Lash Extensions and Serums and Mascaras, Oh My!

by | Jan 5, 2017 | Customers | 2 comments

From lengthening mascaras to growth serums, it’s clear that lush, full lashes are in demand! The market is full of ways to lengthen, thicken and volumize your lashes but how do these products really compare with a quality set of lash extensions? We’re breaking down the pros and cons of some of the beauty industries’ top lash-enhancing products.

Mascaras. The concept of lash enhancement has been around since the early days of ancient Egypt but mascara really came onto the beauty scene in the early 1900s when it was introduced by companies like Rimmel & Maybelline. Pros: Mascara helps us darken, lengthen and thicken our lashes with minimal effort. Cons: Mascaras can sometimes result in clumpy, spider-like lashes that require a few layers to get the dramatic results you desire. You can eliminate mascara from your beauty routine entirely and wake up with fluffy, full lashes day after day!

Serums. It seems like serums are popping up in every beauty aisle with promises of long lashes and mascara-free mornings but is that really true? Pros: Serums like Lash Affair’s Lash & Brow Growth are great for conditioning your natural lashes with vitamins and moisturizing ingredients that promote good lash health. A healthy lash is key to a great set of lash extensions so we recommend using this serum to build up your lash line. Cons: Lash serums are great for lash health but they will not produce the same results as lash extensions. Extensions give you breathtaking depth, volume and texture unlike any other.

Lash Extensions. There’s really nothing on the market that compares to a great set of lash extensions! They help create weightless eye-opening lashes that dramatically transform your look. Whether you are looking for a natural set of classic lashes or you prefer a dramatic set of volume lashes, eyelash extensions are your best choice!
