What they promise:

Eyelashes to die for

I am always jealous of these lashes…

Exhibit A lashes

Exhibit B lashes
Seriously, how thick! And exhibit B lashes…are pretty long.
Now those who are blessed with such lashes:

Connor

Duncan
My oldest, Gavin, doesn’t have as long of lashes as his brothers.

And just for good measure…

Some of my favorite mix and match products are:
* Lumiere Mineral Makeup’s […]

La Toya Jackson’s Eyelashes

I admit it, I watched an episode of Armed and Famous tonight. Beyond the weirdness of seeing Jack Osbourne in a police uniform, I had to wonder why someone as rich as La Toya Jackson simply couldn’t afford a nice pair of fake lashes. Has anyone else noticed this when they do a closeup? She […]
