  1. As much press as Jeri’s eyelashes got, I think Gareth’s “implanted” LEDs look far more impressive, and I’d love to see some more details on those. I assume they were embedded in a thin latex prosthetic attached with spirit gum and blended in with makeup. Looks almost seamless though – excellent work!
