Has nature been kind to you and not given you long and prominent eyelashes? No need to despair! Nowadays, we know ways to conjure up endlessly long, thick lashes in no time. And you can forget about the classic mascara! Read on.
Permanent lashes
Did you know that you can have eyelash extensions but no one needs to know? I mean, of course people will notice that you have a striking and mesmerizing look, but they won't figure out that the lashes aren't yours. That's one of the biggest advantages of permanent eyelash extensions - they look natural.
- What is the main advantage of permanent lashes?
When applied "lash to lash" and when using volume fans, you can achieve great results without making your lashes look too artificial. What is important is not only the quality of the soft and light lashes, but also the skilled hands of the lash artist who will apply them.
And one more advantage of permanent lashes that I must not forget - you will be irresistible with them in any situation! Unlike traditional makeup, eyelash extensions look divine even in the morning or when you just got out of the pool. No more mascara smudges and dark smudgy circles under the eyes, just the sexy look of a goddess!
- Is the application of false eyelashes worth it?
It is necessary to take into account that you cannot do eyelash extensions at home and for the first application in a beauty salon you will pay approximately 1 500 - 2 000 CZK. For a refill you will pay approximately 750 - 900 CZK ( the prices are approximate, it depends on the beauty salon).
For this price, however, you will not only get the long and thick eyelashes you have always dreamed of, but you will also not have to worry about anything for at least 3 weeks. All you have to do is briefly brush your false eyelashes every day, clean them with a cleansing foam and have them replenished in time at the salon.

- What to look out for?
Even with permanent lashes, less is more. So don't be tempted by the overly voluminous lashes flaunted by internet celebrities and advertising posters and opt for a natural look instead.Your eyes won't be hidden under a blanket of lashes, but instead will stand out beautifully and people around you will only admire or silently envy you.
It is also worth entrusting the application to a proven and experienced lash artist whose work you can see on the website, Facebook or Instagram.

Glue-on eyelashes
A less permanent, but still very effective alternative thanks to which you can have eyelashes that reach the sky whenever you want - are glue-on lashes. Their advantage is not only the lower price, which is in the hundreds of crowns, but also easier application, which with a little practice and patience you can manage even in home conditions.

How are glue-on lashes better than permanent lashes?
There are many types of eyelashes on the market and you can find them in regular drugstores. It can be a strip of lashes for the entire eyelid, or just individual clusters of lashes to highlight the lashes in the outer corner of the eye. Special occasion eyelashes can even be coloured, decorated with glitter or bird feathers.
If you choose the more expensive higher quality glue-on eyelashes, there is a good chance that they will not only look better than the cheap ones but they will also last for several reuses.
As for attaching them to your eye, there are a few options. You can choose classic adhesive lashes, which stick to the lid with glue, then there are magnetic lashes and lashes that stick to the drawn magnetic eyeliner.
- What is the biggest disadvantage of glue-on eyelashes?
Unlike permanent eyelashes, the durability of false eyelashes cannot be relied upon too much. In perfect condition, glued-on lashes usually last only a few hours and are therefore more suitable for occasional changes in appearance or for highlighting the eyes.
- What to watch out for?
Pay enough attention to the correct application. The glue should never get into your eye and the false eyelashes should be glued on symmetrically. From time to time, check yourself in the mirror to see if any corners have come unstuck. This would inadvertently give away your little secret in public, and you don't want that!
We can all have long eyelashes, and there's no need to be ashamed of the fact that we sometimes add something artificial to our perfect look. The important thing is to feel beautiful and ourselves.
