Some partnerships are born from strategy, and others from sheer coincidence. For one beauty devotee, teaming up with Tatti Lashes fell into the latter category. She had been a loyal customer since 2018, quietly stocking up on their fluttery designs. Then came the call: Tatti wanted to collaborate.

“It felt serendipitous,” she recalls. “I’ve always tried to align myself with products I genuinely love. And while I can admit that in my early days I said yes to every opportunity—I was thrilled if someone offered me even five dollars—the bigger my platform grew, the more responsibility I felt. These days, authenticity matters most.”

That commitment set the tone for a collaboration grounded in real-life beauty needs: lightweight lashes that flatter without overwhelming.

Lashes That Don’t Weigh You Down

As someone with sensitive eyes, false lashes were often a gamble. “I’ve worn pairs that left me looking half-asleep on the red carpet,” she admits. Tatti’s lashes, however, were different: featherlight, comfortable, and versatile.

Together, they designed two styles: a dramatic cat-eye strip lash, perfect for pairing with winged liner on glamorous nights, and a day-to-night lash duo made of soft clusters. The latter quickly became her favorite. “Clusters give me more control. You can wear them for up to seven days with our long-lasting adhesive, so you get the look of extensions without the upkeep,” she says.

The tools make all the difference, too. With long nails and wide fingertips, precision can be tricky. A curved applicator solved that problem, making the placement almost foolproof.

Not everyone can nail a strip lash on the first try—and she’s the first to admit it. “For years, I just couldn’t get them right. Even with makeup artists showing me, it didn’t click. But once I tried clusters, it was like training wheels. Once you master those, you feel brave enough to try strips.”

Her pro tip: always start with mascara. By coating natural lashes first, false lashes blend more seamlessly. She swears by Lancôme’s Hypnôse mascara for that perfect base.

Playing With Color

When it comes to eyeshadow, she sticks to shades that make her eyes pop: burgundy, terracotta, brick. Even a smoky brown look gets upgraded with a swipe of burgundy along the waterline. Purple, too, makes green eyes gleam—when used with restraint. “There’s a way to wear purple that’s chic, not costume-y,” she says, citing Kylie’s shimmery purple gel pencil as a go-to.

Eyeliner is another playground. While she occasionally uses a pen, she favors the precision of a gel pot like Inglot’s AMC liner—less smudging, more control. If touch-ups are needed, a quick pass with a pen like Tatti’s Double Trouble does the trick.

Brows stay low-maintenance: a pencil to cover sparse spots, finished with a clear gel for hold. “I don’t love adding color—it’s more about keeping them brushed and polished.” Kylie’s Kybrow gel makes the cut.

Nighttime Rituals

As much as she loves getting glam, she’s equally serious about winding down. Removing lashes isn’t just about practicality; it’s a ritual. Tatti’s rose oil–infused lash remover gently dissolves adhesive while doubling as skincare.

“I’ll use it to take everything off, then reapply it just around my eyes. I think it hydrates lashes, helps with wrinkles, and keeps the skin soft.” Dedicated eye cream doesn’t make her lineup—instead, she relies on tried-and-true staples like Vaseline or Aquaphor, smoothing them over her eyelids nightly.

More Than Makeup

Beneath the mascaras, pencils, and lash clusters lies a bigger story: one about growth and responsibility. What began as excitement over any brand deal has evolved into discernment. Now, authenticity isn’t just a buzzword—it’s the foundation of her beauty philosophy.

It’s about choosing lashes that feel weightless instead of cumbersome. About leaning on clusters when strips feel intimidating. About reaching for shades that enhance rather than overpower. And perhaps most importantly, about remembering that what comes off at the end of the night is just as important as what goes on.

Because beauty, at its best, isn’t just about transformation—it’s about intention.
