A Women Just Tried to Glue A Dead Fly Onto Her Lashes Instead of Falsies

Just when you thought you’d seen it all, someone just has to go and shake things up a bit, don’t they? Today I bring you an update from the beauty world. Last Saturday, a woman in the U.K. almost glued a deceased house fly onto her lashes because she thought they were her falsies. Yes. To her credit, if I was in a rush and didn’t have my contacts in, I just might reach for that little bugger too. The woman’s daughter, Molly Robins, shared her mum’s text along with her reaction on Twitter. 

Obviously, everyone wanted to get in on this mortifying incident. No word though as to whether the mother has sworn off falsies forever. 

Nobody tell Jeffree Star!
