sonia kashuk full glam lashes review

I swapped for these after watching Holly Ann-AeRee's Youtube vid on them:

I used the Duo lash glue in dark tone with them:

This is what they look like on the eye. They make your lashes full like a fan and give length that is glamorous (but NOT over the top, up-to-your brow, drag queen type of thing):

I like that these lashes open up your eye and give you a wide-awake look. I think this shape and style of lash is excellent for Asian girls (like me) who want to create the illusion of a bigger eye:

They look very nice too when you look down-not weird nor spiked, just very feminine and flutter-y:

Here is a pic of them outdoors. FYI: MY CONTACTS ARE SOLOTICA HIDROCHARME ICE (WELL worth the $$ b/c they are thicker, yearly lenses that correct my vision better than the cheap kind)

PROBLEMS WITH THE LASHES:  They are hard plastic and feel like a HUNDRED POUNDS on your lid.  I wear lashes a lot, so most don't bother me, but these felt ridiculous - like a damn butterfly sitting on your eye.

PROS
Opens up the eyes
Makes eyes look bigger/more awake
Gives a full, fan-like lash
Glamorous but still natural lenth (not drag queen )
Very sturdy, can use over again probably 5-6x

CONS
Hard, plasticky feel, not real hair
VERY HEAVY like bugs sitting on your lids
expensive-around 5 bucks for a pair

REPURCHASE : NO, I want this exact same style of lashes BUT made of human hair or something lighter. If anyone knows of a similar-looking lash but not made of friggin' adamantium plastic, please let me know!!

aww that's too bad. They look really good on you but the heavy feeling is a definite no no. Have you tried MAC or Shu Uemura lashes? They feel much better but are more pricey.
