Eyelash extensions: mink, sable or silk?
Any girl can afford beautiful, long, thick and fluffy eyelashes. The secret of a bright and expressive view lies not in genetics or the use of expensive eye makeup from a well-known brand. It is enough to contact the beauty salon for eyelash extensions: the masters will offer mink, sable or silk. You can conduct a similar procedure yourself, at home. You will become the owner of such eyelashes, which previously did not even dare to dream.
Kinds
If you are going to contact the beauty salon to create a spectacular look or place an order in an online store, purchasing all the necessary tools and tools for such a procedure, you need to decide on the material. Each option has its own advantages, distinctive features and can be used in different situations. It is necessary to understand what material is better to prefer.
Many young ladies wonder whether the mink, sable or silk eyelashes are natural.
Do not be fooled by such names - all three types of eyelashes are made of synthetic fibers. They received their names, as they are very similar to sable, mink or silk fur.
Fur and natural fibers do not apply for a number of reasons:
- may cause allergies especially among those of the fair sex who are sensitive to the fur of various animals;
- they can not give the desired rounded shape to create a natural look with hair extensions;
- natural fur may crumble, and its particles, falling on the mucous membrane of the eyes, will lead to irritation and various inflammatory processes.
Knowing such features and differences of natural fibers and fur, the experts developed synthetic hairs that are hypoallergenic and do not cause an allergic reaction.
Therefore, a woman can afford the extension procedure even with very sensitive skin.
Features mink building
Mink eyelashes were so named because they are very similar in appearance to mink wool. Mink building is very popular among the fair sex. Its main features are as follows:
- During the manufacture of mink hairs Special ingredients are added to the main ingredient that create a matte effect.
- Such material differs in a significant period of wear, it is not afraid of water ingress, temperature changes. You can lead a familiar life: go to the pool or sauna, go to the beach, without worrying about the fact that after such an event you will have to immediately contact the master for correction.
- These hairs are more thick than other species, so girls with their own thick eyelashes can afford this extension.
- Mink eyelashes make it look like you just made up your eyes, so they are preferable for girls who have rather voluminous own hairs.
- Their main difference - deep black color. If the natural hairs are of a lighter shade, they need to be dyed black in order for the eyelashes to look natural after the procedure.
It is not recommended to carry out such a build-up for girls who have thin and weak eyelashes, since under the heavy weight of the “mink” their own hairs will be subjected to a serious load and can quickly fall out.
If you are planning to build up by the mink, then be prepared for the whole procedure to take approximately two or two and a half hours.
Sable look
Eyelashes "sable" will help the representative of the fair sex to transform their eyes, adding depth and expressiveness. After applying them, the impression is made up of painted eyelashes, so that you automatically avoid the need to constantly tint hairs. Eye makeup will be in perfect condition for the whole day.
If you strive to get the most voluminous eyelashes, then stop your choice on this capacity. They are perfect for evening makeup. Your look will be bright, spectacular and expressive, so that you definitely will not go unnoticed at a party or gala event.
Experts note that the eyelashes "sable" can not bend or break.
They will serve much longer than other analogues. This is due to the special structure of the material from which such hairs are made.
Sable hairs are of two types: ultra-soft or hard version. This build-up may not suit every woman, as it has a very bright (and even catchy) effect. Therefore, some experts recommend using them only for special occasions, after which the hairs should be removed.
Ultra soft sable eyelashes are notable for their increased comfort, they are soft and pleasant to the touch, imitating natural sable fur well.
Silk
Silk eyelashes are considered the thinnest. They are used for elastic extension. It will take a long time to build up this type of hair, but you will be very pleased with the result. Silk allows you to get the most natural expressive look.
