This is my honest review on Flirt Cosmetics Flashes.
For those who don’t know what this product is, it is a Lash Applicator. The purpose of the device is to make applying falsies quicker and easier. Before trying this applicator out, I had never put on faux lashes before. So I was pretty excited when I learned about them.
I watched a few videos on Youtube and it seemed like every makeup Youtuber had an issue with it because they were used to putting their lashes on with tweezers or by hand. The Flirt Cosmetics website provided videos with better instructions on how to get the lashes on perfectly and it seemed pretty easy. They looked gorgeous and I felt like I would naturally succeed because it looked like it was for Falsie beginners. Man, was I wrong.
The white-out-gun like dispenser made swiping glue onto the lashes very simple, by locking them into place
The actual lashes themselves seemed like decent set of three piece lashes,
The design on the packaging and tool itself is very cute and modern.
[Left with flashes. Right without.]
The cost of the actual product: $28.00 for 44 individual lashes, [comparson: Kiss Ever EZ Lashes Trio Lash Set 30ct cost $5.99]
The lashes are NOT reusable.
When locking the lashes in place, the applicator flattens the lashes causing the lashes to stick straight up instead of curling
The applicator pops up when releasing the lashes causing the lashes to move out of place.
The applicator refuses to let go of the lashes once you’ve released the lock
Flirt Cosmetics Flashes was a wonderful idea, in theory, but it has some kinks to work out. I enjoy the lashes provided in the applicator but I’m not a fan of the applicator itself. I will continue to use the lashes without the help of the device.
Have you tried Flashes out? What did you think? Did you love them? Did you hate them? Will you be buying more? Do you want to try them out yourself? Send me a message and let me know!
