Eyelash Extensions Review + GIVEAWAY!- Courtesy of LoveYourLashes.ca

Having beautiful lucious lashes is any girl's dream.... there are different ways to achieve that sexy smoldering look of bold and voluminous lashes. I was contacted by Mike from Loveyourlashes.ca inviting me to try out lash extensions. I was so excited because it was something I was looking into trying so it was perfect to be given the opportunity!

I quickly contacted him back and started speaking to his coworker Katy. She quickly scheduled me to come in.  I must say I am not an eyelash extension professional and this is my honest opinion.

BASIC INFO

There are different types of eye lash extensions; Single strand extensions, Mink single eyelashes and Semi single eyelashes. Info on each type can be found on their website http://www.loveyourlashes.ca/

THE LASH PROCESS

I was asked to lie down on something that looked like a massage bed, with my eyes closed for about an hour. I had gel pads on my eyes to prevent me from unexpectantly opening my eyes and having glue all over! I won't lie, I felt myself falling a sleep a few times, it was THAT relaxing, and I didn't feel a thing!

Usually, many people are a little bit skeptical when it comes to their eyes. I did some research ahead of time to make sure that this process was safe. I mean, I do use falsies for special occassions and I don't discourage my clients when they want some but, this type of process seemed a little scary seeing that the lashes would last up to 3 weeks on my eyes. I wanted to make sure that my natural lashes would not be harmed in any way.

RESULTS!

MAINTENANCE AND TIME LIFE

I was told not to use any mascara on my eyelash extensions and trust me, I definitely did not need it! However, I am so used to putting mascara on that in the morning , I had to stop myself every time out of habit! Also, sometimes I would forget and rub my eyes , definitely a no no!

The lashes lasted me about 3 weeks before they eventually all fell off. I was told to NOT pull them off as I will damage my own lashes and that's what I did.

MY OPINION

I really enjoyed them, they felt comforable after about an hour, at first I felt like I had something in my eyes. I wasn't used to having them on. Also, when it came to washing my face, I had to avoid my lashes and  sometimes, I would forget... but all in all, they looked amazing and completely natural!!  I had single lashes put on and I had 70 pieces total which usually cost around $150.  Yes, I admit it is a little pricy and not everyone can afford that kind of price tag on a beauty routine.... however, the refills are only 45$ but don't wait till all your lashes have fallen to go for your refill! Refills should only be done around half of the second week. For weddings and special occasions, I strongly suggest it. Loveyourlashes also offers weddings rates for the bride and her bride maids. The complete list of prices is available on their website.
