So PD’s been nagging me to get some eyelash extensions for ages now. She comes back from her shopping trips to Dubai with fancy ideas in her head, which she then forces on us. While awkward at first, this almost always works out in our best interests (cases in point being laser hair removal, beeswax extensions for hair, bronzers of all kinds and Shiseido eye pens – ‘always go Jap for eye products’ -PD). I had these done at Mooi - it costs R690 for the full set, and then you go back for fillers every 6 weeks or so for R390 a session. Make sure you have time – it takes 2 hours to have a full set put in, but it’s very relaxing and not at all sore.

You can choose from 3 kinds  of lash - acrylic, silk or mink. I went for acrylic as mink and silk are VERY soft – wait til you’re an extension pro before you go there. These acrylics are very easy wearing though – you just live your life as normal (showering, swimming, etc) and try not to rub your eyes. So far I’m loving not having to wear any eye makeup. Think I could get used to that. Plus they feel kinda nice. Like if you blink enough, you might just take off. And fly away. Far, far away.
