Eyelash Extension Kit Review Tutorial

Hi guys another review product came from Born Pretty! Many of us wish to have a long and perm eyelashes, and in doing so, we use different kinds of mascara. Born Pretty has an answer for that problem! Eyelash extension kit is now available on her online store. You can use this even just at home for a very affordable price of $12.72. 


Eyelash extension kit includes:
1- 8mm false individual eyelash extension 
1-10mm false individual eyelash extension 
1-12mm false individual eyelash extension 

1-false individual eyelash glue

1-straight tweezer
1-curve tweezer
1-glue remover
1-air pump
and 25pcs crescent curve lint free gel eye pad patch eyelash extension eyepads for only $2.99
                                                                               
     Here's what I received from Born Pretty
and a tutorial on putting them.

NOTE: This product was sent to me as a gift. I made this review based on my own ideas and preference on how to use them. My opinions about the quality of the said products are based on my personal judgements and the outcome of my usage.


1. Wash face with soap and water. 
2. Peel off the eyefoil.
3. Put the eyepatch on the lower part of your eyes, and also on your eyelids.
4. Use an eyebrush for your eyelashes.
5. Dip one eyelash extension in the adhesive and pick one eyelash on which you want to apply it.
6. Stick it on (near the root part).
7. Use pump to dry it.
8. Repeat all the steps on your remaining eyelashes.


You can now see the difference. 
 Here's the "before" and "after". it looks much prettier without mascaras and false eyelashes.

pros: 

*more affordable compared to salon extensions.

* natural looking eyelashes.



cons: 

*you have to be patient because it takes an hour to apply.
*eyeglue may irritate your eyes.



*but all in all, my sis loved the result.
