Are they worth the hype? Let’s take a look.

What are Magnetic Lashes?

Magnetic lashes have become increasingly popular due to the simple process of applying them. These lashes feature tiny magnets that work together along your lash line as they lock together to stick on. The magnetic force that keeps them on is what so many customers are drawn to; no sticky adhesives, constant reusability and environmentally friendly.

Magnetic lashes are applied on the top and bottom lashes, gripping onto the lash line. The top strip is lined up to the outside of the lash with the inner corner of your eyes. Next, you bring the bottom lashes to meet the top and when they’re close enough together - snap- they lock together to create a voluminous lash set.

Why Adhesive Lashes are Better Than Magnetic Extensions

But are they a better investment than classic lash extensions? We don’t think so. 

Applying magnetic lashes is accessible, but to achieve the same results as glued-on lash extensions, you need a whole lot of practice and hand-eye coordination. Improper magnet application can result in the outer corners curling outwards and making them appear like they’re ‘popping out’ of place.

Consumers that started gung-ho about magnetic lashes quickly lost that passion after a couple of daily wears. Some consumers reported that the magnets on the lashes had connected and pulled away from the other set of lashes, causing eye irritability.

The trick with magnetic lashes is to get the technique down pact. If you don’t apply them properly, you have a high risk of them falling out throughout the day, or them looking out of place. Adhesive lashes enable you to put on your lashes and go - no risk of them falling randomly unless you legitimately forgot the attaching glue.

The purpose of lash extensions is to enhance your look flawlessly. Magnetic lashes, though simple to put on, are not as committed to the lash line as traditional adhesive extensions.
