Lashes in Warren, MI | Types, Materials and Styles

Faux mink and silk

Faux mink is a synthetic fiber made to mimic the softness and taper of natural hair, with a matte finish that reads as real rather than plastic. Silk lashes are also synthetic despite the name, typically a little glossier and holding a firmer curl. Both are describing a finish and a feel rather than an animal product, which is worth knowing since the names suggest otherwise.

Standard synthetic

Plastic fiber with a uniform thickness and a shinier finish. It holds a strong curl, costs the least and gives the most dramatic effect, which is why it dominates the bold end of the wall. Under daylight the shine can read as obviously artificial, so it suits evenings and photographs better than a natural daytime look.

Magnetic lashes

These use a magnetic eyeliner rather than adhesive, with magnets in the band that grip the liner. They remove the glue step entirely, come off cleanly and are reusable many times. The trade is that the liner has to be applied precisely and reasonably thick, and the hold is less absolute than a good adhesive under humidity or rubbing.

Individual and cluster lashes

Rather than one strip, these are small groups of lashes applied where you want density. They look more natural because you control the placement, and gaps in your own lashes can be filled specifically. They take longer, need a finer adhesive, and are worth learning if strips have never sat well on your eye shape.
