Shisem XN Lashes

I'm not sure what took me so long to write this post. I've mentioned Shisem lashes about a million times but never once wrote about my favorite from the brand. Shisem makes way too many styles for me to keep track, I don't think I've seen the entire collection at any single store (that's probably a blessing in disguise for my wallet). I have tried a number of their lashes and out of all the ones I've tried the XN variety is my favorite.


Shisem makes great lashes but the quality isn't consistent across all the styles. Each set of lashes comes with two tubes of lash glue, handy if you don't have any. One tube of glue is a white to clear glue that doesn't dry entirely clear. The other tube is a clear glue that is superglue-like making it super hard to remove. If you take good care of these lashes you can wear it up to 5-6 times no problem.


A shot up close of the criss crossy goodness!


The lashes appear very natural with just enough to add that spark and open up your eyes. The band isn't thick and they're comfortable to have on.


I didn't curl or put mascara on my real lashes in order to show what these lashes l. It's not drastic, looks like additional lashes to what you already have.


Lashes are sold at various asian beauty shops for $3-$5.

I've been bitten by the flu bug and haven't been doing much aside from chugging Nyquil like a champ. I hope you're all doing well!

XOXO, M

  2. I wish I was more consistent to wear flash eyelashes. I only wear flash eyelashes in rare and special occasions. Did you take your flu shot yet? Hope you get better.

  10. Hi Mona - can you distinguish between the two little tubes of glue? I just found them hidden in my packaging and don't want to accidentally use the one that you say is like superglue!
