It's never too early for me to start planning for my favorite holiday, Christmas. In fact, I keep a rolling gift list for family and friends all year long. I've had presents hidden around my house since July. You get the picture. In the same way, I don't think it's too early to start prepping makeup looks for those holiday parties (yay!). In an already busy season, it can seem like a chore to get ready for yet another get-together; but fear not! The quickest and easiest way to punch up your look is with a set of false eyelashes.  Best of all?  These can be purchased at your local drugstore or Amazon.com.

Here are my top three picks:

The Strip

When you want your eyes to pop while still looking natural, the Ardell 110 strip lashes are my go-to.  I wore them on my wedding day, and I still keep them in stock for any occasion.

Fancy

When I want a little something extra, I love the Demi Wispies, also by Ardell.  These offer a full fringe that doesn't veer into scary land, and I really enjoy how large my eyes look when wearing them.

Individuals

The Kiss iEnvy Trio Lashes are uh-ma-zing because they let you completely customize your look, they're easy to layer on a strip of lashes for more drama, and they're much easier to apply than the single individuals.
