First impressions:
Seeing as I -really- wanted a pair of
lashes in this style, I got really excited when I got these (forever
ago).
The box was nice, nothing out of the
ordinary, and the lashes looked fine. A bit on the really thick side IRL but I was too pumped to notice that at first.
- And a little side note here: When I opened the box I discovered that the pair had each own little holder. Quite a nifty little detail, seeing as the tray style lash boxes require you to go get a lash case unless you want to carry around 4 extra pairs with all of your makeup.

Style:
They are a little too thick for my
taste when applied. I do not like how the transition from my lid to
my lash (the inner corner) is SO harsh. Funny enough it is not that
visible in my pictures, but boy if they are not placed right, they
are a pain to look at irl. They open the eye a fair bit, and if you
want a really dramatic look, these lashes will probably be really
good. BUT! They are also quite heavy on the eye because they are so
thick.
Application:
This part is why the review was so
delayed! (That and cosplay+finals, seesh) They are compared to clear
band lashes (which I prefer to use) really hard to apply. They are
stiff and you have to fiddle around with them quite a bit to make
them bend enough. They also have a really bad tendency to 'flip out'
in the edges, so I would recommend you pay attention to the outer
edges when applying glue - and also use a good glue, otherwise they
will fly right off.
Over all:
They are really pretty, if you know how
to use them. It is not something that looks good right out of the box
like the Diamond Fairy eye did, but after they have been bent and
used a couple of times they look better and fit a lot easier to the
eye. I would not recommend them for people new to the whole lash
thing, but if you a experienced user and want a dramatic look, I am
sure you will like these.
