Do you want a pair of lashes that pump up your volume and bring eye-popping drama?
We snagged five pairs of lashes that have devoted fan-followings online and tried them out just for you.

Once we tested them all out, a clear winner emerged.
Read on to find out what pair won The List Beauty Awards: fake eyelashes edition.
As the name suggests, these are wispy.

The individual lashes come in a variety of sizes and overlap with each other to create a feathered effect.
The best part for us was that the thin, flexible band is clear.
The faux mink lashes come in four different styles that bring varying amounts of drama.

Just in terms of packaging alone, these are on a tier above most.
The individual lashes overlap and create a wispy look on the eye while still adding volume.
We only had to cut off a small portion before tool.

Once prepped, they went on easily with an adhesive eyeliner and stayed on comfortably for hours.
It was like they weren’t even on our eyes!
We’ve always been worried about cutting off too much and ruining an expensive investment.

If you buy from Velour Lashes Effortless line, you don’t need to worry about any of that.
They cost $26 and are packed in an expensive-feeling plastic container for easy storage.
The Final Touch lashes weren’t uncomfortable on the eye.

They wore easily and weren’t overly distracting.
The style was just a touch on the dramatic side for everyday wearing.
These pack serious volume, but they’re perfect to reach for to pump up a look.
The best part is that they’re good for upwards of 20 wears, according to the brand.
We picked up a pair from their3D Faux Minkline in the style NYC.
The pair has a flexible, black band.
The individual lashes feel silky, are uniformly placed for a thick look, and appear real.
Once prepped, we applied them using an adhesive eyeliner.
The lashes felt light and stayed in place for hours.
Although dramatic and flirty, they were very comfortable.
They’re cruelty-free, vegan, and cost $11.99.
However, the lashes themselves are secure and protected inside the container, which is what really matters.
Speaking of the lashes,Eyluredescribes them as a dupe for Lilly Lashes’s popular Miami style.
Make no mistake this is a dramatic lash.
In terms of texture, they look more plastic than others but still feel soft and wispy.
The brand provides its own lash glue for adhesion, which dries down clear.
We had to trim a good deal of the lashes off to get them to fit our eyes.
Once there, they felt lightweight and stayed on for hours.
That’s affordable beauty at a very worthwhile price tag.
We love to see it!
