False Eyelashes! From Pretty and Cute

Alright, so this is pretty much the finish of my last blog about Pretty and Cute's site, and the Fairy Drops BB.

Now... onto the false lashes! (All pictures were taken with a complete and total lack of makeup)

I'm going to start with one that some might be familiar with: 

To be honest... of all my false lashes (all four pairs -______-;;) this is definitely my LEAST favorite. I guess I'm weird because I don't like wearing lashes with dried glue on them, so I generally peel off the glue. Well, these lashes are tied around the band (like, the lashes can be felt on the band), so when I tried to peel the glue off, I wound up pulling off two groups of lashes. >:I

Not only that, but the band is flimsy and too thin, and the lashes are obviously fake and just... awkward. Very pretty, but I can never wear these out of my house. Here's a picture:

(I know I'm pink... I got sunburned)


You can see how they'd look rather strange, especially on someone like me. Which is sad, because I was really hoping they'd look more like this:


Maybe it's my American-ness... Either way, I was very disappointed.


Now, next on the list:
Pretty and Cute's own Crystal Band Natural 049

These are my second-favorite lashes, because they're super soft, and the easiest to put on. The lashes go in several directions, and while they're too dramatic for every day use, they're nice enough for special occasions, depending on where you're going and what makeup you're wearing. They bend well, and the lashes are within the band (which is the perfect size, by the way) so I can take off the glue and reuse these as often as I want.


They're very dramatic as well, but look less dolly-like and strange than the Dolly Wink (Dolly-like Dolly Wink lashes? Who woulda thunk it.) They're pretty and blend well with my natural lashes. Definitely good. Besides that, I don't have much to say.


Now here is my absolute FAVORITE PAIR of lashes of these three!
The brand-less Snow White Lashes

Now, I was very confused at first. They showed up like this:


The plastic container is small, and not only contains lashes, but also... a MYSTERIOUS LIQUID. In a tube. With a top. (Don't open it, it smells HORRIBLE and I dunno what it is) Here's a picture of the lashes in action:


They're my favorite 'cause they're soft, and pretty. However, I have one MAJOR complaint:

The band is weird.

I wish I had a picture of it, but oh well. It's not a cylindrical band like most other lashes. Instead, it's a flat piece of black plastic-type material. It doesn't bend well, either, so it's a struggle to make the lashes fit right (If you look on the inner corner of my eye, the band is standing up). Either way, though, they're my longest, yet my most natural-looking. Not sure how that worked out.


Anywho, that's it for this entry! I think later this week, if not next week, I'll do a review on a bunch more stuff. Still haven't finished my first order from SaSa, but I've already ordered more stuff from Imomoko and SaSa alike. Already got my Imomoko stuff, so look out for a quick review of Dr. Scholl MediQtto stockings and socks, as well as other stuff. Bye!
