A set of Photoshop & GIMP brushes composed of various shapes of eyelashes.
I’ve seen a few other brush sets out there for this kind of thing, but they all seemed to be of closed eyes, or the basic shape of fake eyelashes when they’re in the case. These are made up of mostly open eyes, and most were taken straight on (front view). There’s a few closed, a few lower lashes, one or two from a side-ish view, and a few sets of funky/wild eyelashes. It includes both left and right eyes, for ease of use. They average about 900 pixels in size.
This set was requested at one point or another, and I finally got around to buying some fake eyelashes and putting them on for some pictures. The shape may need to be adjusted slightly, depending on your model’s eye shape, but I’ve found that they work pretty well on most eye shapes without needing much. Enjoy!

Tip:
So, these you’ll want to change the shape of these so that they fit the eye perfectly, right? Here’s how to do it!
- In your layers window, click on “Create a New Layer” to do just that.
- Now, on that new layer, click and use the eyelash brush of your choice. Get it as close to the size and shape as you can.
- On the top menu, go under Edit > Transform. There are several choices now for you, depending on what you need to choose. Resize will, of course, help you resize the eyelashes a bit. Rotate will do just that, rotating the eyelashes so that they fit the right angle on the eye. Distort is another one you may want to use, as it will change the “orientation” of the brush so that it helps fit the eye better. And last, but definitely not least, is Warp – and this one you will only have from Photoshop CS or CS2 onward. Warp will help you so that you can get the shape and curvature of the eyelashes just right… but be careful using it. If you use it TOO much, you can make the eyelashes become too smudgy looking. I use Distort to shape it for the most part, and then Warp to fix any small fixes after that.
- That’s it! Make sure to make a new layer again and do the same thing when you go to add the eyelashes for the other eye. Only ONE set of eyelashes should be on each layer, or else you’ll find it too hard to fit them both perfectly.

thank your brush
Thanks for the brushes. Very beautiful, and they work wonderfully.
Thanks a lot for brush!)
Thanks for this lovely brush!! Love it!!
Thank you, it is really appreciated
how do i add the lash to photoshop and then to my picture?
Lucy: If you follow the links in the sidebar that explain how to install and use brushes, then that’ll explain it. Or, here’s a direct link: http://www.obsidiandawn.com/installing-photoshop-brushes-tutorial
Hope this helps!
Thanks, everyone :)
when i unzip my file..it stays as a JPG file..not ABR??
Sarah: Then you are downloading the image pack and not the brushes. Click on the first link, the one that says “DOWNLOAD THE BRUSHES” – that’s what you want. Maybe just a mis-click?
If my portret is not stright, it is possible to change the position of the brush???
Oli: Yep. Check out the brush tip in this blog entry:
http://www.obsidiandawn.com/swirl-parts-photoshop-gimp-brushes
That’s the most efficient way of switching the position of a brush. Good luck!
Thank u for the brushes, they work like a dream and look great. Highly recommended.
how do you download all of them? cuz when i click download brushes, only one comes up
you are downloading a zipped abr file that contains all of the brushes. Check out the sidebar link on installing brushes for installation instructions.
Thanks so much, I’ll start using them right away!!!
They are gorgeous
thanks for brushes
thank’s lot
I have Corel Paint Shop Pro X2 ultimate and everytime i try to upload hese brushes on the programme it says that its to new and does not support it or somthing, could you please help me as i really love these brushes.
I’m trying to download this for The Gimp… So. I unzipped it, but I can’t open it because there isn’t a file that supports it… I can’t open it with GIMP for some reason, and nothing else reads it. Help please? :D
Oh, yes!!! I’m sorry I’ve figured it out. Thanks anyway they look fantastic! :D
it’s very useful for fashion designing students…. if we get hairstyle shillouttes also we are quite thankful to ur website….
after download the brushes and place it on the brushes folder i colse the folder and open photoshop and i cant see the brushes
Guadalupe: Did you unzip the file?
So, the file is a ZIP file.
How would we trasfer that to an ABR?
Actually, nevermind.
Thanks for the brushes.
I absolutely love it.
yes i did were do i download the eyelash shape?
i mean the image
@guadalupe: right where it says “DOWNLOAD THE IMAGE PACK”
I have tutorials and an FAQ that explains ALL of this, so please feel free to read those for your answer. They’re all in the sidebar on the right.
i have corel photo shop pro x2, and i have been trying for the last hour to get these eyelashes into my photoshop, please help me. its not working for me.
@olga: I’ve never heard of Photoshop Pro. Are you sure you don’t have Paint Shop Pro? Because these weren’t made to be used in PSP (Paint Shop Pro). You will have to download the image pack and make them into brushes yourself. Sorry!
that’s charming..
I love them.
thanks.
Thanks for the brushes, they are really cool!
I’m not sure if this could work for Photoshop Elements 6 because I can’t seem to use it. Is it because I don’t have the GIMP application? I downloaded it and placed it in my “Programme Files” and I’ve also extracted it but when I start the application, there’s no eyelash brushes there. Can you please help me? Please email me at kaya–xd@hotmail.com. Thanks very much and sorry for the inconvenience.
@kaya–xd: No problem, Kaya! What you need to do first is unzip the file. You can find a tutorial on it in my sidebar, or here: http://www.obsidiandawn.com/how-to-unzip-a-file
Once it’s unzipped, follow this tutorial (also in the sidebar): http://www.obsidiandawn.com/installing-photoshop-brushes-tutorial
It will definitely work in Photoshop Elements 6, though! So just make sure you’re unzipping it and placing it into the right directory ( Program Files > Photoshop > Presets > Brushes )
Good luck, and let me know if you have any further problems!
=D yipee! Thx so much! I wanted to give up at first because I can’t seem to understand but I figured it out in the end! THANKS ALOT! I WILL DEFINITELY TELL ALL MY FRIENDS TO DOWNLOAD YOUR BRUSHES!
thank you very much for the brushes, lovely eyelashes!
thankyou so much for these! I was looking for eyelash brushes I could use as transmaps for 3d applications. These look perfect.
thank you very brush ^^
thanks for the brushes… it’s really very useful and convenient…

thank u so much, i’m lovin it so much ^_^
thanks a lot, the brushes are so cool
Very interesting brushes. I will mention them in my next digital magazine called PhotoshopNewsletter. Sorry it is only in spanish language…
Bernard
this brushes works with cs2?
i have gimp2
when i downloaded these lashes
and then i tried clicking on it
but it says error and it failed to work
how do i fix this?
@francesca: Yep. All of my brushes work with Photoshop 7 and higher, including CS2 (which is what I use them in all the time).
Enjoy!
@Dianna: Are you unzipping the file? Check out my sidebar for a link that explains how to unzip the file… and there’s another right below it that explains how to install them.
You don’t actually use brush files by clicking on the file. You open GIMP and load them from in there.
egt geweldige wimper brushes…
thanks for the lovely set of brushes
Beautiful job with the lashes brush. I look forward to testing them out :)
Many Thanks for this great work. It was a quiet a tiring task to create eye lashes. A terrific job done. Again a special thanks to the creator.
thank you very much! i’ve just seen this, i’m not using it still because i’m still downloading! thank you very much! you made everything in photoshop very easy!
when i double click my icon on my desktop, it goes straight to adobe and i keep getting the message…could not complete your request it is not the right kind of file…. i also get this happening when i try to de-zip it. Your lightening brushes worked fine (there brill Thanks), but i cannot get any other brushes, please try and help me solve this. Great site. Thank you.
@Anne: It sounds like it thinks you’re clicking on an ABR file, not a ZIP file. Are you sure you haven’t unzipped it already? That’s what happens when you try to “open” an ABR file – it opens Photoshop and then does nothing. You have to load them into the correct directory in Photoshop for them to show up – check out my tutorial on installing brushes in my sidebar, that should help. :)
Hii i am trying to download this cuz i love it
But wen i download it and double click it to put it onto Adobe CS4
it doesnt let me?!
i only have one eyelash brush in there,
and i dont no whether that was there befor – Please someone help me x
@Alexx: Are you unzipping it? Placing it into your Presets > Brushes folder? I have a link in my sidebar that explains how to install brushes, so make sure you’re following that. If you’re still having trouble, let me know!
BTW, the file for these will be called “SS-Eyelashes” – so that’s what you’re looking for to load. If it doesn’t say that, then they were someone else’s brushes. :)
Heyy guys iv always wanted a photo edited but could never do one i tried but i have no clue in what im doin :( could someone please edit a picture for me it would mean alot
manyy thanks delaney x
These brushes are amazing!! Thanks soo much for all of them :]
will these work for cs2
Thankyou soooo much!
@xplicitmami: Yep! All of my brushes will. When it says they’re for Photoshop 7+, that means they’ll work in any Photoshop that came out since 7, including all of the CS’s. Enjoy!

when i click on download the brushes it says Address Not Found
Firefox can’t find the server at odbrushes.s3.amazonaws.com

@Amber: Hmm. Well, either that was a temporary problem with my file storage, or there is some setting in your browser that is preventing you from being able to download it. Check it again, and see if you’re getting the same error. If you’re not, great! If you are, let me know and I’ll email it to you if you have an email account that will accept a file that large. You could also tinker with your browser’s settings, if you’re familiar with how to do that. For some reason, it’s blocking either obsidiandawn.com (the script that redirects to the file) or amazonaws.com (where my files are stored).
Sounds like it was a temporary problem to me, and should be resolved. Let me know!
Hello..I downloaded this brushes..i’ve unzipped them..but I can’t see them in photoshop.I use photoshop CS2.Can you please tell me what’s the problem? I need them badly! :(.I also downloaded some shapes..and I see them in photoshop,but the brushes no.so PLEASE help! :(
@Beatrice: Did you put them into the right directory? If so, close and re-open Photoshop. That’s the only problem I can think of, as long as theyr’e unzipped and in the right directory. But if you install them with PS open, they won’t show up directly until the NEXT time you open it.
Also, if that doesn’t work, you can still load these brushes by choosing “Replace Brushes” and then navigating to the ABR file and load it that way.
Hope this helps!
I have photoshop 7.0 and none of these eyelashes work or appear on my photoshop, what do i do!??? PLZ I NEED HELP!
@DanoBoBano: Did you follow my tutorial on installing brushes? I assure you, they DO work if you have Photoshop 7! Check out my tutorial on installing and using brushes in my sidebar, and make sure you’re unzipping them and putting them into the correct folder, etc. Let me know if you still need help after that, and what’s going wrong.
hi! can ask something
how can i apply the eye lashes if my picture is a bit slant..
how can make it fit to the picture… or to the eyes
Hey,
I’m a Mac user, with Ps CS3
I followed your instructions best I could.
But when i downloaded it, it was already an abr. file.
So I continued anyway, dropped it in applications>ps>presets>brushes.
Then I restarted PS, opened the brushes and there was only one set of eyelashes in there…
So I started all over again, re-downloaded, but then there were NONE in there!
Please help me, I love your brushes and would love to use them in PS :)
Thanks so much.
@sweety: I’ve gotten this question so much, I’ve added the answer to the bottom of this blog post, under the “Tips” section. Check it out there! :)
@poortommy: Hmm. Well, the only thing I can think of that could be going on there is that you had the program open when you downloaded them? Make sure PS is closed, or else you’ll have to close it and re-open it. (And by “closed,” I mean closed entirely – ie, on a Mac, you’d need to go into that top menu and choose to close it, not just close the window.) I’m not sure what could be causing this to happen. If they are in the Brushes folder, they should show up within the list of your brushes, no problem. Make sure you’re looking under “SS-eyelashes” because that’s what they’re titled – not just “Eyelashes.”
Let me know if you’re still having any trouble!
thank you for the brushes. . . you can find my work here:
http://www.flickr.com/photos/8804947@N03/3379665391/
Hey, I just tried that. I shut Ps through Force Quit and re-downloaded the brushes and they still downloaded as an .abr file! Hm… Maybe, if its not too much trouble, you could email me the .zip file? I just really love these brushes!! I’ll keep trying to get it to work though, but if you have the time, my e-mail is bad_pie@hotmail.com
Thanks heaps!!!
oh YAY! i figured it out! all i had to do was import them manually, through edit>preset manager :D
Hey,
These brushes were just what I was after to finish a vector I was doing, thanks man. Totally awesome.
Cool….thank you!
jejej

i don t understand how to download….i download but i need some serial number… i don t now how can i downloal brushes…
ps:sory about my english…i m from CROATIA…
@yany_vory: You shouldn’t need anything to either download them or unzip them. I’m not sure what you mean. They are free for use, as long as you credit me anywhere you use them. I have instructions for installing brushes in my sidebar, if that helps!
how to unzip them?? and where is your sidebar….
ps:sory i don t understand….i need a little help
@yany_vory: No problem! If you scroll up to the top of this (and every) page, then look on the right hand side, there are headings with links under them. One of them is “Getting Started” as a heading, with “Installing Brushes” beneath it. It will bring you to a tutorial that explains how to unzip them and install them. However, here’s a direct link. :)

I love you sooo much! thanks!
FINALY I HAVE A BRUSHES….tnx
ZOMG~ I LOVE YOU~ Eyelashes have been such a pain in the butt for me when i just wanna crop an eye~ This set is the best i’ve come across thanks a buzillion~
Thank you so much for sharing!! These brushes are the best out there.
Thank youuuuuuuuuu…..for the brushes….cooolllll
Thank you:)
I have a little problem though, I have GIMP 2.6.5, and on the edit tab thingy, there’s no ‘transform’ choice.
Can you please help me with that?
;]
I’m afraid I have not used GIMP in my life. I KNOW they have a comparable tool, but I have not a clue what it is, sorry! You could probably do a Google search for “GIMP resize” or “GIMP transform” and it should be able to help you!
Sorry that I couldn’t help you out more. :(
these brushes work wonderfully. thanks!
hello, i am new to photoshop elements 7.0 and have just recently bought it. i have been toying around with it for days, and watching youtube videos, when i came along your site. it seems people prefer it, and i love your brushes, i have tried downloading several packages many times, but every time i go into my photoshop to get the brush, they don’t appear, and i have followed all f your steps to get the file.
the documents show up whenever i go to the start menu, then my documents, and go into the correct file, however; when i start photoshop and try to access the file from that location, it’s like they aren’t even saved. please help me
@Morgan: Well, I’m not all that versed in Photoshop Elements compared to Photoshop. However, it sounds like you may not be unzipping the file? Or not putting them into the right place.
So, 1. make sure that the file is an ABR file. If it’s still a ZIP, unzip it first (I have a tutorial for how in my sidebar). 2. Make sure that you’re putting the ABR file into the Photoshop > Presets > Brushes folder.
That should be ALL you have to do for the brushes to show up. If they’re not showing up, there’s another way to load them. And I”m going to describe how to do it in Photoshop, but in Photoshop Elements it should be almost exactly the same.
Save the brushes on your desktop, so they’re easy to find. Make sure they’re unzipped. Click on the little arrow to the right of the brush you have currently loaded, up just below your top menu to open the “brush preset picker.” From there, click on the small arrow on the upper right of that window that popped up. This is where you usually find and load brushes (or one place to). Instead of choosing a brush set, choose “Load Brushes” or “Replace Brushes” – then look for the file on your desktop. If THAT doesn’t work, then it was a bad download or there’s something wrong somewhere with a setting in your Photoshop, and I’m not sure what to tell you.
Good luck!
darn !
this brushes ARE A BUNCH OF HELP !
thanks a lot !
keep it up :)
looking for more :D
My WinZip won’t let me open ABR files, do you know how it can?
@Lilac: Once it’s an ABR, it’s already unzipped. It must have done it as it downloaded it. :) Now just put the file into your Photoshop > Presets > Brushes folder, and you’re good to go! I have more installation instructions in my sidebar if you need it.
ME podrias mandar actualizaciones a mi e-mail??
porfavor
lo encontre super lindo tu pagina
