Lash Enhancement: What You Need to Know?
You’ve heard the saying, your eyes are the window to your soul, and this makes your eyelashes the curtains! Long, luscious lashes are always in style and will make your eyes stand out. But, how can you get fuller lashes that make your eyes pop?
There are a few different lash enhancement methods you can try. There are temporary makeup solutions, serums to promote natural growth, and semi-permanent extensions.
But, which one is right for you, how do they work, and what can you expect?
Mascara
Mascara is a product most of us already have in our beauty bag. It’s for lighter lashes needing a boost and is applied using an applicator wand. Mascara is inexpensive and works instantly.
The right mascara will give the illusion of length and volume, and won’t clump or run. Mascara can cause eye sensitivity, so look for a product that is free from fragrances. Waterproof mascara can be a good choice for those occasions when you might sweat (or cry), but it can cause long-term damage if not removed correctly.
Lash Growth Serum
Want to promote the appearance of your natural lashes? Then put an eyelash serum on your shopping list. We like the Lash Boost Serum from Rodan+Fields, a bestselling product that conditions the lashes and encourages them to grow.
This serum can be applied along your lashlines, after cleansing and once the area has dried. With regular use, your eyelashes will become stronger, thicker, and fuller, and you may even be able to say goodbye to mascara.
Temporary False Lashes
For a night out, you may like to wear false lashes to complement your smoldering eye makeup. If you are going to DIY, strip lashes will be easier to apply than individual ones. You will need to cut your lashes to size, and carefully attach them with eyelash glue.
The application does take some skill, but for special occasions, false lashes can be worth the effort. Keep in mind, long-term use and incorrect application and removal can damage your natural lashes.
Eyelash Extensions
Eyelash extensions are a semi-permanent lash enhancement method. They are attached to your natural lashes and grow out over time. You can expect lash extensions to last 6-8 weeks, and they are typically made from synthetic fibers.
There are different lengths and thicknesses to choose from, depending on whether you want a natural or dramatic look. This process does not come without risks. It is important to visit an experienced technician, as sensitivities can occur. Some people have reported breakage to their natural lashes, and uneven regrowth. Therefore having a huge range of eyelash extension supplies would be great as you can wear your eyelashes extensions any time of the day.
Eyelash Tinting
If you want darker lashes, you may like to try eyelash tinting. This is similar to dying your hair, as the lashes are colored in a dark shade of black, blue-black, or brown. It gives a similar result to mascara but lasts up to 6 weeks.
While the results are effective and can be a good time saver in the morning, be aware that regularly tinting your lashes can lead to dryness and breakage.
What You Need to Know About Lash Enhancement
There is a range of different lash enhancement methods to choose from. Mascara is a quick fix, as a cosmetic option that can be applied with your makeup. If you would prefer to enhance your natural lashes, a lash growth serum can moisturize and protect while promoting growth.
Eyelash tinting lasts up to six weeks and replaces the need for mascara. Then there are false eyelashes for a night out or eyelash extensions for a semi-permanent solution. Good luck!
