Maxis Lashes / 3D Lashes (MMSIMS V3) Maxis Brows / Realistic Brows (Lucilla Eyebrows N139) Rosie's Brows Download: The only 3D lashes I ever used were the ones from MMSIMS and Kijiko, both listed below, and I think it's everything you need lashwise.

Pick a photo from Google, take a picture of yourself or an image from somewhere else, but whatever you do, do start with a reference. So take your cup of tea/coffee, sit tight, and let's play! I'm in no way the best at it, but I sure can help a little.
