When it comes to false lashes, there are so many options which can make it tricky to know which styles and types are going to suit you the best! Two really popular choices amongst our customer base are strip lashes and pre-cut lashes, each offer their own benefits.
Read on to find out our opinions on both lash types and how you can make the right choice for you.
Pre-Cut Lashes: Convenience and Precision
Pre-cut lashes are individual lash clusters that are pre-shaped and pre-glued for easy application. They are designed to be placed on the outer corners of the eyes, creating a cat-eye effect or adding emphasis to specific areas. Here are some advantages of using pre-cut lashes:
- Easy Application: Pre-cut lashes come in clusters, which makes the application process super simple. They eliminate the need for measuring, trimming and glueing individual lashes, making them perfect for beginners or those with limited time.
- Customisable Placement: With pre-cut lashes, you have the freedom to customise the placement according to your desired look. Whether you want a subtle cat-eye effect or a more dramatic appearance, you can place the clusters on your lash line according to the look you’re wanting to create.
- Targeted Emphasis: Pre-cut lashes allow you to enhance specific areas of your eyes, such as the outer corners, for a cat-eye effect. By placing the clusters in these areas, you can create a lifted and elongated look that accentuates your natural eye shape.
Strip Lashes: Versatility and Dramatic Impact
Strip lashes, as the name suggests, are full lash bands that cover the entire lash line. They are available in so many lengths, volumes, and styles, meaning you’ll always be able to find a lash that suits the look you’re going for. Here are some advantages of using strip lashes:
- Full Coverage: Strip lashes provide complete coverage along the entire lash line, giving you a full and voluminous appearance. They are perfect for those who desire a more dramatic and glamorous look, ideal for special occasions or when you want to make a statement.
- Variety of Styles: Strip lashes come in a wide range of styles, from natural-looking to bold and dramatic. Whether you prefer a subtle enhancement or a show-stopping effect, you can find a strip lash style to suit your preferences and occasion.
- Reusability: Strip lashes can be reusable, making them a cost-effective option. With proper care and maintenance, you can wear the same strip lashes multiple times, making them a great long-term investment.
Choosing between pre-cut lashes and strip lashes really comes down to your personal preference. Pre-cut lashes are great for easy application and customisable placement, allowing you to emphasise specific areas to suit your look. On the other hand, strip lashes provide versatility, full coverage and a range of styles for various occasions.
