Yes, I have freckles or age spots or sun spots on my eyelids. It always amazes the dermatologist that I do-but then again, when you spend the vast majority of waking years in the sunbelt-it's what happens! I post this pic to compare to the first one a full week ago to demonstrate the difference in the lashes. Daily I apply the Envyderm serum along my upper lashes and I take a moment to massage into the lashline with my ring finger. So, what do you think? Do you see a difference? I do! Plus when I put my mascara on there is definately a longer length and slightly thicker effect to my eyelashes. It's worth a try for you! Find more information at http://www.envyderm.com

But these don't!
You can see there are 3 different types in the photo and all of these are available at www.HSN.com
Here's what I'm trying on in the video: Bango Tango for instant bangs, Go!Go! for volume and Flirtini for a thick ponytail. All of these can be heat styled and worn curly or straight. These are the dark chocolate brown hair extensions.
Now: enjoy this short video from me demonstrating how to wear these for your prom, wedding, event, or professional photo for your business even!

Then I have also included a fun video of DWTS Kym Johnson and Hines Ward dancing the Samba so you can see these extensions in full swinging action! Enjoy!
