Fake lashes can work some pretty incredible miracles on those who don't have a full flutter of natural lashes. An effortless (or at least, once you master the technique) way of framing your gaze, they can take your eye makeup to the next level.
And the best bit is you can do it yourself for minimal money, and you don't have to commit to anything semi-permanent (like you do with eyelash extensions), so you can change your lash look with your mood.
The truth is, you can’t beat the versatility of false lashes: you can add length, fill in gaps and transform sparse lashes, accentuate different areas of your eyes, try different styles, create next-level fullness and depth, or go all out with feather falsies, glitter lashes and every colour under the sun.
And, despite what you might think, they *can* give you a natural look - dramatic lashes aren't their only M.O. You just need to shop around for the good ones.
To help get you started, we've found eight of the best false eyelashes in Australia. FYI, we actually recommend investing in a few of them - a false lash wardrobe lets you chop and change depending on the look you're going for.
