True Beauty Lashes (inspiretruebeauty.com) is a purpose-driven beauty brand headquartered in New York, founded by Lisa Stroud — formerly Lisa Westhafer — a beauty industry veteran with over 20 years of experience in brand building, customer experience, and purpose-driven marketing. Before founding True Beauty Lashes, Lisa served as the Customer Experience and CRM Center of Excellence Lead for Unilever personal care products, where she led launches for iconic beauty and personal care brands across major US retail chains and developed expertise in inclusive brand strategy, shopper marketing, and behavioral science. Her background in healthcare advertising agencies also gave her deep knowledge of mental health activation — an influence that runs through every aspect of True Beauty Lashes' mission and charitable giving.

Why True Beauty Lashes Exists — Two Problems the Industry Wasn't Solving

Lisa founded True Beauty Lashes to address two distinct and persistent failures she observed in the false lash industry. The first was fit. Despite being marketed as a universal beauty accessory, false lashes have historically been designed with a narrow range of eye shapes in mind. An estimated 242 million women globally say they do not currently wear false lashes — but they would, if they could find ones that actually fit their eyes. Women with hooded eyes, monolids, deep-set eyes, smaller eye shapes, or less common facial proportions have routinely been underserved by a category that treats every face as the same. True Beauty Lashes was built from the start to design lash styles that complement a genuinely diverse range of eye shapes, so that the experience of finding the right lash feels personalized rather than like a game of trial and error with products designed for someone else.

The second problem was ethics. The false lash industry has a long and poorly acknowledged history of using real mink fur — sourced from animals kept in inhumane farming conditions — while simultaneously marketing these products as "cruelty-free." Lisa decided from day one that True Beauty Lashes would never use animal-derived materials of any kind, would make that commitment verifiable through third-party certification, and would find a material that delivered the sensory experience buyers actually want from mink without any of the cruelty. The result is FAUXREAL™.

FAUXREAL™ Technology — The Science Behind the Softness

FAUXREAL™ is True Beauty Lashes' proprietary faux-mink lash technology — a 100% vegan material developed in partnership with the brand's suppliers to replicate the softness, drape, and natural appearance of real mink fur without using any animal products. The name is both a description and a promise: it is genuinely FAUX (entirely synthetic and animal-free) and genuinely REAL (delivering the tactile experience and visual result that made mink lashes the premium standard in the category). For buyers who have tried mink lashes and love the way they feel and look, FAUXREAL™ delivers a comparable experience. For buyers who have avoided mink lashes because of animal welfare concerns, FAUXREAL™ removes the compromise entirely.

Every True Beauty Lashes product made with FAUXREAL™ technology is verified through two independent cruelty-free certification programs: PETA's Beauty Without Bunnies program, which verifies that no animal testing occurs at any stage of production, and the Leaping Bunny Certification, the gold standard for cruelty-free personal care product certification in North America. These dual certifications mean buyers do not need to take the brand's word for its ethical commitments — they can verify them independently.

Product Range — Lash Styles, Magnetic Lashes, and Adhesives

True Beauty Lashes produces two primary lash formats alongside its adhesive line:

Standard Strip Lashes — the core of the True Beauty Lashes catalog, strip lashes made with FAUXREAL™ technology are available in a range of styles organized around real-life use cases and eye shapes. The collection spans natural, lightweight styles suited for the office and daytime wear through to high-impact, full-glam styles for evening events and special occasions. Each lash style in the catalog is named after a woman who inspired the look — a design detail that reflects the brand's ethos of celebrating women for who they are, not just what they look like.

Magnetic Lashes — True Beauty Lashes also produces a magnetic lash format, which applies without traditional adhesive glue using a magnetic liner system. Magnetic lashes are designed for users who want a faster, cleaner application experience or who have sensitivity to conventional lash adhesives.

Lash Adhesives — the brand's eyelash glue is formulated to be compatible with sensitive eyes and is free of fragrance, gluten, coconut, nickel, preservatives, lanolin, and talc — making it one of the more inclusive adhesive formulations in the category. Clean adhesive formulation is a meaningful differentiator in a product category where glue reactions are a common reason buyers abandon false lashes entirely.

LashLovr™ — AI-Powered Personalized Lash Matching

In February 2026, True Beauty Lashes launched LashLovr™ in partnership with Perfect Corp. (NYSE: PERF), the global leader in AI and AR beauty technology whose YouCam apps have been downloaded over 1.1 billion times worldwide. LashLovr™ is a proprietary lash matching experience that uses Perfect Corp.'s Virtual Try-On and Face Analyzer APIs to analyze a buyer's eye shape, facial proportions, and style preferences and recommend the specific lash styles from the True Beauty Lashes catalog that are most likely to fit and flatter that individual face — with a real-time virtual try-on that lets the buyer preview the recommended lashes on their own face before purchasing.

LashLovr™ was built to solve the single largest barrier to false lash adoption: the difficulty of knowing which lash style will actually work for your specific eye shape without buying multiple products and returning most of them. For buyers who have had the experience of receiving a beautiful-looking lash that looked nothing like the model's photo on their face, LashLovr™ provides a solution that is grounded in data about their actual features rather than guesswork about the model's features. The experience is available directly on the True Beauty Lashes website at inspiretruebeauty.com.

Beauty Positivity and Mental Health Giving

True Beauty Lashes operates under an explicit "Beauty Positivity" ethos — a brand philosophy that celebrates beauty across all ages, body types, and self-expressions, and holds that a woman's inner beauty is more fundamental than any cosmetic product. This philosophy is not merely marketing language: the brand has joined Pledge 1% and donates a portion of every sale to mental health initiatives in the United States, previously directed through the Mental Health Coalition, founded in 2020 by designer Kenneth Cole to unite mental health organizations across the US in reducing stigma and expanding access to support.

For buyers for whom brand values are part of the purchasing decision, True Beauty Lashes' combination of ethical sourcing (FAUXREAL™, PETA approval, Leaping Bunny certification), inclusive design (LashLovr™, eye-shape-focused lash styles), and social giving (mental health donation from every purchase) represents a distinctive position in the beauty category.

True Beauty Points Rewards Program

True Beauty Lashes operates a loyalty rewards program called True Beauty Points. Customers earn 200 points just for creating an account, additional points for sharing a birthday, placing orders, and other engagement actions. Points are redeemable for high-value discounts and exclusive products. The rewards program also provides early access to restocked items, order tracking, wishlist management, and a saved payment and delivery address book for faster checkout.

Payments and Financing

True Beauty Lashes accepts major credit cards, PayPal, and Apple Pay. The platform also supports Afterpay and PayPal Pay Later, allowing buyers to purchase now and pay in installments — making it practical to try a fuller range of lash styles without a large single upfront payment.
