Paperself Lashes

Over the past three or four seasons, we've seen the inevitable backlash to the increasingly thickened false lash look. Layering two or three 'natural' sets had an edge of TOWIE about it, and backstage the no-mascara look set the high fashion crowd at total odds with TV's ideals of caterpillar falsies. Then came Paperself. Undeniably enchanting, and surprisingly lightweight, these lashes are about the distinctive, the fantastical and above all else, the theatre of a flutter. Inspired by the Chinese art of paper cutting, these lashes offer a little pastoral scene for your lids, or a symbolic talisman for success and good fortune. They're utterly beautiful.
