Go Faux

I KNOW THAT LIPSTICK sales skyrocket during economic recessions and depressions, but I had no idea that eyelashes could fall into the same sale boosting category. The Cut reported that "False eyelashes don't seem to have been affected by the recession: Sales last year increased by 6.2 percent to $44 million." Whooo! Lipstick can tend to be cheaper, but I think the similarity in the "instant makeover" that lipstick gives you can exist in faux lashes as well, and that has been adding to its recession success.
