I've seen the rapid lash on the web site and wondered if anyone could ex lain how this works, it's application and what the end result looks like. From the pics shown it looks like a single lash but the description talks about how it comprises of two single lashes stuck together. Unlike the Y lash it does not splay out so I can't see the immediate advantage. Can anyone help with this.

The Rapids are two lashes joined at the base and run parallel with eachother. Once applied, the lashes open up slightly at the end. The Ylashes fork out much much more. Also the Rapids are 2 x 0.15 thick. Which means that the lash is actually 0.30mm thick. The thickest lashes you can get!
I use the Rapids to set my frame work and then fill in the gaps with the 0.20 thicklashes. Creates a very thick and glam set.

Thanks they sound good. Do they always fan out at the top as they seem so close together in the pic. Do you find that they last well (provided of course that you don't put them on fine fragile lashes).

The trick to applying the Rapids, is to dip them 1/2 way into the glue. If you dip them into the glue too much they stay closed. You can open them a bit before you apply them by running your tweezers across them left to right. I don't use them on those blonde fluffy lashes. Only medium to thick lashes. Although they are quite thick, they are not as heavy as the .25 thick lashes.

The Rapids last as long as any other specialty lashes. In saying that, sometimes you might need to pick up a bit more glue to cover/coat both extension and natural lash together.
