The beauty industry has seen it all when it comes to lashes, like magnifying mascaras, growth serums, and lash perming to name a few. But no trend has been as popular as eyelash extensions. When creating a makeup look, the lashes are one of the most important aspects to complete the look. Let’s take a look at the different options you can choose from.
Lash Extensions
Eyelash extensions are semi-permanent fibres that are attached to your natural eyelashes to make your lashes look longer, fuller, and darker. Individual lash extensions are applied using a semi-permanent glue to individual lashes. Lash extensions are made of synthetic, mink, faux mink, or silk fibres. Lash extensions also come in a variety of different lengths, curl patterns, and tints so you can customise the look you would like to achieve. Typically, your lash artist will use multiple lengths and curl strengths to create a wide-eyed effect, with longer lashes being placed towards the outer corners of the eyes and shorter lashes placed on the inner corners.
False eyelashes
False lashes are synthetic lashes designed to accentuate your eyes. They are attached to your eyelid just above your natural lashes using a temporary glue. False lashes are available in a variety of lengths and styles to suit any occasion.
Magnetic eyelashes
Magnetic eyelashes secure to one other with a strip of tiny magnets that are placed along your lash line. Essentially you are sandwiching your natural eyelashes between two strips held together with magnetic force. This takes minimal effort to apply and is very quick and effective in creating a dramatic look to your makeup. Other methods include applying a magnetic eyeliner along the base of the lashes and adhering the magnetic lashes onto the eyeliner. Again, a very quick and effective method.
What other options do I have to enhance my lashes?
A lash tint and perm are a great option if you don’t want the hassle of applying lashes every time you do your makeup. The tint will provide the lashes with a dark rich colour while the lash perm will make the lashes look longer and provide a dramatic curl.
