Cascading eyelashes

Abstract

The present invention relates to eyelash structures, kits comprising said eyelash structures and methods for preparing the same. The eyelash structures of the invention comprise at least two eyelash units, which optionally differ in terms of design, material, length and curvature, are connected in a cascading fashion. The invention further provides a kit comprising said eyelash structures, and optionally a glue. In addition, the invention relates to a method of manufacturing the eyelash structures of the invention.

1 . An eyelash structure comprising at least two eyelash units each comprising an elongated mounting portion and lash filaments, wherein said eyelash structure is characterized in that said mounting portions of said at least two eyelash units are connected in a cascading fashion. 
     
     
         2 . The eyelash structure of  claim 1 , comprising 2, 3, 4, or 5 eyelash units. 
     
     
         3 . The eyelash structure of  claim 1 , wherein the eyelash units are connected permanently. 
     
     
         4 . The eyelash structure of  claim 1 , wherein the eye lash units are (exclusively) connected via the mounting portions. 
     
     
         5 . The eyelash structure of  claim 3 , wherein the connection is mediated by glue or heat. 
     
     
         6 . The eyelash structure of  claim 1 , wherein said at least two eyelash units are different. 
     
     
         7 . The eyelash structure of  claim 6 , wherein the eyelash units differ from each other in terms of design, color, and/or length. 
     
     
         8 . The eyelash structure of  claim 1 , wherein said lash filaments of said at least two eyelash units are different. 
     
     
         9 . The eyelash structure of  claim 8 , wherein said lash filaments differ from each other in terms of design, color, length, and/or thickness. 
     
     
         10 . The eyelash structure of  claim 1 , wherein lash filaments are natural or synthetic. 
     
     
         11 . The eyelash structure of  claim 1 , wherein the elongated mounting portion of said at least two eyelash units is transparent or colored. 
     
     
         12 . The eyelash structure of  claim 1 , wherein the eyelash units are in the form of a full strip, corner lash, or a plurality of subassemblies. 
     
     
         13 . A kit comprising an eyelash structure as defined in  claim 1 , optionally comprising a glue. 
     
     
         14 . A package comprising an eyelash structure as defined in  claim 1 , optionally comprising or having imprinted instructions for use. 
     
     
         15 . A method for the production of an eyelash structure as defined in  claim 1 , comprising selecting at least two eyelash units from a pre-determined plurality of given eyelash units and connecting them in a cascading fashion.
