Mascara looks more natural but it's not good for your eyelashes if you use it everyday - your eyelashes will begin to thin. False eyelashes look great but not natural. Go for false eyelashes if you want to make your eyelashes look fuller and more intense. They're easier to take off as well.

Both can damage your lashes but false eyelashes do the least damage out of the two. It all depends on how you apply it. Have you considered eyelash extensions? It looks great, plus you won't have to wear mascara or take it off.

mascara! it doesn't wreck your lashes or eyelids like falsies do, and you can get the same effect by putting a layer of talc between each coat of mascara! Sounds freaky but it works - it makes the lashes look fuller, thicker and a whole lot more natural that falsies!!

Mascar is also easier to deal with, i once glued my eyelids together putting too much top up glue on the falsies in a nightclub - not a pretty sight! At least you can top up mascar easily :)

I use mascara but I also have pretty decent lashes.

I have a good friend who uses fake lashes and loves them. Her eye always look amazing too. She said the #1 tip she got was to put the glue on, wait about 10 seconds, and then try and apply them or it's just all bad, gluey, and sideways.

I don't see why you can't do both though. Just get natural looking lashes.

Unless they are professionally done, false eyelashes usually look tacky and cheap.

Falsies are definitely worse for you because of the adhesive. Mascara is just paint on hair.

I would imagine that mascara would be easier to deal with, because it us just a couple swipes with a brush-thing versus trying to fit something to your eyelid 'just right'. Also, mascara won't ever fall off and end up looking horrible by hanging askew, or end up on your cheek.

Depends, if you have nice eyelashes mascara

If you don't then false lashes!!

i like to put fake eyelashes then mascara over them

Falsies are deadly for your lashes, and also they look cheap and tacky if you apply them slightly wrong. Mascara all the way!

Fake eyelashes! They are very damaging though.

Mascara...

i prefer mascara. it looks more natural and it's better for everyday looks. however, if you need something dramatic, go for false lashes
