MAC Cosmetics Launches New Lashes By Christina Smith

This just in from MAC Cosmetics–they have new lashes! Bianca from MAC mentioned this when I went to Fashion Week–so I am excited to finally tell you about it! See the press release below:

Lashes have reached a whole new level… No longer are lashes just for special nights out or glamorous events, they have become an everyday staple being worn by women of all ages.

This fall, MAC takes Lashes to the extreme – whether it’s a natural effect or a more dramatic look you want, it’s easily achieved with the re-launch of MAC Lashes. Acclaimed celebrity lash designer Christina Smith who has designed custom lashes for Hollywood leading ladies including Liza Minnelli, Kate Hudson, Hayden Panettiere and Gisele Bundchen, created 11 exclusive Lash styles with original, new features and streamlined packaging.

NEW LASH FEATURES AND BENEFITS:

* Color – MAC Lashes have a unique blend of black and brown natural hairs, so they blend more naturally with your own lashes. Great for even the fairest of lashes.

* Clear Band – MAC Lashes feature a ground-breaking thin, clear band for easy application and flexibility. Lashes can move, bend and blend.

* Shorter Width – Say goodbye to trimming false lashes to fit. MAC’s newly designed Lashes have a shorter width, so they fit comfortably to the length of your natural lash line.

* Intentional Imperfection – No two lashes are the same or perfectly symmetrical. MAC created intentional imperfections in each lash design to create a more natural effect.

NEW LASH PACKAGING:

The new MAC Lashes are packaged in a unique white tray that holds the lashes around a circular post. The post is used for ease of identification, with the left lash on the left side, and the right lash on the right. The white inner tray slides into a clear outer case and locks into place for secure portability. In addition to beautifully displaying the lashes, the new case also allows for easy storage and reuse.

LASH CARE:

MAC Lashes will last through approximately 3-6 wears, with proper care. When removing Lashes from packaging or the lash line, gently lift one end and peel off slowly and carefully to keep Lashes intact. Store lashes in a cool, dry area as humidity or warm temperatures (often found in the bathroom) may compromise the curl of the lash.

Lash Styles, Pricing and Availability:

MAC Lashes retail for $11.00 USD and will be available on counter OCTOBER 2007.

    […] Makeup Minute has found lashes that you can wear whenever you want. They are made by Mac and what is really interesting is the fact that they aren’t perfect. Head over to find out why! […]

    I’ve sort of been playing around with the idea of trying false lashes, but I’ve been worried that they’ll be too hard…what with having to trim them and making sure that they look somewhat natural, lol! After your post, though, I think I’ll definitely give the MAC ones a shot! :)

    I was just at a MAC counter recently and saw all of all of these eyelashes..I really want to try them … how do contact lens wearers and false eyelashes get along?

    I have contacts and when I wear falsies, I just hope for the best. Usually it doesn’t bother me. Sorry of that wasn’t very helpful =/ But I don’t think it should get you any problems.

    I love how the falsies look on Hayden Panetierre. It really makes her eyes look smokey and fierce! I finally realized that in order to have smokey eyes like the stars, you gotta use falsies.

    I fancy #30, the individual lashes. They are just so perfect for when you need just a *little* extra oomph, especially putting them on your outer edges. I’ve read that Eva Longoria does this sometimes for the winged look she has.

    I like the idea of the clear band. In the past the tell tale application point has always been the problem, and why I saved fakies for Halloween only.

    I only use falsies when I’m going for a SUUUUPER dramatic look. I’ve seen my friends get MAC makeovers which included false lashes, and it can be a really cool, very eye-opening look.

    To be honest, though, as much as I [heart] MAC, I couldn’t see paying so much $$$ for false lashes.
