The BGT judge's makeup artist Christian Vermaak took to Instagram and posted some snaps of Amanda Holden on his page, before revealing he uses Ardell Wispies to achieve her flawless looks.

The full and fluttery lashes, which can be bought from Boots, feature an invisible band and have an elongated centre which helps the 53-year-old achieve a stunning eye-opening look.

The kit includes two strips of lashes, which can be reused several times if taken care of, along with a tube of Duo lash adhesive.

And it's not just Amanda who is a fan, with satisfied Boots customers rushing online to leave five star reviews of the beauty buy.

Best eyelashes I have ever used. I will buy them time and time again

Satisfied Boots customer

One person, who branded them "the greatest lashes in my opinion," wrote: "I have now tried 3 other brands but none compare to these are the only ones I can recommend.

"They have a very fine band so they look very natural.

"Usually they recommend only using false eyelashes 5 times but you can, with care, wear these many more times if you gently ease off the used glue each time you remove them."

A second happy customer praised the false lashes for being the "perfect fit."

They continued: "I have fairly big hooded eyes and I feel like other lashes are way too dramatic however this works with any look.

"It's also very easy to apply. Best lashes I've tired so far. I would however recommend the duo glue, it lasts longer."

Meanwhile, a third claimed: "Best eyelashes I have ever used. I will buy them time and time again."

She went on to praise the band for being "flexible," which makes them easy to to apply, while she says the glue keeps them in place all day.

"I could even sleep in them and they wouldn't budge," the beauty fan added.

Britain's Got Talent's biggest 'fix' rows

Britain's Got Talent has been plagued with 'fix' rows over the years. How many of these do you remember?

Jasmine Elcock - 2016: Teenage singer Jasmine Elcock stunned the nation with her version of Cher's Believe. But it then transpired she had already performed professionally in London's West End. Jasmine, 14, admitted: "I’ve performed in Annie in the West End at about the age of nine or 10, but I really get nervous."

IrShad Shaikh - 2017: BGT fans were left questioning the rule book when IrShad Shaikh auditioned. He got four red buzzers from the judges, which would usually mean an instant dismissal. Yet in a strange turn of events, they let him continue with his act...and put him through to the next round.

Colin Thackery - 2019: Elderly war veteran Colin won BGT in 2019, but there was an outcry over the final. He warbled his place to win with a version of We'll Meet Again but fans were furious that escapologist Jonathan Goodwin didn't even rank in the top three. Viewers felt Jonathan - who almost suffocated while being buried alive in a gravel pit - should have won.

Axel Blake - 2022: Comedian Axel Blake was given a Golden Buzzer in 2022 after making the judges laugh. But fans were fuming when they discovered Axel already had a show on worldwide streaming platform Amazon Prime. Despite this, Axel still went on to win the series.

Loren Allred - 2022: The 2022 series of BGT was hit with another controversy when singer Loren Allred also received a Golden Buzzer. She performed Never Enough from the smash hit musical movie The Greatest Showman and got a standing ovation. It later transpired Loren was actually the original voice behind the track.

Taryn Charles - 2024: Singer Taryn Charles is one of this year's hopefuls lucky enough to receive the Golden Buzzer. Bruno Tonilio put her straight through to the semi-finals following her performance of (You Make Me Feel Like) A Natural Woman by Aretha Franklin, but it has now come to light that she is no stranger to TV. Viewers recognised Taryn from an episode of ITV1's Starstruck, where she impersonated Whitney Houston for judges Olly Murs, Sheridan SmithAdam Lambert and Beverley Knight.

Meanwhile, a further chimed in: "My favourite.

"Absolutely love these, don't look too dramatic and the lash line blends very well with your own so they're easy to apply rather than the ones with a solid lash band.

"The duo glue included is also the best I've used!"
