Okay, so remember when I spent literally three hours trying to apply individual lashes for my cousin's wedding and ended up looking like I had a fight with a spider? Yeah, that's when I discovered strip lashes could actually look natural. Not gonna lie, finding the Lily style was a revelation. These give you that "I woke up like this" volume without the whole dramatic Instagram influencer vibe.

What Makes These Different
Girl, the first thing you notice about these lashes is how soft they feel. Like, actually soft, not that plastic-y feeling you get with cheaper strips. The 3D faux mink means they have multiple layers that create depth, so instead of one flat strip sitting on your lashes, you get this gorgeous fluttery effect that looks way more expensive than it is.
What really sets these apart is the double and triple layered construction that gives you that luxurious 3D volume effect. These aren't your basic single-layer strips - the layering technique creates natural-looking dimension that mimics how your real lashes would look if they were just naturally perfect.
Here's the thing about the Lily style specifically: it gives you that wide-eyed, feminine look without being too much for daytime. Back when I was doing makeup professionally, these were my go-to for clients who wanted to look polished but not overdone. Perfect for that job interview or first date where you want to look put-together but still like yourself.
The natural color works with literally any eye color too. Not that harsh jet black that can look super fake in daylight. These blend seamlessly whether you're blonde, brunette, or anywhere in between.
The Real Application Tips
Honestly, the trick with these is all in the band. Since they're strip lashes, you need to make sure that band curves to fit your eye shape. Before you even think about glue, hold them up to your lash line and trim from the outer edge if needed. I usually cut about 2-3mm off, but your eyes might be different.
Here's my foolproof method: bend the lash band into a C-shape for about 10 seconds before applying. This makes them way more flexible and they'll sit flush against your lash line instead of popping up at the corners (we've all been there). Use tweezers to place them as close to your natural lash line as possible. Start from the center, then press down the inner corner, and finish with the outer corner.
Pro tip from my salon days: apply your glue and wait about 30 seconds until it gets tacky. If you try to stick them on immediately, they'll slide around and you'll end up frustrated. Trust the process.
Bottom Line
Real talk, if you're tired of spending forever on individual lashes or just want something that makes you look naturally gorgeous in literally 30 seconds, these are it. The Lily style hits that sweet spot between natural and noticeable. Quality faux mink that feels soft, a style that works for literally any occasion, and that perfect not-too-dramatic volume. Your morning routine just got so much easier, girl.
