PRODUCT REVIEW: Model 21 Eyelashes


If you know me, then you know I LOVE false eyelashes. I love wearing them on a regular basis because they're fun and it makes all the difference when you're doing makeup looks. With lashes, the more dramatic the better! Well, to a certain extent. But I do prefer fuller, longer lashes rather than my own natural lashes.

I'm not all about choosing brands when it comes to false eyelashes. If it looks good, I'm wearing it! That's just how I am. Model 21 lashes have a variety of lashes to choose from for a great price. And considering that you could wear certain lashes more than once, you could never run out of these. All of Model 21 lashes are 100% handmade out of real hair (black hair-like fibers for the more dramatic lashes).

OVERALL: 
I'm not at all picky when it comes to lashes. I would wear lashes of any brand as long as they came out looking good. These lashes are definitely comparable to popular brand lashes such as Ardell, Andrea, Red Cherry, Bliss, etc.

I love the fact that the band of the lashes (the part that holds all the hairs together) is very flexible. Some lashes make their bands too thick and it makes the lashes harder for it to stay on my lash line. Other lash bands are too thin, making it too flimsy beyond my control. These are perfect.

These lashes also blend really well with my natural eyelashes. They're light, easy to apply, and there's no need for trimming.

One thing I'd have to say that could probably bother other people is the packaging. I personally don't have a problem with the packaging but to other people they might not prefer it this way. But overall it's not a huge problem. 

Another thing is the tape that the lashes stick to on the box is very sticky so I suggest using tweezers to remove them otherwise the hairs can be pulled and you could ruin the look of them. So delicate hands are needed!

WOULD I RECOMMEND THIS PRODUCT? Yes
WOULD I PURCHASE AGAIN? Yes

  1. I really love model 21 lashes, steph from makeup babble sent me a box for my freelancings and I love it! I keep reminding myself to stock up because theyre hella cheap for that many.

    only thing I don't like the shiny-ness of them, like you can kinda tell theyre fake once you see the shine.

  4. @Soo If you read my disclosure I mention that these lashes were provided by the company. So no, I did not purchase these. So I can't really tell you how quick their shipping is if you were to order from their website. They did seem pretty fast about sending these out to me after I mentioned which lashes I wanted to try out. They came to me in less than a week.

  5. I love the lashes! I could care less about the brand of lashes too. As long as it does the job then I'm happy. :) I'll have to try these out. I love that they come in a huge set because falsies don't last long with me.

  12. Sounds like some great falsies! I wish I was better at applying them. Then I'd wear them more, but I hear you on the bands! I think that's why I get so frustrated with some falsies!
