They look like normal falsies but have tiny magnets on them. I got the natural ones so they weren't too out there. My first go was a bit fiddly but after that I got the hang of it and I also watched a few videos on application which helped.
For a false lash gumby like me, once I got the hang of it it really worked well and it was good not to be fiddling around with glue.
I thought they looked natural and were heaps easier than the more traditional ones. Next time I might branch out and get the longer ones as I think i'm a convert.
Glam Pro Magnetic Eyelash system by Manicure consists of two products: a magnetising liquid eyeliner, and magnetic eyelashes, both of which are sold separately.
Once the eyeliner had been applied and was completely dry, and mascara had been applied to my natural lashes (see separate eyeliner review for tips), I lifted the Natural magnetic "Willow" eyelashes out of their case. They're lightweight, reusable, and simply clip onto the eyeliner with three little magnets situated on the lash band (one in the centre, and one on each end).
To apply, I hold the false lash with my fingertips and place it as close to my natural lashes as I can, lining the outer edge of the lash with the outer corner of my eye before sticking down the centre magnet. I then attach the outer magnet and then secure the inner magnet, and Voila! No mess, no fuss, perfectly blended lashes. If you need to blend your natural lashes into the falsies, simply use your finger to curl and push your natural lashes upwards. To remove them, grab the outer edge of the lash and gently pull them off.
One thing I didn't like about this eyelash system is that the video on Manicare's website says you can simply pull the "Willow" lashes off and clip on the more dramatic "Khloe" lashes to go from a day to night look. When I removed the "Willow" lashes to show someone what the magnets looked like, it pulled off chunks of eyeliner off my eyelid, so it's not as simple as they say. The magnetic eyeliner does need to be touched up before they can be reapplied, its not as simple as take off and stick back on.
This happened the second and third times that I used the lashes, and I double checked the Manicare video to see if it happened to their "Glambassador" as well, and it looks like it does, although they sneakily cut the video and she comes back with perfect eyeliner before putting fresh lashes on. If you know what you're looking for, you can see where the magnet lifts off her eyeliner in the video, just before they cut the scene. (I'll post a pic of what happened with mine on the Photo Wall).
Overall, this magnetic eyelash system was much easier to use than traditional lashes and eyelash glue. They're easier to fit, as there's nothing sticky on the eyelash band, so you're able to place them right up against your lashes and move them around before having to clip them in place. I loved trialling this system and even though the initial cost is a bit pricey (it's the eyeliner that's expensive), once you have the eyeliner, replacing the lashes if/when they wear out is actually not that expensive. I'd recommend this eyelash system and will definitely continue to use them.
Tips: I tightline my upper lashes with pencil eyeliner before applying the liquid eyeliner and magnetic lashes. This helps to prevent it looking like there's a large gap between my natural lashes and the falsies, if I don't get them on perfectly snug.
