If you’ve seen drag queens on TV or on stage and wondered where the heck you get eyelashes like that, now you too can get hooked up for just $25 (or $12.50 for one eyelash) at Chimera Lashes.

But Ingrid doesn’t stop at making eyelashes. She also crochets stuff. Like beards.

 If you’re thinking a woman in a fake beard must look like a circus freak, admit it, she’s gorgeous.
