Shu Uemura Lashes

Where there was once eyeliner, eyeshadow and mascara, there is now room only for Shu Uemura's false eyelashes. The Japanese cosmetic line breaks the lash barrier (and may have created the need for such a term) with its Fantasy, Premium and Accent lines, while keeping things somewhat sedate with the Natural collection. Famed for being worn on the runway at fashion shows around the globe, these falsies are only a hop, skip and dab of lash glue away at Blossom Cosmetic Boutique in Newtown.

Styles that will definitely get you a second look include the Velvet Feather, a light and fluffy design that mixes both brown and black pigments. Or there's the butterfly-inspired Brown Feather lash, which drips drama from its spotted pattern and flared ends. We're, of course, batty for the entire collection.
