Synthetic eyelash extensions are made from a glossy, dyed material and are the strongest of all materials used to make lashes. In appearance, synthetic eyelash extensions are shinier than the mink or silk lashes, and when they are applied dimly, they appear more impressive. They have a wide range of thicknesses and curls and can be applied to give a natural look. 

Due to their firmness, they hold their curl well. They are more durable than mink and silk but are not considered natural-looking. They are mostly preferred by users with dense natural lashes and are popular especially in younger clients. They are not a great option for the majority since they are considered weightier than silk or mink lash extensions.

Silk Eyelash Extensions

Silk Eyelash Extensions are medium in weight compared to the other type of lash extensions. They have a fine texture and are more flexible than synthetic lash extensions. Due to their softness, they always hold on a bit longer than synthetic lash extensions. You can easily make them look very glamorous and natural, in the process quite look denser just like the synthetic lashes. This type is ideal if your eyes are weak since they are featherweight to the user than the synthetic ones.

Silk Eyelash Extensions are said to last longer than synthetic lashes and they are made to look more natural amongst the actual lashes. Just like synthetic lashes, silk lashes also have a good number of curls and lengths, but they turn out to be a better option for users who desire to look more natural since the curl is not as artificial as synthetic lashes. This type of lash extension is one of the most popular choices for most brides, who need lashes that are full and long but still have a natural appearance.

Mink Lash Extensions

Most of us are seriously against animal cruelty, that’s the reason why we will never promote real mink fur for lash extensions. Faux-mink lashes are designed to copy real mink fur but they are synthetic fibers. They are very soft and tender just like real fur. They are very unique since they are created to prevent loss of curl just in case they get direct contact with water. When they get wet, real mink fur lashes become straight, this will force you to curl them back using a curler.

Faux-mink lashes are currently on the rise since they are so light and fine, they feel exactly just like your own natural lashes. They are also more smooth in fabric than the silk lashes, making them have a glossy look. They are durable when well taken care of and they are ideal also if your natural lashes are fine and delicate. They don’t tend to drop or twist because they are so light, even after many weeks of putting them on.
