Instructions:

1.Use eyelash curler to make your eyelashes curly.

2. Take out a pair of Koji Takako Style Eyelash and gently flex them for around 10 times.
3. Apply adhesive on the lash cluster bands and wait until the adhesive is half-dry.
4. Press the lash clusters gently on your eyelid (close to the roots of your eyelashes).
5. Adjust the lash clusters until they are nicely mixed together with your eyelashes.

To remove:
1. Gently place wet cotton on your eyelids for 30 seconds, so that the adhesive of the lash clusters dissolves.
2. Gently remove the lash clusters from the outer corners.
3. Clear off the remaining adhesive on bands and place the lash clusters on tray for re-use.

MY PERSONAL REVIEW :

I adore false eyelashes. They wake up one's eyes instantly without having to apply coats of mascaras.I've tried a variety of false eyelashes, from subtle ones to dramatic ones, synthetic, handmade, cheap ones, branded ones, you name it. I've still a pretty large collection of false eyelashes sitting in my make up stash; many of which are deemed "white elephant" as of now as I've bought some in a dozen pairs boxes each and found out some of them are not suitable for me. Some made my eyes look like spider's legs or too overpowering. I've seen dolly lashes across various media and have also seen it at local beauty stores, my first impression was this: "ahh, another marketing gimmick to lure all the young girls to spend their moolah."
I saw the price tag which was pretty hefty for falsies. I'd say it's almost ten times more! The packaging is very pretty and enticing, i must admit. Well enticing enough for me to take a closer look at what's inside back then. The lashes look really natural and intricately arranged. I liked the fact that it has transparent bases as this mimick's one's eyelash base. I decided to give it a go to see for myself if this is all sheer marketing hype or good stuff that really works.

My favourite is No.1 and No. 2!Both gave me the dreamy-dolly gaze that's demure and it looks pretty natural too. Most falsies look good from afar, but it looks overpowering at close proximity. This one, however looks good near and far which I am pleased. It;s pricey though, to make it worth it, I take good care of it. I'm using Lancome's eye make up remover to remove the glue that's stuck to it after every usage. With proper care, I could use each pair up to 7-10 times to reduce costs per usage. I only use these for very special occasions. Some snapshots using Dolly Wink No. 1 and No. 2 below:
