Glitzy eyelashes

While I know this is old news I realized that I have no posts about fun false eyelashes so I felt the need to remedy that right away by dedicating an entry to Shu Uemura, Madonna and the fun of false eyelashes!

Many moons ago Madonna made headlines for wearing some insane lashes made of mink fur and diamonds (worth noting, the minks shed the fur used for the lashes).

Shortly after the debut of these lashes Shu Uemura made them available through Neiman Marcus for a paltry $10,000! While I was standing in line for these lashes (oh, wait! That was in my dreams) Shu was kind enough to release a version for those of us that wanted the glitz but didn't have the budget for real diamonds.

"Inspired by shu uemura’s false eyelashes lined with real diamonds created for Madonna by Gina Brooke, shu uemura Artistic Director. Classic false eyelash design with a silver diamante band for voluminous lashes with a delicate flare. Alternating lashes with a gradual sloping of length at the center of the lashes."


These may not be as luxurious as Madonna's but they still have that little something special that makes them standout from your normal lashes.

These won't be for every bride but for those that are considering wearing false eyelashes these offer a unique and unexpected way to add some fun to your bridal look even if you just add them for the reception!

The Shu lashes are available at your local Sephora for $25.
