Lashify Trial and Review
DIY Lash Extensions? How hard can it be?
Alina, our Content Manager over here at the Original HMF, is here with a guest post about a product called Lashify!
According to their website:
“Lashify® is the inimitable DIY luxury lash extension system designed to apply our innovative Gossamer® lashes using our patented Underlash™ technique. Our award-winning system delivers easy-to-use, damage-free lashes with infinite possibilities for all eye shapes!
Our system of Gossamer® lashes, bonds, sealers, and Fuse Control™ Wand is designed to work together. You can apply and remove daily, or wear for up to 10 days!
It's all a matter of preference, lifestyle, application method, and proper care. Our Gossamer® lashes were designed to be virtually weightless in order to provide a damage-free experience, relieving your natural lashes from any weight and tension.
After several uses, the Gossamer lash will slowly disintegrate, as it's intended to in order to prevent damage to your natural lashes.”
In the video below, Alina explains the entire Lashify system, tries them out for the first time, then shares her final thoughts after a couple of weeks of using them.
Final thoughts about Lashify:
The Good:
They get easier to apply the more you practice! After doing it twice, it was a breeze.
They are extremely comfortable. By having separate sections, stretchy spines that hold the individual fibers in place, and flexible glue – they really don’t weigh a thing and stretch with your skin, even when you rub your eyes.
They are reusable. If you soak them for a bit in alcohol after taking them off, you can typically save around half of them for your next use.
The options are endless! There are many shapes, colors, variations in thickness, and the combinations are infinite.
They look great for up to 5 days with absolutely no problems, which for Alina, is plenty of time.
The Bad:
It does take some time, in the beginning, to realize how much glue you need and how much is too much. It also takes practice applying the individual sections so that you get them on at the right angle and distance from your waterline.
The entire system is a bit pricey, but not as pricey as quality lash extensions applied by a professional
If you are considering trying Lashify for yourself:
Get the Control Kit! It’s totally worth it.
Practice, practice, practice! Don’t expect them to look perfect the first time – and try them at home before using them for a special occasion or vacation
Don’t buy the Night Bond!
The Bondage adhesive is now Alina’s favorite! She used it alone, so it’s a one-step adhesive process instead of two and was able to extend the life of that application to 7 full days without touching them.
Have fun with them! After you use the Gossamers that come in the Control Kit, you’ll have a better idea of which type may fit your eyes better, and with the Membership, you can try different styles to see what you like best.
