Four women tried magnetic false eyelashes for the first time, here's what happened...

Chances are, at some point in your life you've seen or tried false eyelashes. For me, false eyelashes played a big part of my teenage years. Every Saturday night my friends and I would head down to the local Walkabout (oh the shame), wearing at least two pairs of strip lashes on each eye - plus, heels so ridiculously high they were basically stilts. Ah the joys of youth.
False eyelashes have come a long old way since then, these days they're a lot more high tech. So much so, you can now buy lashes with teeny tiny magnets built into the strips, negating any need to faff around with glue... Snazzy, huh?
Magnetic eyelashes are a little different to traditional strip lashes though, in a box you get two strips for each eye (my inner teenager is so excited). You place the first strip on top of the upper lashline, and the second one below the upper lashline - sandwiching your own lashes in between the falsies. The magnets then stick together, clamping your own lashes in between and securing the strips in place.

As with all crazy product claims, we put the magnetic lashes to the test in our Beauty Lab YouTube series. Which, if you're new to these parts, is where we review all sorts of wonderful (and not-so wonderful) beauty products on camera.

Yep, we got four Cosmopolitan Editors to try out Ardell's magnetic false lashes in Double Demi Wispies and the Accent Lash style. The results? Let's just say they were iiiinteresting.
So if you're into all things beauty, go subscribe to our YouTube channel now, because whatever product you're debating buying this month, chances are we'll be testing it out on camera.

"Once you get the hang of it they are easier to apply than false lashes, but it does have a learning curve," she says. "You have to make sure you get them right on the lashline. Take your time, sit at a mirror and practice."  Luxe Magnetic Opulent Accent Lashes   The key to getting these lashes on are putting a coat of mascara on before to give the magnetic ones something to grip on to.

The 6 Best Magnetic Lashes of 2019 If you love false lashes but hate wrangling with lash glue, magnetic lashes are the way to go. As the name suggests, magnetic lashes skip the adhesive entirely by using tiny magnets to attach to the lashline. Nailing the application takes some practice but the benefits are worth it—less mess and long-lasting hold, just to name a few.

Best Overall: Ardell Magnetic Lash Accent #001 Buy on Amazon Buy on Ulta These tiny clusters serve as accents for your natural lashes rather than a full strip, but they make a big impact nonetheless.
