I LOVE wearing falsies! I wear em almost everyday cause they boost my confidence so much (dw my lashes are fine. They are healthy, just not as long or full as I’d like.) I mainly wear everyday to sometimes dramatic if i’m wearing eyeshadow. I don’t use itsy bitsy lashes but i’m also not wearing 25mm ones. I feel like almost every single post/comment on here are trashing on them and now i’m feeling insecure about them 🥲
I’m not a fan of the super over the top ones, but I like the more natural ones with some looks.
I think when people are complaining about it they are often referring to the really over the top ones, especially when they’re out of place with the rest of someone’s look. A pale blonde with intensely black, thick, mile long lashes dressed to go out for a casual lunch just looks kind of odd, the same way as really over the top glittery shadow or clothes that would fit in better at a club would in that context. I think the heavier ones sometimes look good on people who look like they’d potentially have thick, dark, long lashes anyways, but they look disconcerting to me on someone who clearly wouldn’t. When they’re not to my taste it’s a combo of them not suiting the person, and them being too much for the rest of their current look. Over the top lashes might work with equally elaborate makeup and a flashy outfit, not so much with jeans and a hoodie.
That said, if you love the over the top ones wear them! Some people do love them, and someone else who likes that aesthetic will appreciate the look. Nobody is going to like every look, and that’s ok, if you love the look then rock it.
