What do you think of these Paper Eyelashes – fashion forward of faux paux? http://www.paperself.com/ps%20%20all.html

 To tell the trutch, my first reaction was ewwwwww…but they’re very editorial-looking. Sure,for a party or photo-op, why not? Def. not for the office! (I feel the paper would be somewhat distracting on the eyelids for the wearer, but who knows?) They may take off unlike Lancome’s tattoo decal eyebrows from way back when…
From the website:
Inspired by the art of Chinese paper-cutting, Eyelashes blend an element of traditional culture with contemporary design.
Intricately cut and delicately pretty, Eyelashes are available in three styles, each infused with symbolic meaning rooted in Chinese culture:
Horses: symbolic of success
Peony: for happiness and good fortune
Peach blossom: a symbol of love and romance
Unique and expressive, Eyelashes come in two sizes: accentuate the corners of your eyes with the smaller lashes for a subtle daytime look, or make a statement with the full lashes for a special occasion.

 The company that makes them is currently building an online store – where perhaps they will be available for purchase in the future.  (They also note on their website that Lost in Beauty is a stockist for these eyelashes – but they don’t have an online store; you have to contact the company directly for purchasing.)  Or you could always try DIY’ing them!

Thanks for your question!

  2. Visually, they are beautiful little works of art, but IDK about for real life. They definitely look fab in these pictures, though!

    Great blog!

  3. Hmm… not sure. I do think they would be cool for editorial shoots- definitely close ups, so you could see the details and colors. I think the only person who could get away with it in their daily wear would be Lady Gaga haha :P

    I think they look great. But more for editorials and photo shoots, than real life.
