They Look Like Falsies, But These 3D Lashes Are Real

Younique 3D Fiber Lashes, Fiber Lash Mascara

Always a huge mascara fan, I'm never against trying out something new if it promises big, beautiful, bold lashes. My holy grail mascara has always been Covergirl Professional Super Thick Lash and I've never been able to find anything that can top it. But this—Younique's 3D Fiber Lashes—might just make it even better.

My cousin Lindsay, a Younique consultant, told me about this "mascara" recently and I knew I needed to test it out. I think what I love most about it is that you can still wear your favorite mascara with it, and it just adds a nice "pop" on top of your overall look. For those of you that don't know what these "3D Fiber Lashes" are—it's essentially a mascara & green tea fiber combo (it comes in two tubes) that you layer on top of your regular mascara. You apply a coat of your regular mascara, let it dry, apply a coat of their "transplanting gel," immediately swipe the fiber wand over your lashes—the fibers stick to your lashes and add instant length & volume—and then seal it with another coat of the transplanting gel. It's like a mascara/fiber sandwich! Removal is simple—all you need is warm water and makeup remover (depending on your mascara/eyeliner combo). Wash your face per your usual routine, and you'll see the fibers come right off.

At first, I was a bit of a skeptic. But after a coat of the 3D Fiber Lashes, I was a believer. See for yourself below in my before and after photos.

3D Fiber Lashes, I love you. And here's why... they are buildable. If you want to do one coat for a bit of added length and volume, it's all good. But if you want a truly dramatic, glam look, you can keep layering the fibers and they make your lashes bigger and bigger. Also, if you just want to just add length, simply add the transplanting gel & fibers to the tips—not the whole lash, as I did.

These 3D Fiber Lashes will transform the way you look at your regular mascara. I've worn the fiber lashes for the last two days, and today—without them—my lashes just don't have that added oomph. I'm telling you, this product is so great for creating that glam look. You will feel your eyes sparkle when you wear it. But that's just my two cents!

Also, 3D Fiber Lashes retail for about $29, which is definitely on the higher end of the price range, but when you think about how you only need to use a little bit at a time, you can really make this product last. If you've considered spending about that much on a higher-end mascara, this product is worth its weight in gold because it will deliver much more pack for the punch than any mascara ever could.

If you'd like to pick up a set of these 3D Fiber Lashes, head to my cousin Lindsay's page to place an order, or shoot her a quick email here. Thanks for supporting her business!

Aunie said...

Those are amazing!

Aunie said...

Oooh big lashes.. I may NEED this!!!!! ;)

Aunie said...

Thanks Pamela! Definitely thicker & more glam than what I'm used to so it's really fun to spice it up.

Aunie said...

Thanks girl! Think you'd ever give them a shot?

Aunie said...

I'm pretty sure it's a $29 purchase that you would NOT regret. I plan on purchasing again once my tube is gone. It's a new staple for those days when you really want to bat those eyes :)

Aunie said...

Gorgeous! I may need to look into this. I've learned to accept my tiny lashes, but having this on hand would be fun for special occasions... or just any old "I feel so tried/crappy, and I need a pick-me-up" day!

Aunie said...

Lindsay! :) I think you would love this stuff--though you don't need a single product or word of affirmation to make you more beautiful than you already are! I agree, I'm going to rock it on special occasions or fun nights out! I think you might really need to consider it, just for the heck of it.

Aunie said...

This is definitely something to consider! My issue is length, I get so jealous of my husband's eyelashes ... they're so long. It's not fair, why does it always work out that way! Thanks for sharing!

Aunie said...

Oh girl, yesssss. This worked wonders on your lashes! They seriously look like falsies. Woooow!!

Aunie said...

Absolutely! I play the makeup down so much when I'm in uniform that I really love to dress up when I'm not at work!

Aunie said...

Malia, thanks so much for your comment. It seems like so many men were absolutely blessed with the longest lashes possible. It must be so we can admire them all day long! :)

Aunie said...

Thanks, B! I should've jumped on the bandwagon after seeing yours. Can't believe I waited this long. It's definitely going to be a special look for special days, but I just love it!

Aunie said...

Ditto!! It's fun to see people's reactions to you when you're not in uniform :)

Aunie said...

I've heard wonderful things from everyone who sells it. I guess it's a great company to get behind!

Aunie said...

I agree with you 100%, I do admire them, probably more than I should! ;)

Aunie said...

My husband's amazing cousins got into the groove on Younique. I love their products and because I have very sensitive skin, their products have worked wonders. Those lashes look great on you! 3D mascara has been one of my fav products. :)

Aunie said...

Thanks so much. I kind of live for those simple getaways these days. They seem to be happening less and less often. Ah, such is life :)

Aunie said...

Haha, not if they belong to your spouse. No reason to be ashamed, there!

Aunie said...

Oh so glad you like them, too! I've wondered about their moisturizer. It looks really unique and nice!

Aunie said...

Amazing, I'm a mascara junkie too!

Aunie said...

What's your fave?

Aunie said...

I love Rimmel Scandal Eyes!

Aunie said...

Ooh, see now that's a new one for me to try! Thanks!

Aunie said...

I need to learn how to put eyeliner on. I've never been much of a makeup wearer, but I want to be now.

Aunie said...

Eyeliner is fun! It's much easier once you get the hang of it. Honestly, I typically just use eyeshadow and an angled brush. Then it doesn't have to be perfect and you can just dab on a little or a lot, depending on what you're going for :)

Aunie said...

They look so pretty. I think it is nice that you can still use mascara with it too.

Aunie said...

I agree. I would have a hard time giving up my favorite mascara :) I just use the 3D lashes now as a little pop on the ends :)

Aunie said...

I do use their face wash and LOVE it. I hope to get into their other products soon. :)

Aunie said...

Oh nice! I've seen it and just have yet to try it. Thanks!

Aunie said...

Your lashes look AMAZING!! I've been seeing this mascara everywhere and I think I'm ready to try it!

Aunie said...

Your lashes look INCREDIBLE! I'm glad you love it as much as I love do! Younique is awesome :)

Aunie said...

I hope you do!! It makes it hard to go back to regular mascara--it just doesn't work like the 3D fibers do!

Aunie said...

Thanks KC! Yes, it's just awesome. I haven't heard of anyone not liking it yet!

Aunie said...

Hello! I just found your post, and of the MANY images of people who use this product, you are one of very few who are able to get the lashes so defined. I see soo many people with clumpy lashes when they use this. Can you share your secret?!

Aunie said...

Brittany, thanks so much! My lashes tend to kind of do it on their own... I use a wiggling motion when I apply the product. If you check out this makeup tutorial of mine, that shows you how I do it :) Thanks! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wI7pweElXmw
