mmm Red Cherries :) .. Lashes that is


I have heard some things hear and there about the brand Red Cherry for false eye lashes. I was also getting sick of my usual lashes. So it was the perfect time to order some! I ordered the Red Cherry False Lashes off of e-bay (Click here to go to the seller page).  This particular seller sells the lashes in either 20, 15, 10, or 5 pair. I bought the 5 pair of lashes for $11.63 (with free shipping) which ends up being around $2.32 a pair. Not bad. Note that these lashes do not come with glue. The false eye lashes that I usually wear are the E.L.F dramatic set of lashes which are priced at only a dollar. I usually only wear these one time before throwing them away.
Red Cherry lashes are natural lashes that are made out of 100% real human hair.  It was really hard to decide what styles to choose becasue the e-bay page does not have pictures so I was constantly having to go from google images back to the seller page. The styles that I ended up picking were 747L, 43, 532, WSP, and 218. Some of them look pretty similar but all of the pairs are unique to the effect they give to the lashes. All together I feel that these lashes look very natural, even the more dramatic ones. They look a lot more natural then the E.L.F lashes since they are made of human hair and they are not as shiny. 
Let me just say that it is really hard to get good up close eye pictures. I tried my best! lol I applaud all of you bloggers who have the amazing up close eye pictures! Kudos. 

#747L
I am pretty sure that these are the longest out of the bunch. And boy are they long! 


#523
These ones are pretty similar to the #43 lashes but they do not give a lot of volume all the way to the end of the lashes, or at the base of the lashes. 


#43
This set was my absolute favorite. They gave a lot of volume as well as length. Yet, they looked so natural! 


Look at the VOLUME! 

#WSP
These were very uniques lashes. I have never tired any lashes that are wispy like this! They gave amazing length but barely any volume. The only volume given is right at the base of the lash line.  I feel that these are more appropriate for daytime looks because they are not that dramatic (even though they look like they are in the up close pic). 


#218
These lashes are the most similar to the E.L.F Dramatic lashes that I have been wearing. They have the same tapered effect and amount of volume and length. 


I had a lot of fun trying out these different styles of lashes since I am used to the same style. Instead of throwing these away right after using, I have been re-wearing them and they are holding up really well. I have worn a couple of them 3 times and they are still lookin' good  =) I am planning on getting more of the #43 and #WSP styles because I liked them so much! 

Just to let everyone know, once I reach my goal of 100 followers I will be doing a giveaway! Woot! So be sure to watch out for that.  

Has anyone else tried this brand of lashes? If so, what styles do you recommend?

Very Dramatic Lashes!

I was excited when I went in the makeup section at Target the other day and they now have a whole section of E.L.F products! So I picked up several of their products. One thing I bought was a pair of the E.L.F. brand's  dramatic lashes and decided to try them out. Plus they were only a dollar!!
 Definitely love them!! I didn't use the glue though I used a glue that came with a pair from a different brand I previously bought.
