I can throw one on and that's that. I can also have a professional look during the day with the strip and have a more dramatic look if I am going out that night. The down side is that I cry when I laugh so if I have a good chuckle, I am always afraid that my eyelash will detach. I also apply them after I've done my make-up, and if you are not careful you can get the adhesive on your eyelid and ruin your look. I use the dark individual adhesive; I think that it blends well with my dark mink lashes. I have found that the if clear glue has a tendency to turn white, or take on the color of the eye shadow I used that day and look dull.. I love individual mink lashes because I can customize them. My mink lashes are very short so I alternate two mini mink lashes with one short eyelash, until I reach the end of my eyelid. Once I've reached the end I add three medium mink lashes for a dramatic effect. This gives a great variation and natural appearance. Individual mink lashes are ideal, but can take a long time to learn how to do.

Although, they can last for quite a while up to a couple weeks, they can be cumbersome to take off. Or, if you don't apply one or two correctly one or two can detach and leave you with a gap, until the next time you can reapply them.

Shut your eyelid and pull it taut to one side 4. With tweezers place the eyelash in the center, as close to the lash line as possible and adjust accordingly 5.
