Whether you’re a dedicated false lash-wearer who’s been known to always keep a spare tube of lash glue in your purse “just in case” or a newbie who’s terrified at the idea of applying foreign objects to your lids (we’ve all been there), we’ve got something for all levels of false lash knowledge.

We’ve collated some of our favourite lash accessories of all time, all of which are crafted to help create a lash look for every occasion and then some for when your best tubing mascara just ain’t gonna cut it.

So regardless of how you like to wear yours, here are our top 10 must-have lash accessories.
