A Complete Guide to False Eyelashes 

The idea of false lashes can be so overwhelming and intimidating due to the endless options of lengths, shapes, and styles. If you're feeling lost and do not know how to choose the right false lash, you are not alone! We’ve made you a guide to false lashes to help you feel more confident when shopping for your next pair of lashes. Be prepared; this guide has A LOT of info.

Let’s start with the basics: lash shape. There are two standard lash shapes: round and flared. 

---

ROUND LASHES 

Round lashes maintain a consistent, rounded shape throughout the style. The majority of the length will be focused in the center of the lash, while the inner and outer corners are shorter. This shape makes your eyes appear bigger, creating a doll-eye look / doe-eye look. 

Moving on to the next category of false lashes, volume.  Volume refers to the thickness and fullness of the lash, and it can make the biggest difference on your overall look. There are three standard types of lash volume: natural, soft, and full. 

1. Natural volume lashes: Adds subtle definition to the eyes with minimal density. Natural volume lashes are light and airy, ideal for those who wear minimal makeup (concealer, blush, and mascara).

2. Soft volume lashes: Adds more noticeable fullness while maintaining a somewhat natural look. Soft volume lashes are the perfect mix of full and natural volume, ideal for those wanting to achieve a "soft glam" look (light base makeup, lipstick, and neutral eyeshadow).

3. Full volume lashes: Adds dramatic length and density to the eye. Full volume lashes often has multiple layers or tightly packed fibers for a bold look. Ideal for those wanting a full glam look (full coverage base, eyeliner, lipstick, and dramatic eyeshadow).

7 TYPES OF FALSE LASHES

1. Strip Lashes: Fibers attached to a full-length lash band, applied across the lash line.

2. Mini lashes: Our mini lashes feature the same designs as our signature styles just with a shorter band and shorter lash fibers. 

Our Mini Collection is designed to offer:

✔️ lashes for smaller eyes

✔️ lashes for glasses wearers 

✔️ lashes for contact wearers 

🌟 Mini lashes are great for anyone looking for comfortable, easy-to-apply lashes that enhance the eyes without being too dramatic.

3. Demi lashes: Our Demi lashes are half lashes that create a more natural, lifted look by adding subtle length and volume to the outer corners of the eyes, enhancing them without the fullness of a full strip. Demi lashes are easy to apply with no trimming or measuring required. 

🌟Best for: Those wanting an elongated cat-eye or fox-eye look without the hassle. Demi lashes are great for every level of lash wearer. They are also a great option for those with smaller eyes who find a full-strip lash too much. 

4. Individual Lashes: Single lashes or small clusters that can be applied one at a time for a more customizable look. They can be applied alone along the lash line, or used to fill spare areas for a more dramatic look. These allow you to have full control over your volume and style. 

🌟Best For: Those who want a customizable lash style. 

5. Faux Mink Lashes: 100% cruelty-free synthetic lashes that mimic the appearance of mink lashes. Our faux mink styles offer a lightweight and wispy look

6. Faux Silk Lashes: 100% cruelty-free synthetic lashes that mimic the smooth, glossy finish of silk. Faux silk lashes usually have a slightly shinier appearance than faux mink, offering a more sleek and polished look.

7. Natural Fiber Lashes: These lashes are made from sterilized human hair. Because they’re made from human hair, these lashes blend seamlessly with your natural lashes, giving a more natural, subtle look compared to synthetic options. 

4 DIFFERENT TYPES OF LASH BANDS

1. Clear Band: made from a nearly invisible, transparent material. The clear lash band is designed to blend seamlessly with your natural lash line, making the lashes appear more natural, especially when not wearing eyeliner.

2. Cotton Blend Band: made from a durable black cotton thread. The cotton blend band is visible enough to give the illusion of eyeliner and add dimension to the lash line.

3. Jelly Band®: made from a soft, flexible, and transparent material with a jelly-like consistency. This barely there band molds to the eyelid’s shape to seamlessly fit the lash line for all-day wear.

4. Flexible Black Band: made from a durable black cotton thread and is designed to provide more flexibility. It is visible and can create the illusion of eyeliner, adding dimension to the lash line.
