Honey Boo Boo, 16, claps back at haters by wearing fake eyelashes on family outing with sister Pumpkin, 22, and her kids
HONEY Boo Boo has responded to online trolls criticizing her heavy makeup by donning fake eyelashes during a family outing.
The reality star - whose real name is Alana Thompson - participated in a photoshoot with her older sister, Lauryn "Pumpkin" Efird.
The photos showed the siblings in the park alongside Lauryn's husband, Josh, and their four children.
Lauryn and Josh are parents to a daughter Ella, four, a son Bentley, 11 months, and newborn twins.
Alana's boyfriend, Dralin, 21, also joined the group for the outing.
It seemed like a casual afternoon trip as Lauryn sported shorts, a loosely fitted Simpson's t-shirt, and flats.

The TV star wore no makeup, glasses, and her wavy brunette hair down as she enjoyed her time with her family.
Her husband also rocked similar attire with a backward baseball cap as they sat on a blanket on the grass with their kids.
Alana sat behind them with her boyfriend, who was seen admiring the little ones in the photos.
The 16-year-old dressed in a tie-dye t-shirt and shorts and her long blonde hair flowing down her back.

She took her ensemble up a notch, pairing the look with extreme fake eyelashes as she gazed directly at the camera.
The makeup choice came after fans begged the teen to ditch her over-the-top cosmetic routine for a more age-appropriate look.
'RIDICULOUS'
Alana recently appeared in photos exclusively revealed by The Sun with her sister Lauryn, her brother-in-law, and their twin babies.
The former pageant queen again sported a casual outfit with massive false eyelashes and long fake nails.
She also appeared to have heavy makeup on her face.
The family snaps circulated online, where many fans were too distracted by Alana's appearance to focus on the newborns.
One commenter wrote: "Alana's lashes are a LOT and her nails!"
Another added: "It's hard to look at anything but Alana's ridiculous lashes."
A third commenter agreed: "Obnoxious eyelashes are the latest trend. My nieces walk around looking like they are about to take flight I just look at them and smh."
FULL CUSTODY
Alana has been spending a lot of time with her sister, as 22-year-old Lauryn was recently awarded full custody of the teenager.
Lauryn was granted guardianship due to Alana not getting the proper care from their mother, June "Mama June"; Shannon.
June, 42, who struggles with drug addiction, has been estranged from her daughters.
In a clip for Friday's episode of Mama June: Road to Redemption, June vowed to regain custody of her daughter after getting in a heated argument with Lauryn.
"Alana can stay here," June declared, angering Lauryn, who is the teen's decision-maker.
"Ah! Alana is not staying here. Get that through your thick f***ing skull," she yelled back. "Why would I let her come over here and stay? I'm her momma now."
June was not pleased with her daughter's reaction, sarcastically responding: "Yea, you got that in writing?"
In a confessional interview, the family matriarch insisted that she could "take her [Alana] back" anytime.
"I'm still the momma, Alana is mine, and I can take her back anytime I want," June stated.
Lauryn was not backing down, clapping back in an interview: "I've worked my a** off to build this family that was somewhat functional, and I'd be damned if I let Mama come back around and change all that."
SISTERS SHOW?
Lauryn and Alana have continued to distance themselves from their troubled mother as the duo is in talks to star in their own reality show.
"They are in talks about having their own show and they will be meeting about it in the next few weeks," a source exclusively told The Sun.
The insider said the family is on their way to Los Angeles, although it's unclear if they'll meet with production while they are out there.
"Pumpkin packed up the SUV. She is driving out there with Josh, the twins who are just two months old, Ella and Bentley. Alana and Dralin are also driving.
They are taking two cars because they can't all fit, especially with all those car seats!"
