Happy National Lash Day!

[ElizaPRO]

Hi SEPHORA Community!

I’m Eliza Davila, a Sephora PRO Artist and lash lover. I recently got my hands on The Effortless Collection from Velour Lashes and, let me tell you, I screamed when I opened the box! The first thing I noticed was the length of the band and how little prep is involved when applying. The shortened lash band is perfect for exact placement and takes the guesswork out of how to fit the lash properly to the eye! I decided to test these out over the span of the week! I wore them at the gym, (YES to the gym with my regular makeup from work) as well as getting ready for date night! I seriously felt so naturally glam, and had ZERO irritation or lifting! This Effortless Collection Launches on 2/19, which also happens to be National Lash Day!

Above are all the styles I received with the names of each set. Also pictured is the Velour lash kit complete with 1 pair of silk lashes, mini lash applicator and white latex mini lash adhesive.

The photos on the right show the lashes with the cases removed. Lash styles in order from left to right:

1. Lash kit (loved the quality of the lashes themselves as well as the glue and applicator. They did not spare quality in this set at all!) Featuring “Would I Lie?”
2. “Short & Sweet”-Lashes that look like your own but just a hint more! Perfect for any event and anyone looking to try false lashes!
3. “Barely There”- These lashes were super natural and can be worn more on the center of the eye or towards the outer corner for a lash boost! Loved these!
4. ”For Real though?”- These reminded me of lash extensions and gave me all of the length I desired without feeling like a heavy lash! Another pick of mine that as a go-to lash!
5. “Just a hint”- Perfect added touch for a cat eye or just to boost length and volume to the outer edges! This style was featured for my perfect “weekend” lash.

Let me break down how I applied my lashes so they were perfect for the gym:

• Apply a light layer of mascara and liner to help conceal lash band.
• Gently remove lashes from the package. I like to use the side of my thumb.
• Once removed hold up to eye for proper placement. Flex the band back and forth so it can curve naturally with your eye shape.
• Apply a small amount of glue to the lash band and let dry for 30 seconds.
• I like to use the applicator and line up the lash with the center of my iris. Use applicator to adjust faux lashes close to the natural lash line.
• Shown wearing "Just a Hint"

If you prefer in-person help, don't forget that you can always get a free lash application at your local Sephora with the purchase of any lashes.

I will be checking in here to chat so please comment below if you have any lash or application questions! I'll be checking this thread and can't wait to hear from you!

Oops I don’t mean the band length, more the size of the actual lashes. I don’t like how unnatural it looks when the top of the lashes are almost reaching my eyebrows but it’s just a personal preference

@sandHappy National Lash Day!! LASH LOVER!! ❤️

Happy National Lash Day! @ElizaPRO  Those lashes really do look natural on you, very pretty.  Lashes scared me, i've only worn them i believe twice in my life.  I don't think that it's for me. I love the look of dramatic lashes.  But I wear glasses and they would get in the way 😞 

[ElizaPRO]

@darkiceis  Awe don't let one bad experience stop you! We can help you at Sephora! There is definitely a style in The Effortless Collection for you! I would reccomend "Short and Sweet!" They aren't that long and I wore them everywhere! The lash band and the style are really important when getting lashes to feel comfortable. I think you would like these! Stop in at your local Sephora and if you are feeling like its worth a try, they can teach you for free with the purchase of any faux lashes! I know sometimes it can seem like a lot but the right style will make you feel so good! I usually wear really dramatic styles and these made me feel like myself. I hope that helps you!

Wow those are all so beautiful. I tried to wear a pair for Valentine's day that I bought in a Tarte kit but they were WAY too long (They literally reached all the way to my eyebrows 😂) If I do use any lashes, I usually end up using individuals but they never really have that "oomph." Maybe the set that were "just abit more then natural" would work for me as I have very hooded eyes.

@Maeora  Thank you!! I love all lashes!!! I seriously could be called a lash lady! When I pack my suitcase for travel I take like six styles! haha! These are a perfect design for quick easy wear! If you need to get a lash application with tips and tricks, just stop in at your local Sephora! They can help you every step of the way! Lash application is free with the purchase of any faux lashes! They can help you choose a set that works for what you want!

Thanks! I Like the look of Just a Hint! @ElizaPRO

[ElizaPRO]

@sister13Thank you so much! I hope you have a fabulous National Lash Day! That style is one of my favorites!

Thank you for the thorough review, @ElizaPRO!!!  I love the idea of a shorter band because I always find myself cutting my lashes before applying.  You look amazing!!! ❤️

[ElizaPRO]

@Tamara76Thank you so much!! I love it too! It makes application so much easier and quick! ❤️

[PrettyPaint]

Thanks @ElizaPRO. The lashes look lovely! I have to admit that I’ve never worn faux lashes before. I have always been a bit nervous to try them, although I love the look. Maybe one of these days I can get the courage to try! 🙂

[ElizaPRO]

Thank you so much! These styles are perfect for you if you never tried lashes before! They do the trick without the weight! I personally will start carrying these in my kit to use for brides!! I love these! If you need lash courage go to Sephora! I know they will have the perfect person to help you!! They offer complimentary lash application with the purchase of any lashes! Happy National Lash Day!

Hi, @ElizaPRO!  These lashes look great on you!  I have trichotillomania...I pull out my eyelashes (and eyebrows).  Thus, I don't have any eyelashes.  Can I wear fake lashes without having real lashes?  I doubt it's worth the hassle, but I am curious!

[ElizaPRO]

Thank you so much! You can certainly wear false lashes and any eye makeup unless you have an allergy. These will be your favorite lashes you have ever used. These really made me feel like I had naturally more lashes! I do hope you get out there and try them! Please stop in at your local Sephora and they will help you with application and style selection! I am certain there is a style just for you! ❤️

[kromance]

That looks so nice! 👌I tried false lashes once and it was a horrible experience. But these look dope! Maybe ill venture down the false lashes route again.. 🙂 thanks for sharing! ❤️

[ElizaPRO]

@kromanceYou can totally do it! These are the perfect length to begin with! Make sure to stop in at Sephora if you need any help! They will make sure to guide you with every step and even help you choose the best style! To me that is a really key part! You will love these!!!

[melissapurple22]

These look great @ElizaPRO i have struggled with applying eyelashes do to have small eyes, most are way to big and need a lot of cutting and work to fit my eyes. This maybe what I have been looking for to make it an easier experience ☺️Thanks for sharing with us 

[ElizaPRO]

@melissapurple22This is exactly what you need! Lashes can sometimes feel a little intimidating for precisely that reason. These are perfect for all eye shapes and GREAT for smaller eyes! You will have no trouble applying these, plus you cant feel that band!! Such a plus! I hope you get a chance to try them out! I'm so happy you like the post! I hope to do more!

[GG84]

@ElizaPRO you can't even see the band AT ALL! These look incredible!! 'For Real Though' looks like a style I would like. I've been wearing Demi's lately but I'm up for a switch!!

[ElizaPRO]

@GG84I know!! I was even taken back by it!! These lashes are a game changer!!! Perfect for photography, or to keep in your kit. They truly are so well designed. ❤️ I hope you get a chance to try them out! They are not hard to apply at all!!
