Morphology

falsie = false (transparent) = false + ie

Built from 'false' + '-ie' to denote a fake/imitative object (in this case, an artificial eyelash), so the derivation is clear.

Etymology

Falsie comes from the word false ('not real') with the friendly little ending -ie, so it names a small fake thing you add to your look. Think of falsies as fake eyelashes that give extra length or volume but are not your real lashes, and that is exactly what the word describes.
