Recently, I had The Lashe eyelashes applied at The Nail Spa Pittsburgh. I had originally discovered them for the first time a few months ago, at the recommendation of a friend who is a makeup artist.
WHY MINK EYELASHES ARE BETTER
Celebrities choose mink eyelashes for a reason! Mink hair provides more length and thickness, and with less weight than human hair, with every strand (Journal of Mammalogy). Mink hair also will withstand more uses than synthetic eyelashes, with mink eyelashes reported to last up to 25 uses from a single set.
At the same time, mink eyelashes are also fine and lightweight enough to include multiple strands (hairs) per lash, which is why The Lashe strip lashes can be quite thick and dense without overloading the eye.
Furthermore, the mink eyelashes used by The Lashe are naturally shed hairs from delicately brushed animals, and the company affirms that no animals are harmed in the making of the lashes.
MY STYLE: ZOE
Zoe Strip Eyelashes are ultra natural and a touch whimsical. This particular style will add a subtle amount of length and volume. I consider these to be one of the more natural styles of the collection, but a style which still helps the eyes to stand out more than usual.
I’ve been wearing them for a few days now, and I’ve gotten a few compliments on my eyelashes. They are extremely durable with strip lash adhesive — they’re not going anywhere soon!
BOTTOM LINE
If you are interested in fake lashes, you must try The Lashe!
