You won’t offend someone wearing acrylic eyelash extensions if you point out the fact that they are fake. The Betty Boop look is what they are going for! Most beauty accessories like fake nails and eyelashes are made to look real and natural. Acrylic eyelash extensions on the other hand, are not.
When you wear acrylic or synthetic eyelash extensions it is to make a bold statement. They are meant to make your eyes look extraordinary. You can even find a whole class of acrylic eyelash extensions for Halloween that are glittered and made of different colors. Still, acrylic eyelash extensions don’t have to look cartoonish – they can actually make you look glamorous and chic.
There are three main categories of eyelash extensions. They come in mink (or synthetic mink), silk (or synthetic silk), and acrylic, which are totally synthetic. You can even find human eyelash extensions but those, like true mink and silk are at the higher end of the cost spectrum.
One of the pluses to acrylic eyelash extensions is that they are the strongest. You can keep them on for a month without having to change them and mascara is unnecessary when wearing them. You’ll also spend less money for acrylic eyelash extensions than you will for the others.
If you want to have people saying, ‘I remember seeing you that one time at that one thing…’ after you unveil your stunning smoky eyes at a gala event, try using acrylic eyelash extensions to really give your eyes some zing – here are 10 of the best around!
1. Create Your Own Volume Acrylic Eyelash Extension:
Volume Lash Extensions 2D 4D 5D 6D~10D Cluster Lashes D Curl 0.07mm 16mm Knot Free Individual Eyelashes 7D 8D Professional Flare Lashes
Perhaps the biggest drawback to wearing acrylic eyelash extensions is that you typically sacrifice some comfort over fashion. Because they are thicker they tend to be heavier. You could end up looking like the sad clown at the end of a night of hard partying with your big heavy eyelashes sagging.
That’s why we picked the Volume Lash Extensions from Fadlash. These versatile lashes come in different volumes from 2-D to 6-D and sizes from 8 – 14mm so that you can mix and match until you get it exactly right for you. The extra .07mm curl gives you added drama.
Unlike acrylic lashes of old, these are made from fine synthetic fibers to feel more natural. They are soft so that they look more natural and you get a deeper curl at the end of each lash.
