    Freckles and a killer flutter - also known as the perfect coupling

    Are you lucky enough to have a complexion scattered with the gorgeous little spots we call freckles? You may be rolling your eyes as you read this, muttering ‘eh, what's so good about freckles?’ - but (just as people with straight hair want curls and vice versa) those of us with freckle-free skin wish to be blessed with teeny scattered sun kisses all over our noses and cheeks. Yes, it's true.

    You see, they're the epitome of cute and girly youthfulness - and they've never been more bang on-trend than they are right now.

    But I know that those of you who do have freckles may not agree with my overly delightful view of them right now – however, you will. The trick to taking freckles from girly to glam is by teaming them with a set of killer lashes. I'm talking a jet black, ultra-voluminous flutter that knocks the socks off anyone who steps in your path. I'm telling you - they go together like bread and butter.

    Want to know how to get the biggest, ultra-minxy, sky-high flutter going around? You have options, beauties...

    WANT A BARGAIN SOLUTION? Try Chi Chi Super Thick Fake Lash. We think it's perfect because it's non-clumping and leaves your lashes looking fuller, thicker and more dramatic. Fabulous.

    WANT A LUXE SOLUTION? Try Estée Lauder Sumptuous Bold Volume Lifting Mascara in Black. We love it for its BrushComber wand that combines the advantages of both a brush and a comb, thickening and defining lashes to create the ultimate big, bold flutter. 

    WANT SOMETHING MORE PERMANENT? Try Xtreme Semi-Permanent Eyelash Extensions. We recommend them because these synthetic, natural looking strands are  tapered at the tip with a thick base and curled to replicate a natural lash. 

    Do you have freckles? Do you love the way they look?

    Oh yes, lucky me, I have plenty of freckles, and unfortunately do not agree with your thinking that they are cute. I would much rather have a fresh face with no spots, dots or blemishes. But I do try and use them to my advantage, and love the fluttery eye-lash look.

    I hate freckles! Always have. I used to have 'cute ones' when I was little and now I have moles and bigger freckles that I try to hide. Aarrgghhhh!

    Freckles are cute, but mine have unfortunately faded a lot over time & no doubt due to diligent Sunscreen use throughout my childhood and later. I have to get sunburnt for them to poke out a bit more, so that's a bit of a down side to regaining the freckly look!

    Nope i dont have freckles but i reckon they look really cute though :)

    Virginplain 28 Aug 2012 3:36 AM

    When I was young and had lots of them I used to hate them,but I have grown to love them over time.They've faded alot over time,they look best on young ladies,not so good on midle aged ladies.Good to see they are popular again now.

    I've learned to embrace my freckles, after all they are just another part of the puzzle that makes me, well, me! After using Estee Lauder's Idealist serum they have faded somewhat so are less noticable, but I don't think I'd want them gone altogether anymore.

    Few freckles left now, most have disappeared.

    Evanescencessy 28 Aug 2012 3:15 AM

    I don't have freckles but I do have a lot of moles/beauty spots which I hate!

    Hayley_22 28 Aug 2012 1:52 AM

    I use to have ones like the picture above but after looking after my skin better they have faded quite a bit. Thank god!

    My son has the cutest freckles on his cute button nose. I love them! I have some scattered around, and they have never bothered me. Foundation covered most of them, and the ones that stand out...well, they're beauty spots ;D

    (* that should be rarely wears make-up not really wears make-up).

    I had some freckles when I was really young but not many now. It's amazing how stunning someone with freckles looks when they cover them up with foundation. It is a whole new look. One minute they have freckles then suddenly wow... they don't. It is the same when someone really wears make-up and you see them all dressed up with make-up... another wow moment. It is amazing how different and stunning they look.

    I have a few little freckles on the top of my cheekbones but they aren't very noticeable at all, and once i put make up on they become invisible. I think freckles really suit some people though.

    I don't have freckles but I think they can look good on some people

    I have a few freckles that are light on my high cheekbones (they've faded heaps since I was a kid), and they look really cute. I love illuminating them and having them stand out :)

    I have a few freckles on my nose, but they always get covered up with foundation. They do look cute on other ladies though
