The dog ate my eye lashes!

MAC eyelashes #36 just in case you want a matching pair!

I am by no means a girly girl or a trend setter. I do my best to keep in decent shape, dress within the decade and indulge in a little makeup. Several of my friends who are much more fashionable than me own fake eye lashes. They convinced me that I should give them a try. I purchased my first set of eye lashes from the MAC counter. I had no idea there were so many options for eye lashes. I went with a conservative length and thickness. There are some pretty dramatic lash options out there. What is really conservative about buying eye lashes…seems pretty crazy to me. It took me a little while to not feel like I had spiders on my eyes but by the end of the evening I was rocking those lashes.

This bouquet is just beautiful, it smells just as it looks!

My brother got married this past weekend and I decided to pull out the lashes to complete the hair and bridesmaid dress. It was a special occasion so it seemed perfectly natural to put on the fake eye lashes. After a long wedding day, I got home and removed my eye lashes. I placed them on the bathroom counter but somehow in the morning when I went to place them in the case and they were gone. I could not figure out who would have taken my eye lashes.  I found myself looking high and low yelling “have you seen my eye lashes?” My husband’s family was staying at our house and my desperate search for my eye lashes was entertaining I am sure.

About 15 minutes later my sister-in-law said “I thought I saw the dog with something in her mouth”. I heard some odd coughing and hacking coming from the dining room. I walked down stairs to find my crumbled up stuck together dog slobbered eye lashes. By this point my eye lashes really did look like a large spider. Let just face it this farm girl is not meant to wear fake eye lashes. I will stick with the more realistic all natural approach, at least until I have time to get to the MAC counter for a new pair.
