The Best False Eyelashes for Sensitive Skin

I had to stop wearing false eyelashes; when I wore them, my eyes reacted and instead of having desirable eyes, I had red and swollen eyes, that were itchy and dry. Therefore, I had to layer on my mascara, as I love having long, thick luscious lashes! I am lucky enough to have naturally long and thick eyelashes, but in pictures natural eyelashes seem to be swallowed by the camera's flash, and I missed wearing them!

I previously wore 'Eyelure 107' eyelashes, which vary in price depending where you buy them from, but they're usually just over £5. These are long eyelashes all around the eye area, which I do like, and I am pictured wearing below (right). 

However, I think the glue was too strong, and after wearing for an evening my eyes started to swell.

I aimed to find a hypoallergenic eyelash glue, and as luck would have it, No7 have excelled again for us with sensitive skin! I decided I wanted a change from my usual Eyelure 107 eyelashes, and wanted something a little more natural. However, I have tried 'Eyelure 100' lashes, and the lashes were thinner and shorter than my natural lashes, so I wanted to find something in the middle.

I went to Boots, and had a long search through all the different types of eyelashes. I was either going to buy No7 'Hypo-allergenic Lash Adhesive', which comes in a large mascara-sized tube for £7.50, then buy a pair of eyelashes from another brand, but after a long decision I decided to buy 'No7 Lash 30 Exceptional Definition', which includes a small bottle of their hypo-allergenic lash adhesive.

I did need to add a little bit of mascara to the eyelashes to make them a little bolder, but I think it's because I am used to having high volume eyelashes. I applied the glue, waited a minute for it to go tacky, and then applied it to my eyes. Usually, my eyelids start to tickle and itch. However, I did not notice that these eyelashes were on and experienced no irritation all evening.

I would definitely recommend using No7's Hypo-allergenic Lash Adhesive, but I may keep looking to find my perfect shape false eyelashes.
