Make the lash game strong!

False eyelashes have the power to transform your face in a very subtle manner. They add instant glamour even to your most subtle makeup look, making you camera-ready at all times. But, if you’re someone who prefers to opt for fake eyelashes rather than just brushing the lids with mascara, then get ready to experiment, as there are at least 5 different types of fake eyelashes in the market, waiting for you. You may find yourself a little confused, but let’s dig deep into the main 5 types of fake eyelashes that are trending right now.

2/6

Strip lashes

Strip lashes are great for beginners because they are easy to apply and offer a convenient dose of ultra glamour with a dramatic look, even if you need them for a night. If you like a softer look, then most strip lashes won’t work for you, as they try to give as natural a look as possible, but still, the usual strip always becomes visible above the lash line, which at times looks awkward. Always trim the band to fit your eyes, apply glue to the base, and then stick it for under 30 seconds. You can apply a layer of liner to hide the strip line.

Individual single lashes

Single eyelashes require intense patience and can be very difficult to work with. They work marvellously if you have a stronghold glue, but it is a difficult process. For an average beauty enthusiast, this option can rarely be worth the effort. But if you have gaps in your lash line, then surely these single lashes will be worth it, as they easily fill in the sparse areas, making your eyes look naturally fuller. You need to apply a drop of glue to the base of each lash and place it exactly where you want it, making the process slow.

Individual flare lashes

Individual flare lashes are great for anyone who wishes to have more control over the shape of their eyelashes and won’t mind putting in an extra effort. They are available in a wide range of sizes and can be used for natural and dramatic styles. They are also a great option for those who instantly wish to amp up the lash line. Stage performers usually apply these on their lower lash line for a doll-like appearance.

5/6

Magnetic false lashes

If you’re allergic to lash glue ingredients and want something easy, then magnetic lashes are an impeccable choice for you. They come off in seconds without any pulling of your natural lashes but have a drawback, as they can slip off more easily than other false eyelashes. They’re also nice if you struggle with eyelash glue because they are very easy to apply. The only issue is that the magnets may feel heavy and can weigh the eyelids down, making you feel most uncomfortable.

6/6

Eyelash extensions

Eyelash extensions are a great option for anyone who wishes to have a long-lasting, dramatic lash affair and doesn’t mind spending money on them. They are done by professionals and are very convenient. You simply need to make a salon appointment, where the eyelash technicians are professionals who are experts in creating complex and custom looks. But the service is usually quite expensive and ranges between Rs 2000 and Rs 8000.
