What makes these extensions different is that that are made from human hair. I know this sounds a little Buffalo Bill (from Silence of the Lambs) but I have only heard great things. They are cruelty free, lightweight, finer than mink or acrylic and have a consistent curl.

My technician was magic fingers Michelle. She is so light fingered, gentle and is a complete perfectionist. I love that. There was not one unruly brow hair that went unplucked or one stubby lash that went unattended.

This is my before. I am kind of surprised how sparse my lashes and brows are looking in the photo. 
After, I only have a little eyeliner on. I can not wait to see how these babies look with some liquid eyeliner and shadow.
I love that Katrina at Lash Me is always on the lookout for the latest and best products in her field. I think she really knocked it out of the park with these. She has now opened up salons in Noosa, Melbourne and Sydney.

I received the product to review but I did not receive any payment to review it. I am happy to receive payment but I will always give an honest opinion.

    1. Hi Deb, no they fall out when your natural lashes do. They are individually glued to each natural lash. They last a few weeks but you can get refills. Rachel x

  4. I like it Rachel! It looks so pretty. I wanted to do something like this because I have very hooded eyelids and if I put eyeliner, it will just disappear 'under the hood'

    I like aestheticians who are perfectionists too. That's a great job by Michelle

    (PS, we have the same name)

  5. I've had good and I've had bad experiences with lash extensions :( I've been a bit scared off them for the moment. Yours look absolutely fabulous though!
