    Default Bad for eyelashes?

    I just started wearing fake eye lashes and have noticed that my real lashes don't look as full as before. And last week when I took my lashes off a few of my real one's came off with them!
    Will my lashes keep falling out if I keep wearing my fake one's?
    I really don't want to give up wearing fake lashes I love the dramatic effect they produce and have had so many compliment's on my eye's lately.
    I have heard that it takes months for your real eyelashes to grow back though so if this is a common thing that comes with fake lashes I guess I will have to give them up.
    Has anyone else had experience with this problem and is there something I can put on my lashes to make them grow back?
    ???

    Unless you're removing them incorrectly (roughly), then your eyelashes should be fine. You lose your lashes on a daily basis and unless you notice more than 3-4 falling out in your hand, then I wouldn't worry. The reason your eyelashes don't look as full is because you keep wearing the fake ones. Try to alternate between false ones and your natural ones. Also, try some of the new body building mascara's out there on the natural days.

    Actually, Whirlerz recommended a brand in a previous thread. I think it was by Ulta. The stuff I've been using sux (Rimmel waterproof crap) and I wouldn't suggest it. Let me see if I can dig up the thread for you....

    I wore fake eyelashes for a couple of years. I traveled for work and only wore them like maybe 50 times a year. I did definitely notice thinner lashes. Its inevitable because some will always come uot when you take them off. Yhe glue and the lashes pull out the real lashes. I havent worn them in around 2 years and my real lashes still dont look as thick as they use to.

    Yes, fake lashes do damage your real lashes. If you are applying them properly, they will stick to the root of your lashes, and will pull. Just like bleaching your hair or wearing acrylic nails, just crap you have to deal with.

    I found that putting some Vaseline on my real lashes at night helps them a bit but its messy...

    Lancome's Definicils is by far the best mascara I have ever used.

    Hate to post yet another idea for a great mascara, but Benefit Big Bad Gal mascara works great for me. They make my lashes so long and thick that they look fake. I love it.

    maybe just try using fake lashes at the side of your eyes, and try not to get the glue on your real lashes. Blend in the band with black liner.
