Style Saturday - Fabulous Falsies

I recently discovered that Pop Star Katy Perry had a new line of  false eyelashes that are exclusively carried by Ulta.  Katy Perry is definitely a fashionista in her own right and definitely rocks a unique style as only she can, from cotton candy pink or cobalt blue hair to sequin and major sparkles.

False eyelashes can take a bridal makeup from simple to fab in just a few seconds.  Falsies create a wide-eyed flirty look that will get any grooms attention during your first look, not to mention they look amazing in pictures!

Katy Perry teamed up with Lash Specialists Eylure and created 4 distinctive lash styles that allow brides to select just how dramatic they want to go with their falsies for their bridal style.

Styles include:

Sweetie Pie {Pink}-  A danty, natural hair lash that will discreetly add length and volume to your own lashes. A stunning and wearable new lash collection from Katy Perry and Eylure. All Katy Perry lashes by Eylure are handmade, 100% natural and each style is reusable.

Oh Honey! {Yellow} - A flattering full lash, textured for a natural finish but with enough volume to take your lashes from fine to fab! A stunning and wearable new lash collection from Katy Perry and Eylure. All Katy Perry lashes by Eylure are handmade, 100% natural and each style is reusable.

Cool Kitty {Blue} - A stunning and wearable new lash collection from Katy Perry and Eylure. The style will make your eyes look amazing. Gorgeous framing with manicured tips, these lashes can be worn in the day to be daring or at night as the perfect finishing touch. All Katy Perry lashes by Eylure are handmade, 100% natural and each style is reusable.

Oh My {Purple} - Big and beautiful with a layered effect. All the texture you could want in a lash yet so wearable and really flattering. Be daring, go double effect! A stunning and wearable new lash collection from Katy Perry and Eylure. All Katy Perry lashes by Eylure are handmade, 100% natural and each style is reusable.

Are you wearing falsies to enhance your bridal look?  Are you keeping it subtle or going glamorous + dramatic?
