And of course I'll be making them for Bev and Ana, too.

I left them to dry for a little longer and then cut the lashes into the black strip.
I then fitted them to Amber and allowed the adhesive to fully set.
Back view.
The bonus with this is that they have set slightly shaped and fitted for her face, although they are still flexible.

Amber likes them.

Re: Here's my cheap and easy closed eyelids
I love all the little alterations and 'improvements' to the original Jayna experiment!
Great idea using a thin line of felt for the eyelashes (as NMM also experimented with).
I would have thought that would have been too bold and drag-queen/cartoony, but nope it looks great!
For pic-by-pic comparison with the falsie eyelashes from your local drugstore:

Yay! These are all great! Hope it helps putting the examples all together for comparison purposes.
Soz if I missed anyone out.
