Eyelash extensions. Which method to choose?

Every woman dreams of incredibly long and perfectly defined eyelashes. There are few lucky ones who can enjoy natural long and full lashes. The rest of women must turn to artificial methods. The choice of method depends on the effects that we desire to achieve. Women often go for eyelash extensions but there are some other solutions.

Eyelash extensions. Which method to chooseYou can choose between at least several ways to achieve an ideal length and thickness of your eyelashes. Semi permanent eyelashes have been the most popular so far. Now, it has proved to be an imperfect method. Currently, most women decide on eyelash and eyebrow serums (Nanolash serum is the most popular). They provide the best and longest lasting effects.

The easiest way to pick a perfect method is answering a few simple questions connected with the current condition of your eyelashes, your eyelash care routine and reasons why you want to make them longer.

  • What is the current state of your lashes?
    (short/long, sparse/full, thin/thick, weak/healthy, etc.)
  • What is the problem?
    (they fall out, they are brittle and stiff, etc.)
  • What are some additional obstacles?
    (being prone to allergies, poor budget, etc.)
  • What effect do you have in mind?
    (one-off eyelash extension, temporary, permanent, etc.)

If you know the answers to these questions, we can find the best solution easily. It is observed that using false eyelashes is not always chosen. Women usually desire long-lasting effect (question 4) of stronger, longer and thicker lashes that are now weak, thin and short (question 1). They are prone to falling out very often (questions 2) and we must get rid of this problem with little money (question 3). Being prone to allergies and sensitive eye area are common as well (question 3).

Eyelash extensions have lots of downsides.

Learn about them before you decide on this method!

HIGH COSTS

If we want to improve our looks without spending lots of money, choosing eyelash extensions isn’t a good idea. An average cost of one eyelash extension equals the price of a few mascaras. It gets cheaper if we use materials of the poorest quality. It is more expensive if we go for quality. The most costly false eyelashes are silk and mink eyelashes. If we also pick the most expensive method – volume eyelash extensions – we will have to pay huge amounts of money. But it’s not the end of spending money. Eyelash extensions consist of at least several treatments. False eyelashes are applied during the first eyelash extension treatment, therefore it is the most expensive. Then, you must fill them in regularly. Every beautician’s appointment entails some costs. To sum up, the price of eyelash extensions is very high.

On the other hand…
Regular price of one bottle of Nanolash eyelash and eyebrow serum is very low, even with the shipment. If you buy more bottles at a time, you can get Nanolash at a cheaper price. Using Nanolash eyelash and eyebrow serum will cost us less daily than a good coffee. One bottle holds out more or less six months of regular use.

TIME-CONSUMING

Most women have very little time for beautifying treatments. We devote even over an hour to applying make-up. Obviously, it depends on how strong and precise we want it to be. Usually, little time is left to visit an aesthetician. Eyelash extensions are one of the most time-consuming treatments. Putting on false eyelashes lasts more or less 2-3 hours. The more time-consuming method you choose, the longer it will take. Semi permanent eyelashes are the quickest. The more advanced the technology, the longer the treatment. Filling in takes up more time. Few women can afford to lose so much time.

On the other hand…
The application of Nanolash eyelash and eyebrow serum together with make-up removal takes up less than 60 seconds. The precise applicator makes it easier and quicker. The important thing is to remember about applying Nanolash serum regularly. Anyway, it is far easier to find a minute every day than a few hours during one day.

WEAK EYELASHES

Eyelash extensions provide spectacular effects. We must keep in mind though that a very dramatic effect overburdens our natural eyelashes to a larger extent. Most of all, it is caused by the character of the treatment. Eyelash extension treatment consists in attaching false eyelashes with a special synthetic glue. The falsies can be made of synthetic or animal-derived materials but it doesn’t matter. Why? Regardless of the material, it is additional weight for our natural lashes. As a consequence, the bulbs are weaker and poorly anchored in hair follicles. When eyelash extensions become a steady element of our beauty routine, the risk increases. After some time, the condition of natural lashes may largely worsen.

On the other hand…
Nanolash eyelash and eyebrow serum strengthens and improves the condition of natural eyelashes. The formula is quite liquid and gets quickly absorbed. You apply Nanolash to the skin at the roots of lashes, therefore they are not weighed down with the product. If we choose a serum instead of eyelash extensions, we nourish our natural eyelashes instead of making them weaker.

IRRITATION

Irritation of eyes or skin is a common problem connected with eyelash extensions. We must be aware that consequences of putting on false eyelashes can be dangerous to our health. Eye area is a very sensitive part of our face. The irritation is usually caused by an allergic reaction to synthetic materials (mostly glues) or animal-derived materials (e.g. mink eyelashes). Allergic reactions may ease off quickly or last until the moment you take fake lashes off. False eyelashes and synthetic adhesive can cause redness, rush, watery eyes; in extreme cases – eyesight problems or other ailments.

On the other hand…
Nanolash formula has been based on natural – mostly plant – ingredients. The composition is simple so there are fewer substances that would be unsuitable for us. Nanolash eyelash and eyebrow serum has undergone numerous tests. The results have shown that it is a full natural option, better than eyelash extensions.

    When it comes to lash extensions, it was very irritating that I had to take such special care of my lashes and be extra cautious at every step. Yes, it’s true that I didn’t have to apply mascara on a daily basis but instead I had to look after it even during sleep! Therefore, I gave it up soon, now I am tempted by this serum 😀

    I have very unpeasant experience with another serum so I was hesitating for a while whether to try out another product of this type. I found many positive reviews on nanolash, people say that it’s exceptionally mild and suitable for allergy sufferers, so I decided to give it a try! I must admintt, it reallu turned out to be very gentle and yet, it increased the length of my lashes significantly! I wasn’t expecting such outcome! However, when it comes to lash etensions – I’d never do it. I just dont like the way the look, it’s so fake-looking;/
