Eyelash extensions are all the craze now, and for good reason! They are a real time saver and they can glam up any occasion. But before you jump into the eyelash extensions bandwagon, we want you to be prepared for what you’re getting into, so we’ve asked our clients what they find are the pros and cons of having eyelash extensions and here they are:

PROS

·       Makes you look younger, more awake, more put together

·       Gives the appearance as if you’re wearing very good natural makeup

·       Gives incredible self-confidence

·       Saves you a lot of time in the mornings, otherwise spent putting on makeup every day

·       Relaxing lash sessions and naps

·       Last as long as you want them to with proper maintenance

·       Make you look incredible at stressful and sweaty times such as the gym, beach, cycling, running, playing tennis, etc.

·       Forces you to be more mindful about touching your eyes and face, and therefore, more careful with this sensitive area

·       Personalized to match and flatter your face and eye shape

CONS

·       Some people find them a little high-maintenance, especially at the beginning

·       Most of the time they are quite expensive to add into your weekly/monthly routine -nevertheless, definitely worth it!

·       Could weaken or give the appearance of thinner natural lashes

·       When done at a bad place, your natural ones can fall off prematurely

·       Can cause allergies and other serious eye illnesses

·       Some people have mentioned that when they don’t have them on, some of their colleagues have asked them if they are ill!

·       Cannot be removed by yourself. After a month, they start to look a little weird as they fall off randomly and only a couple stay on, so you’ll have the urge to pull them off yourself, which you can’t, so you’ll have to either wait it out or go get them removed professionally

·       IS HIGHLY ADDICTIVE!

So if you’re looking for a lazy makeup solution or beauty routine that will save you time and money in the long run, plus give you the ego-boost you need to take on the world, then eyelash extensions are the best investment you can do for your appearance and self-confidence.
