Genetics bestowed upon me wimpy, ho-hum lashes… as well as then made me so clumsy that I couldn’t apply false ones to save my life. Oh, the wonderful eyelash irony!
Enter the Shu Uemura lash bar, aka false eyelash nirvana, where the lashes are cost effective as well as the visit booking process couldn’t be easier.

Would you believe a trip to eyelash heaven is really quite darn affordable? From a Shu lash bar, all you do is purchase any type of pair of their false lashes, which run from $16 to about $50 a pair, as well as a Shu makeup artist will apply your new lashes (and response any type of concerns you may have about them) for free!
Gratis rules, however I understand you work difficult for your money, so to stretch those dolla-dolla-bills a wee bit further, here’s a excellent money saving idea I got from Jeccica, a Shu Uemura makeup artist as well as manager (and all around rad girl) at the San Francisco Fillmore store: get a pair like false Eyelashes Luxe ($20) as well as ask the makeup artist to cut one of the lashes in half.
Ask the artist to apply each of the cut halves to your outer lashes only. It’s a basic method to get a sexy, yet natural-looking eyelash boost. save that uncut lash for future use. cut that poor kid in half as well as you’re great to opt for a new pair. It’s like getting two sets of lashes for the cost of one, yah?
As if that wasn’t great enough, the icing on the cake: Shu’s lashes are likewise reusable. just take care when you eliminate them (gently pulling them off), as well as store them in their original packaging to keep them clean as well as safe. now don’t you feel clever?
Shu makes setting up a lash bar visit easy. A week before you’d like to visit, stop by or phone call your nearest Shu Uemura counter as well as ask to routine an appointment. A lash application takes about 20 minutes.
On the day of my appointment, I satisfied up with Jeccica at Shu’s Fillmore store early on Saturday morning. We began by going over the type of lash look I wanted, as well as she showed some samples as well as explained the process.
Hmmm…
I had grand plans for grocery buying after the lash bar, so the rational part of my brain whispered, “Choose something demure. You’re going to Safeway to get bananas,” however the wanna-be-eyelash-diva in me snapped her fingers as well as responded with, “Girlfriend, you ain’t right here for subtle!”
I ended up going for broke as well as selected the brown Feather false Eyelashes ($25), hand-crafted from feathers to look like butterflies. Oh, purty.
First, Jeccica lined my upper lash line with a black liquid eyeliner pen. While cute, lining the upper lashes serves a functional purpose, too. If you look carefully at a pair of unapplied false lashes, you’ll notice a thin band at the base. A black liquid liner assists to hide that band.
Next, to blend my genuine lashes into the false ones as well as provide the completed product a a lot more sensible appearance (*ahem*), Jeccica curled my lashes with a Shu Uemura eyelash curler, complying with up with a coat of Fiber Xtension Lengthening Mascara in black.
Gently pressing with a thumb on the base of each lash pops them out of their bit cases. I assumption I have smallish eyes since the lashes I selected were a touch as well long for my upper lash line. No issue for Jeccica — with a scissors, she cut away the excess from the ends with the longer feathers to make them much better in shape the shape of my eyes.
Now, taking the eyelash adhesive in one hand as well as one of the false lashes in the other, Jeccica used a thin line of Eyelash Adhesive glue to the band at the base of the lash. The glue applies white however dries remove after a few minutes.
She set the lash carefully into location on my upper lash line…
After repeating the exact same process with the other lash, we were done. Woot! Wimpy lashes no’ mo’!
I understand these eyelashes make me look a lil’, um, nutty, however believe it or not, these lashes were not the craziest ones in the store!
These hand-crafted beauties are from the premium (read: pricy as well as restricted edition) false lash collection. Baştan aşağı…
Premium brown Feather false Eyelashes ($50) – hand-crafted brown feather eyelashes influenced by the butterfly
Premium Radiant Yellow false Eyelashes ($50) – hand-crafted feather false eyelashes in a rustic yellow as well as orange as well as accented with a white flare finish
Premium Blunt Blue false Eyelashes ($50)-Parlak mavide el yapımı sahte kirpikler, siyahla vurgulanmış
Ve elbette, aynı şekilde bu sürükleme kraliçesi layık, ultra şiddetli premium radyant sarı sahte kirpikler gibi düştüm…
Sonunda ortaya çıkan lil ‘beyaz tüylere dikkat ediyor musunuz? Cidden, kız arkadaş. Sıcak! Sporladığım kahverengi olanlar, glam’ı bakkal koşuma kesinlikle getirirken (ona muz hakkında soru sorduğumda katipin anlaşmasını görmeliydin), bir sonraki görüşümde bu sarı sevgilileri takıyorum. Belki de diğer “hipster” uğraklarımı, yani kütüphaneye, çamaşırhaneye ve kitapçı LOL’a bakmadan önce çok daha maceracı olacağım!
Size en yakın Shu Uemura tüccarını keşfetmek için, hem bizi hem de dünya çapında yerleri telefon numaraları olan (randevunuzu rutin olarak) listeleyen Shu Uemura web sitesine bakın. San Francisco Körfez Bölgesi’ndeyseniz, San Francisco’daki Fillmore Street mağazasına uğrayın. Mağazanın kendisi de çarpıcı ve şehirdeki tercih ettiğim topluluklardan birinde bulundu (yakın kafelerden birinde kahve için durun) ve makyaj sanatçıları da oh-çok dostu.
Bu benim tercih ettiğim Shu Uemura makyaj sanatçısı Jeccica ile!
Shu mağazası aynı şekilde bir ruj cennet ülkesi!
İşten son zamanlarda sersemletmenin yanı sıra telaşlı oldu, bu yüzden bugün erken gitmem gerekiyor, ancak hey, hayatta kalacağım. Umarım hava durumu güneşli kalır çünkü ev aldığımda gerçekten uzun bir koşu seçmek istiyorum!
Buradaki birkaçımız, fitnessimiz üzerinde çalışmak hakkında sohbet ediyoruz. Dün gece, uykuya dalarken, Mayıs ayında yaklaşan San Francisco Körfezi’ne Breakers Race’e koşmaya inandım. Şehirle 7 mil koşu. Daha önce yaptım, ancak bana yardım et! Son kez yıllar önceydi. Şimdi, kovalanmadığım sürece 7 mil koşmaya inanılan bana çılgınca görünüyor. Ancak göreceğiz. İdeal olarak bugünün deneme çalışması beni etkiliyor.
