It is said that the ‘eyes of a person serve as a window to his/her soul’. While this statement might or might not be regarded as true by all the people, it is surely a fact that whenever we look at a person, it is his/her eyes that get our attention at the very first instance. Probably, this is the reason why females use so many makeup items to accentuate their eyes - eyeliner, kajal, mascara, eye-shadow, highlighters, and so on. One amongst the most popular eye accessories comprises of fake lashes, which enhance the overall appearance of the face as well.
