HI everyone,
I've just had a few makeup trials and I'm confused about the false eyelashes. i like how they look but one makeup artist just used a few lashes, then when i went to another trial and she used a full strip.  Which looks most natural?
Do most brides get false lashes? i just don't want to look scary :)

Thanks for your advice!

    I would definitely do the false lashes!  I didn't think I needed them, but my MUA recommended them and they looked AWESOME in the pictures!  I've since realized that pretty much all celebrities wear them and they really do look amazing.  And you get used to the feeling really fast.

    I asked my MUA to get ones that would look the most natural and she got full strips, but they were different lengths on it.  Sometimes the full length ones with all long lashes looks a bit fake to me.  I think either full strip or individual will be fine, just tell your MUA you want a really natural look and go with that.

    I wish I had enough motivation to do them myself.  They looked SO pretty!  They really make your eyes pop in pictures.

    I had full strips done by SEB and I liked them better than individuals, but it's one of those personal preference things as well as what the MUA thinks would be better based on what you prefer. If you have already full lashes, adding a few to the outer edge can add more oomph. I loved wearing fake lashes. It took a minute to adjust, but after that I just forgot they were there. I have some close up pics and my eyes totally pop.

    SEB used the individual lashes on me, and they looked fantastic!  I already have really long lashes, and the individual ones made them look even fuller.  Try both out and see what works best for you!!

    I did the individual lashes as well with SEB and they looked awesome!  I was skeptical at first about them but they made my eyes look incredible in photos and they lasted all day

    I was very hesitant to use them too, but when Noel from SEB put the individual ones on me I agree they were fantastic at my trial.  I will also be using them.

    It all depends on what you want to spend or what look you want. I have long eyelashes and I am getting individual ones done which are expensive because they are proffessional and will last 6 weeks. Others are much cheaper and will only last the day of.

    I did lash extensions and loved them!!! I did what they call an extreme set and I ended up with super thick lashes for about 2 months.
