11 Facts That Prove Beauty Procedures Aren’t a Modern Invention
False lashes came into fashion at the beginning of the last century.
In the early twentieth century, they came up with another way to enhance one’s appearance: with the help of eyelashes. In 1911, inventor Anna Taylor patented false eyelashes. Her invention included strip eyelashes that were supposed to be made of human hair.
