You’ve seen your friends wear fluttery fabulous magnetic lashes, and you want them too! But maybe, you’re looking for a slightly toned-down pair that you can wear in everyday life.
Good news! Glamnetic magnetic lashes can look super extra, but we also have natural options. Fair warning: you will become obsessed. That’s why we’re going to give you the scoop on how to flaunt fabulous lashes RN.
What Are Magnetic Lashes
You may still have questions about wearing magnetic lashes, and we totally get it. Fortunately, we have designed magnetic lashes that are safe and super easy to apply. These magnetic beauties have become popular for their safety and ease of application. You’ll soon be calling them your next best friend.
Magnetic lashes are fake eyelashes with tiny magnets adhered to the band of the lashes. These small magnets attract and firmly stick to the magnetic liner that you apply to your lash line. The process is so much easier and less messy than fumbling around with lashes that require glue for adhesion.
Types of Magnetic Lashes
Magnetic lashes are not one-size-fits-all. They come in many lengths, sizes and are made from different materials, so it is essential to know which type of lash you want before you choose to purchase them. We have a lash quiz that will help you with that if you want a little extra input.
There are several types of artificial lashes: synthetic, mink fur, and vegan. Each set of lashes vary in texture and cost. Here’s the breakdown:
Low-Quality Synthetic Lashes
Low-quality synthetic lashes are usually made from recyclable materials and are usually less expensive. These are the types of lashes you’d see for Halloween or costumes.
The integrity of these low-quality synthetic lashes is typically lower than all others. They are also heavier than other lash types and don’t hold the curl as well. You generally wouldn’t wear a pair of low-quality synthetic lashes more than once because they just don’t stand up to much wear.
High-Quality Synthetic Lashes
Some Glamnetic magnetic lashes are designed with high-quality Japanese synthetic fibers that mimic mink. These lashes are vegan and beautiful, and with proper care, they will last you a long time.
Mink fur lashes
Mink lashes tend to be the most expensive out of all types. These lashes are handmade from the fur of the mink tail, which offers an extra wispy effect to the lashes.
Horsehair, though less common and quite expensive, is used at times to make false eyelashes. Horsehair mimics human hair with a light and soft texture.
Vegan lashes
Vegan lashes are designed with synthetic materials that mimic mink. They are light and fluttery, and they’re a fantastic option if you’re looking for lashes that fit into your lifestyle.
What Is Magnetic Eyeliner
Magnetic eyeliner works much like any other liner with some added bonuses. Just swipe it across your upper lash line—you can even create a cute winged effect at the outer corner of your eye. This liner will act as your “glue” for the magnetic lash band, with all the holding power and none of the mess.
Magnetic eyeliner is made of iron oxide, which is safe for your eyes and skin. It contains magnetic properties and can be found in many of your cosmetics, such as lipstick, eye shadows, and foundations.
The good news is that the FDA has found magnetic liner to be safe, so you can wear your new lashes without a care in the world. Remember, you should always perform a patch test if you are concerned about any possible irritation.
Is Magnetic Eyeliner Safe
Most eye cosmetics are safe to use around the eye area when used correctly. It is super important to remember never to share your favorite cosmetics with your besties, because that adds the risk of introducing germs and bacteria that can cause eye and skin irritation.
Regardless, though, magnetic lashes are safer to use than lashes that require glue because they don’t contain harsh chemicals.
Options: Which Lashes Should You Choose?
There is no right or wrong answer when it comes to which lashes you should choose. If you crave a more natural look, then mink is likely your best option. That said, we also have a vegan lash option that mimics the soft, fluttery look of mink, so you’ll look stunning either way.
Here are a few natural-looking Glamnetic magnetic lash options to check out:
- Livin’: These mink lashes are soft and wispy, the perfect option for a subtle boost of oomph. They are great for natural day wear or for those of you who have never worn falsies before.
- Unreal: Glamnetic designed these for those of you that want an everyday dramatic look. The Unreal lashes are short lashes made from high-quality Japanese synthetic fibers. They are subtle enough to be worn daily yet have enough drama to look glam.
- Princess: You’ll feel like a princess while wearing this lash set. These lashes are designed with a half lash style for a natural look. It’s a fluffy, cat-eye lash made with high-quality vegan materials that mimic mink.
How to Apply Magnetic Lashes
Magnetic lashes are effortless to apply, even if you have never worn magnetic lashes before. Here is a step-by-step guide on how to apply your natural lashes quickly.
- This step is optional. Lightly coat your natural lashes with a coat of your regular mascara. This mascara application will help your lashes blend better with false lashes. Make sure it’s a very thin coat and wait for it to dry before proceeding to step two.
- Apply the magnetic eyeliner to the upper lash line in a thin line like you would apply regular liquid liner. Make sure that the line is thick enough to adhere to the magnetic lashes. You can also create a cute winged cat-eye at the corner for a dramatic look.
If you make a mistake, don’t fret. Use the SOO Clean! Makeup remover pen to precisely remove the oopsie. - Grab your lashes with a lash grab applicator and lay them over the magnetic liner. Adjust the lashes as needed to create even symmetry across the eye. Repeat the process on your other eye.
After you apply both lash bands, step back and take a look in the mirror. Do the lashes look even on both eyes? Adjust them as needed and, voila! You’ve got a gorgeous, natural lash set!
