Anyone try those false, eyelashes that use the magnetic eyeliner? I’m curious if they are easier to apply that the glue on style. Continue

anyone without lashes ever use false ones? I've been told it won't work for me because I don't have any lashes to support the false ones. Continue

Anyone try lattise for eyelash growth. My dermatologist prescribed it for me a couple of days ago. I miss my lashes more than my scalp hair or eyebrows.

"We prefer the glue on style. It seems to give more confidence and security. Magnetic easier, but I am afraid of them falling off.....
Has anyone found any waterproof eyeliner that works? Really need that this summer! Thanks."
"Great question! I’ve been wondering the same thing. I hope someone chimes in with opinions. Do you find the glue irritates your eyes? I have very sensitive dry eyes so have been reluctant to try the glue."

The eyeliner is magnetic and the lashes stick to it. No glue! I haven't tried them, but I am so tempted."

Eyebrows
Posted on December 27, 2017 at 4:28pm 3 Comments 0 Likes
anyone out there have experience with permanent makeup? I’m thinking of getting my eyebrows done. I’m tired of having to draw them on each morning. Micro blading seems the way to go. More natural looking. Any thoughts?
Wigs or not

Since buzzing what was left of my hair I haven't had the desire to wear any wigs. It just doesn't feel like me. I have also lost my eyebrows and lashes. The loss of my eyelashes almost feels worse than loosing my scalp hair. However, with makeup I am coping.
Bald

So.... Had a very severe bout of hair loss. Couldn't hide the bald spots. With the support of my husband, daughters and great friends, I shaved it all off. Very freeing! My husband says I look sexy, my daughters love it. I feel supported. I have gone out to dinner and shows without a wig or any head covering. Since I live n Arizona, I have lots of hats too. Having fun with eye makeup.

I love fashion magazines. I can't really explain why but I love the artistry of design. Have you ever noticed (those of you who read them) that when they publish a feature about "hair loss" alopecia is NEVER mentioned??????? Why is that?? Do we need to have a louder public voice?? Just a thought.
