This is gonna start off really random but I was born with mono eye-lids. I remember growing up being jealous of my sister's eyes because she has pretty prominent double eyelids and I have always wanted them too. I'd pick up those double eyelid stickers and start using them for one or two weeks before giving up. Really a pain in the ass to stick em on my eyes every single day!
I heard from people that those are pretty effective but you'd have to use them for at least 6 months to a year EVERYDAY before you can see results! Imagine how many stickers you'd have to use! I still use them every now and then, just in case lol Coz I currently have one mono lid and one double eyelid which is kinda annoying because it's really obvious. I managed to get a double lid on one eye and that's because I used to wear false eyelashes constantly and the eyelashes created a crease in my eye. Left eye, to be precise.
A couple of years ago I came across this really cool double eyelid fiber which sounded really perfect for those who wanted to have creases. It's really thin and you can stick em on your eyelid and it won't be obvious unlike those regular ugly stickers! Finally ordered them through e-bay and it arrived 2 weeks later from Hong Kong. It costs me around BND$17. Kinda expensive, but I was curious!
Mezaik Double Eyelid Stretch FiberThe one I paid for comes in 60 fibers per pack. If I'm not mistaken, Sasa.com sells these too for around the same price!
Mezaik Double Eyelid Stretch FiberOkay so I have no idea what the 'AB' on the box stands for...
The idea behind using such a thin strand is that you can use them on your eyelids and 1) they are not obvious 2) you can use makeup on top of the fiber! Unlike the sticker. I know a lot of people use makeup on top of the double eyelid sticker and that really spoils the whole look for me, especially when the makeup is really thick and suddenly there's this sticker on the girl's eyelid. So distracting!
Mezaik Double Eyelid Stretch FiberBasically all you need to do is pull the plastic cover and the fiber will appear and you just need to stick it on your eye, where ever you need your crease to be. Then cut off the extra ends!
Me before and after using the Mezaik Double Eyelid Stretch FiberAs you can see from my before picture my right eye is mono lidded. The fiber did give me double lids but I couldn't get it to balance with my left eye. Need more practice I guess. Unfortunately, this fiber is said to work best on people who already have double lids and wishes to make the crease higher. For an entirely mono lid eye, I find that it works on me but it doesn't last that long at all! I give it a few hours tops. After that the fiber just loses its function and it'll just sit there on my mono lidded eye fml
Well, these are my two cents on the Mezaik Double Eyelid Stretch Fiber. I'm kinda disappointed with it. I keep wishing it would work for me so that I can finally do my makeup and go out with balanced double lidded eyes!
well girl, you are very pretty just as you are. the product sounds like a let down if it doesn't last that long- but i see the purpose and think its cool either way. =-)
ReplyDelete@IridescentColors aww thank you! :))yeah its unique no doubt haha
ReplyDeletemy eyelids arent equal too D; but i never use eyelid sticker before. maybe you should try the eyelid glue one instead? heard its better than stickets. x)
ReplyDelete@qasrina yeah ive tried the glue one too. Not really impressive either :/
ReplyDeletedear, i used to buy japanese magazine & from the models tutorial, they used the eye glue before the mezaik is placed on the eye. so eye glue first then the mezaik.
ReplyDeletepls try their method & do share if it works. :D
with lotsa love!
@gina Really?? That's interesting! Will definitely try them out some time. Thanks for the tip! :))
