Trend Alert: Bling As You Blink

I thought this was just a passing trend until I noticed that more and more cosmetics companies have jumped on the studded eyelash bandwagon.

I thought this was just a passing trend until I noticed that more and more cosmetics companies have jumped on the studded eyelash bandwagon. First it was Madonna who debuted her famous Diamond Shu Uemura Lashes that supposedly cost about $10K, and then Revlon created Jewel Lash Drops which allows you to bedazzle your own lashes with a squeezable gel that dries to a gem-like substance.

I guess this look is fine if you are going out clubbing, but never for daytime wear. Can you imagine anything hurting more than a rhinestone falling in your eye? Yeesh! Here are two different styles of variations on this studded lash trend that bestow you to bat your lashes and bling!

Valerie Beverly Hills has created a new set of glue on falsies called Black Mink with Rhinestone Band ($100). These lashes are made from mink and the band is adorned with clear stones. Inside the light purple suede box you'll not only find a mirror for convenient application, but also a tube of lash adhesive.

New Product Alert: Revlon Lash Jewels Eye Accents

Remember when Madonna showed off her mink-and-diamond Shu Uemura eye lashes in 2005?

Remember when Madonna showed off her mink-and-diamond Shu Uemura eye lashes in 2005? They reportedly cost about $10,000, but now you can create a similar look at home for a fraction of the cost. The latest limited-edition lash product from Revlon is called Lash Jewels Eye Accents. With just one twist at the base, this clear pen allows you to drop a dollop of crystalline gel onto the ends of your lashes. The gel then hardens into a soft ball and forms the look of jewels on your eye lashes.

I haven't tried this yet, but I am anxious to pick up a tube the next time I am at the drugstore. (For a firsthand account, check out ikitty13's review in Beauty Product Junkies.) Lash Jewels comes in four crystal tints: Precocious Pink, Smoldering Violet, Crystal Gaze (transparent), and Aqua Allure. Apply the jewel drops after you've applied your mascara. A bottle costs $14.95 and can be purchased online and at mass drugstores wherever Revlon products are sold.
