Ive had mine done, it didnt make a huge difference to me as my eyelashes arent that fair, but it was noticable to an extent. If you have very fair eyelashes you will see a big difference and wont need mascara so id say it was worth it :) Its not that expensive so id say its worth a try :)

My eyelashes are soo short, life is so unfair :giggle: I will get round to getting myself booked in for a full set of individual lashes that last for ages though

I've had mine done at a salon a couple of times and really liked it, especially for hols etc when you don't want to wear make up during the day.

Like Scarlet, I have blonde ends to my lashes so made quite a difference for me.

I saw a DIY kit in Tesco the other day and considered it, but I'm a bit too scared to do it myself (DH would never help me out, he's too squeamish).

In a past life I was a beauty therapist :giggle: and tints was one of my favourite treatments to do as its so easy and gives great results.
But wouldn't ever do my own. You have to apply with a mascara wand when doing your own and don't think this gives as good results as applied with a brush is salon, plus I think its easier for the dye gets into your eyes which can be painful.

Ooh! I think I might get mine done sometime. I can't wear mascara - I hate the feeling of it (feels all gunky and like glue! :lol: ).

Wonder what colour would be best to go for. I'm about to have my hair dyed a really bright pinky red colour.

I did it!

Pleased with it. Chickened out of really dark so went for brown/black. As my lashes are so fair it has made a good difference but Id go for black next time. I would so not do it myself after knowing what is involved!

I used to do mine myself, it was about £8 for the box and was enough for quite a few months of use if not longer. I haven't done it in years, I may well start again. Our local salon charges £16 for a go, and to me that's not worth it, if it was cheaper then I'd consider it.

If anyone has a Boyes (http://www.boyes.co.uk/stores/store_finder.html) shop near you, they do kits for £4.99. Haven't tried mine out yet.

Ooh I'd love to see a pic. I'm still thinking about having them done. PM me if you don't want to put it on here? Go on, I'd really love to see the effect. :wink:
