Magnetic Eyelash Extensions - What's the Deal?
Eyelash Extensions, What's New
Posted by Jennifer Ngo at March 30th, 2023
Magnetic eyelash extensions have been creating quite a buzz in the beauty industry lately, and clients have asked about them. They are the latest addition to the world of false lashes and are said to be a game-changer in terms of convenience and ease of use. In this article, we will explore what magnetic eyelash extensions are, why they exist, their potential use application, and why professional lash artists do not believe they provide the same quality of results.
What are Magnetic Eyelash Extensions?
Magnetic eyelash extensions are a type of false eyelash that uses a magnetic strip to attach to the natural lashes. Unlike traditional false eyelashes that require adhesive to attach to the lash line, magnetic eyelashes use a magnetic strip that attaches to another magnetic strip placed on top of the natural lashes. Theoretically, this allows for a quick and easy application process without lash adhesives.Why Do They Exist?
Magnetic extensions exist to provide an alternative to traditional false eyelashes. The application process for traditional eyelash extensions requires the skill and expertise of a professional lash artist. Magnetic extensions are designed to be easy to apply and remove, making them accessible to a wider audience, primarily targeted for DIYrs at home. Essentially, magnetic eyelash extensions are for those who want to enhance their natural lashes without the commitment and maintenance required by traditional eyelash extensions.Professional Lash Artists and Magnetic Eyelash Extensions
While magnetic eyelash extensions may be convenient and easy to apply, most professional lash artists do not believe they provide the same quality of results as traditional eyelash extensions. The magnetic strip attached to the false lashes can be bulky and difficult to hide, resulting in a less-natural, clunky look. Additionally, the magnetic strip can cause the lashes to shift or move throughout the day, resulting in an uneven appearance. Professional lash artists are also concerned about the long-term effects of magnetic extensions on natural lashes. While traditional eyelash extensions can cause damage to the natural lashes if not applied correctly, magnetic extensions can also cause damage due to the weight of the magnetic strip. Magnetic extensions adhere to a group or clump of natural lashes; this increases the risk of a chunk of your natural lashes being pulled out or damaged rather than the one-to-one experience you would get with extensions. Over time, the weight of the magnetic strip can cause the natural lashes to become structurally weak and damaged.They’re Not Quite Equal
Magnetic extensions are a new addition to the world of lash beauty. While they may be ideal for some who want a quick DIY fix, the results, as far as we’ve seen, are not on the same level of refinement and beauty that traditional lash extensions can achieve.
