BEAUTY BAR: Long Luscious Lashes

July 28th, 2015 at 2:00am

If you’re anything like me, mascara and an eyelash curler is an absolute MUST for my daily makeup routine. If I don’t have at least two coats of black mascara on my lashes, I don’t feel ready to conquer my day. I always find myself reaching for the mascaras that claim to give you the false eyelash look, because who doesn’t love long dramatic lashes? But imagine rising in the a.m. with perfectly sculpted lashes and literally being able to say “I woke up like this.” Well, that dream could be your new reality with eyelash extensions. This trend is all the rage and it allows you to have fuller, darker and longer lashes that make your eyes truly stand out from the crowd.

This Fashionista got her first eyelash extensions for a wedding she was in, and ever since then she’s been hooked. These lashes are a beauty routine that require upkeep with regular salon visits about every four to six weeks depending on how you care for your lashes. This Fashionista doesn’t mind the regular maintenance and special care in order to have perfect, effortless, long and luscious lashes. She says it’s totally worth the time and money because it makes her feel beautiful and glamorous 24/7.

We can’t ignore the supercute outfit that this Fashionista is wearing, so let’s take a moment to appreciate her very nautical and patriotic summer look that she has going on here. Her white and blue striped strapless dress is perfect for any summer outing and the white rope tie belt around the waist offers a very sailor-esque look and feel. She pulled her entire outfit together by accessorizing with a chunky red statement necklace. And last, but not least, this Fashionista had the cutest manicure ever! She gets her nails done and designed according to what holiday or special event is going on. Her nails were looking fabulously decorated with the MLB team, the Cincinnati Reds’ colors and logos in honor of the All-Star Game that happened in Cincinnati this past month.

Along with her perfect lashes, she swipes on a sheer pink lip stain and a rosy blush to complete her flawless beauty look. With part of your daily makeup routine such as applying mascara to achieve longer lashes already completed, it cuts your “getting ready” time down by a significant amount and let’s be honest, something as simple as that can definitely make life feel much more easier.

What’s on the BEAUTY BAR? To achieve this glowing and flawless look, you’ll need to find a salon that offers eyelash extensions, and you’ll need a sheer lip stain and rosy blush. If it’s not in your budget to get eyelash extensions done professionally at a salon, I would highly recommend trying out one of my all-time favorite mascaras, They’re Real by Benefit.
