I'm considering getting eyelash extensions...but I heard that it makes your natural eyelashes weak and broken.  Is this true? and can you still apply mascara to your eyelashes with the extensions on?   Would you reccomend getting it?

Honestly, I don't know a whole lot about eyelash extensions. From what I understood having read about them, I was under the impression that they were essentially false lashes that you wore for a month at a time without reapplying glue.  

As to how this effects your actually lashes, I wouldn't know, but I would imagine that you could still wear mascara either way.   Personally, it sounds like an awful silly waste of money considering all of the very good mascaras out there now that fatten and lengthen lashes.  

If you do give it a whirl, drop me a line and let me know more about how it works.
