Flutter those lashes

11/11/2015

IMG_4802

As with many girls, there is something about beautiful full lashes that completes a look.

I for one don’t have short stubby lashes, they are long but with some mascara I’m happy how it makes my eyes pop after a few applications of mascara.

However morning make-up runs is a rush, often I put mascara on while I’m getting into my car, so not cool! Then the mascara goes M.I.A and I can’t find it the next day.

I decided that the fight and search for mascara could come to a halt as I looked into lash extensions.

It wouldn’t be my first researching lashes as I had a unfortunate situation three years ago where I didn’t do my research and thought of finding a great deal on lashes was the way to go. Needless to say I lost almost half my lashes to the unqualified cheap alternative, it was my own fault. You get what you pay for.

This time I contacted Monique Pappas, the gorgeous make-up whiz whom I’ve known for some time and did my make-up for my wedding.  She’s a pro with lash extensions and knew I was good capable hands.  She does the lash application at Spoilt Inc in Bedfordview.

Baring in mind, lashes are applied individually so it’s not a rushed job by any means. So make sure you’ve allocated at least 2 hours of your day.

Once I lay on the bed, Monique cleaned my eyes off and removed any make-up  residue.  She then placed a soft cotton cushion under each eye,  to secure the working space.

Monique used Xtreme Lashes which is applied with a bonding glue to your natural lashes. It is gentle and does not damage your own lashes in the process.

I was amazed at the results after I opened my eyes. There was a distinct difference as the lashes made my eyes pop.

IMG_4800The lashes aren’t heavy nor irritating like some eyelash strips . With the correct care, the lash extensions are expected to last for a month before a refill is needed.

I’ve had the lashes on now for 3 weeks and it’s been a breeze.  Some days I don’t bother wearing much make-up as the lashes are more than enough for a lazy day.

Now there’s no more search parties for my rogue mascara wand.

Contact Monique at Spoilt Inc at 011 450 1322 for a price list regarding all your lash needs.

About Me:

Hi I'm Nikita.

Welcome to my corner of the online sphere. A place where we can be honest about mothering while trying to juggle life as working moms. As mothers, we worry about losing our identity, so let's find out together. With eight years of experience as a wordsmith, I'm never at a loss of words but maybe that's my Portuguese heritage coming through.

So proud to be named one of Twinkl's Best Family Bloggers for 2023

My heart swelled at the sight of Adriana’s joy. My heart swelled at the sight of Adriana’s joy. 

She feels seen as a girl with T1D. 

With her CGM, and insulin pump. 

It’s one of the things that we work hard to instil in her, that she is “seen”, loved and that she should never feel embarrassed of her illness. 

It’s her superpower to educate others and advocate for T1D.

Tag fellow T1D warriors 💙
