BornPretty False Lashes Review + Makeup Look

BornPretty Store (#1539) 5 Set Natural Curling Lashes

BornPrettyStore.com is an online beauty, nail and accessory wholesale supplier where you can find a variety of nail accessories to phone accessories as well as false lashes and hair supplies.

Save some cash on false lashes by buying in bulk! Why spend $5-6 on a single pair at the drugstore when you can just dish out $6 on 5 pairs of falsies from BornPrettyStore.com?!

Find lashes like this Natural Curling Set (#1539) on their site. They are made from artificial fibre but give a natural lash appearance due to the cut of the strands. They are shorter on the inner part of the eye and gradually get longer towards the outer end of the strip. The strip lash itself is transparent which is great making them as light as possible and the strands all while containing 13 individual clusters of strands on the band.

Translucent thin band offers lightweight feel while holding 13 clusters of strands

They are long enough for those with larger eyes and can be simply cut down to fit those with smaller eyes. In my case, I didn't have the need to cut them down, they fit my eyes perfectly.

Beauty Tip: Remember to always trim your false lashes from the outside. Do not cut them from the inner part or you will potentially ruin the design of your strip lashes.

PACKAGING
As an avid cosmetic "collector" aka hoarder (ha) I appreciated the simplicity in the packaging of the set. Yes, don't get me wrong I love intricate beautiful packaging but when you have a collection of beauty products, packaging begins to take over storage space. And lashes have been one of those items that don't really need to take that much space up.  Unfortunately there is no way to downsize on the packaging myself. I'm all for the packaging of boxed lashes that are just simply pretty to look at but I find plain bulky packaging to be unnecessary. For example, Ardell and Andrea lashes (found at the drugstore) just take up too much space in my drawers. I would love for them to redesign the packaging of their lashes. The 5 pairs came housed in a fairly thin plastic casing with a clear cover. I removed the insert in order to clearly see the lashes.

Packaging Close Up

Taking care of these lashes can assure multiple use out of them. When removing them after wear, I clean off any leftover mascara with alcohol and carefully remove the lash glue that stays on the band, then disinfect the band with alcohol and store them back in their packaging to keep their form. This will ensure that they last you at least 3 or 4 uses.

Review: KKCenterHk Lashes

ES A510 KKCenterHk Lashes 

I always said I would never fall into the world of wearing false lashes because long lashes run in my family but boy, was I wrong. I've fallen in love with how much fuller they make my lashes look! Don't get me wrong, I don't throw them on every day but I do think they help complete a look for a night out for drinks and dancing.

If you do wear lashes on a regular basis then you already know that it can get a bit costly on your wallet to stay so fly ;) Well, there's a solution to that, buy quality lashes in bulk and save yourself some cash!

KKCenterHk, based out of Hong Kong, is an online company that specializes in selling just that and more, like makeup, wigs, all types of nail products as well as fashion items. They have a huge selection of false lashes to choose from, that might just be the hardest part of it all. What about the long shipping wait time, you ask? That's the BEST part, I received my package in 1 week. That's pretty awesome to me considering the package was sent from Hong Kong.

I was sent the ES A510 False Lashes. Retailing at $15.44 for 10 pairs, you figure you're paying $1.54 for each pair compared to the $5 you would be spending on just one pair of lashes at your local drugstore. These lashes have very soft hairs and a thin black stem. They are so soft in fact that I kind of had a bit of trouble putting the first one on and it lifted at the inner corner. (See right eye in pic) The second lash went on fine.

These luxuriant spiky lashes are very dramatic and long but are not uncomfortable at all. I don't think I would ever wear them during the day and probably not regularly for a night out dancing, but they are a fun pair of lashes for a specific event, makeup shoots or costume makeup. I'm hoping to try out a set of there natural looking lashes soon.

Packaging is nothing too special, the 10 pairs come secured into a piece of cardboard paper and the gold stickers you see hold each side of the lashes down into place. Don't fret, they do not harm the lashes. That piece is then inserted into a black glossy box.
