Girls Aloud 'boost fake eyelash sales'

If Girls Aloud start a fashion trend, who are we to argue with it? So, when the fabulous fivesome launched their range of false eyelashes with Eyelure this year, it was always set to be a big hit.

With everyone from Lady Gaga to supermodel Agyness Deyn sporting fluttery lashes, it was not going to be long before girls everywhere wanted to get the wide-eyed look themselves.

Every year, girls in the UK shell out £10 million on giving their lashes a makeover, according to Superdrug.

Jenni Middleton, editor of Professional Beauty magazine, said strip lashes are an easy way to add extra glamour or just enhance the lashes you already have.
