FALSE EYELASHES WITH GLUE
It is a classic solution that has existed on the market for decades but their popularity has grown thanks to the growing popularity of social media. There are pros and cons to this false eyelash system.
PROS:
And certainly one of the cheapest solutions
AGAINST:
- Glue is toxic
- The glue leaves white residue visible on the eye.
Not many people know this but the glue used to attach eyelashes is one of the most toxic and least healthy things for our eyes. Let's not talk about the glue that is used to do extensions in a salon. The risk of developing an eye allergy is quite high. Just search social media for videos and photos of girls leaving the salon with red eyes and tears. For those with sensitive eyes or suffer from allergies it is not an optimal solution.
If you're not an expert makeup artist and don't know how to clean the glue before it dries, you risk walking around with dandruff-style white residue on your eye.
MAGNETIC EYELASHES
A valid alternative are magnetic eyelashes. They are applied with a simple black magnetic eyeliner that contains no glue and is free of allergens. Magnetic eyeliner contains iron oxide already commonly used in mascara.
INVISIBLE MAGNETIC LASHES
They are the new generation magnetic eyelashes. They do not have a magnet on the band like classic magnetic eyelashes, but have a very thin and invisible magnetic powder on the surface which allows the eyelashes to adhere to the eyeliner in a few seconds without unsightly glue residues. This makes a lot of difference in terms of ease of use and weight on the eye.
PROS: They are the easiest to put on.
CONS: You need to have some experience in applying eyeliner
A valid alternative are magnetic eyelashes. They are applied with a simple black magnetic eyeliner that contains no glue and is free of allergens. Magnetic eyeliner contains iron oxide already commonly used in mascara.
EYELASH EXTENSIONS
The extensions must be applied one by one in the salon by a professional lash maker. The application lasts approximately 90 minutes. You may like the effect they have or not but they are not always natural. This technique requires a lot of experience.
PROS:
- lashes last 2-3 weeks
AGAINST
- high cost
- risk of losing your natural eyelashes
- risk of developing eye allergies
