Re: QVC....Please Use Models with Normal Eyelashes for Mascara Demo's

I hate when they obviously use powder on the lashes to try to hide the color and length. Then ""Magically"" what ever the Mascara is makes them appear longer. A tremendous amount of vendors do this and QVC allows it. They cheat.

I agree...I want to see what normal lashes look like after applying the mascara's. The host just said she is wearing the It mascara and of course her lashes look fine...but normal.

btw: I do like the It mascara for the main fact it doesn't clump.

Yes, the Godzilla look is ugly. I don't know what those young women are thinking but it is not attractive to have the unnatural, long lashes and it is beyond me what the vendors are thinking selecting those women for their models. It's a freak show.

I don't think any of us were referring to Sheila or Brenda. I agree with you - these ladies seem to have "normal" lashes. However, the 2 other models (not sure of their names) are clearly using Latisse-like products - which make the mascara demos look unbecoming. They're beautiful girls, but I don't think using them for mascara demos does the vendor any favors.

my point is that it's not just us old ladies purchasing products. Don't forget there are young women watching this as well! And not everyone has outrageous lashes like the blonde actually I don't think that's Rachel Rachel is the one with the astounding lips .

I like it too and that 3 piece deal is really good! My lashes are blonde so you can barely see them. Hello Lashes makes them look so much fuller and of course darker and more noticeable

Lol, what does age have to do with anything? I'm 32 - not that old, I hope. Smiley Happy

I guess I didn't realize anyone was commenting on this in regards to age - but maybe I missed this side of the "debate". (Wouldn't be the first time - lol!)

I agree that Rachel is stunning, one of my favorites!!!

maybe I am missing the point too but I'm just not put off by the models they are different ages different attributes, I just don't find them offensive or do I feel like I'm being misled in any way. yes they are all attractive but that's kind of the point of models isn't it?

Re: QVC....Please Use Models with Normal Eyelashes for Mascara Demo's

I just started using rapid lash and am hoping to get me some nice long lashes, just so I don't have to wear mascara. Mine are dark and curl, but short and rather thin.

Re: QVC....Please Use Models with Normal Eyelashes for Mascara Demo's

Andreatoo ~ wow, you know the names of the models???!!! I don't watch QVC often enough to even know the names of all the hosts!

But I did watch the IT presentation last night and thought the model had eyelashes that were just bizarre. Freaky scary. That spider look will never convince me buy a mascara - just the opposite. I changed the channel.
