A few years ago, my friend Sarah got lashes applied the morning of her wedding. She chose the most dramatic pair in the salon — because that's what everyone told her brides do. Ten hours later, she was standing in the corner of the reception, holding her eyelid, asking me if the lash was still on. It was. But it had been poking her for the last three hours. She didn't remember a single toast because she was too busy thinking about her eye.
