# Colorful LED Eyelashes Light Up Eyelashes F.lashes Will Make Your Eyes Light Up -- Literally By Alyson Wyers | Published 2017-05-28 | Fashion Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/light-up-eyelashes References: [mashable](http://mashable.com/2017/05/27/led-eyelashes/) & [flashes.se](http://flashes.se/) These light up eyelashes are an Arduino hack for the beauty community. Although they might not necessarily be a very wearable look (unless you are into bold lashes on another level), the interactive LED eyelashes follow other out-there beauty looks like glitter brows. Co-created by Arduino designer Tien Pham, f.lashes will be the subject of a [Kickstarter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/illuminated-cycling-helmet) crowdfunding campaign to be launched in mid-July 2017. F.lashes come in seven different colors (pink, white, red, yellow, green, blue and light blue) and can be applied with [normal eyelash glue](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/impress-falsies). The light up eyelashes are powered by a super small (3.3 volts) watch battery, which allows them to glow up for up to four hours. They are also designed not to emit heat on a noticeable level and hold up well to sweat. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 4.4/10 - Popularity: 59% | Activity: 66% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 30% men, 70% women - Primary generations: Gen Z, Millennial - Top markets: Asia ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/fashion) > [Cosmetics](https://www.trendhunter.com/cosmetics) ## Key Themes ### What's Driving This Trend - **LED Makeup:** Advancement in technology has made it possible for makeup to incorporate LED lighting to enhance and modify any look. - **Interactive Beauty:** The integration of technology and beauty is creating an interactive experience for consumers who are looking for unique and innovative ways to express themselves. - **Wearable Technology:** The trend of wearable technology is extending beyond fitness trackers and watches and introducing new products like LED eyelashes that can be worn as a fashion accessory. ### Who This Affects Most - **Beauty:** The beauty industry can leverage LED makeup to create innovative and futuristic products that cater to the growing demand for customization and personalization of beauty products. - **Fashion:** LED makeup can be applied to clothing and accessories to create a unique and visually stunning look that can elevate any outfit to new heights. - **Technology:** The intersection of technology and beauty can create new opportunities for tech companies to develop wearable technology that can enhance and modify a user's appearance in innovative ways. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Flexible LED Masks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/skin-tech.md) - [Color-Shifting Smart Press-Ons](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ipolish.md) - [Wearable Light-Emitting Diodes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/led-esthetics.md) - [AI-Powered Lash Services](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/luum-precision-lash.md) - [Plant-Powered Neon Mascaras](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/neon-mascara.md) - [Balayage-Inspired False Lashes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/balayage-wispies.md) - [Ultra-Flexible False Eyelashes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/v-by-velour.md) - [Clarifying LED Patches](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/led-acne-patch.md) - [Pre-Glued Mess-Free Lashes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/press-on-lashes.md)
