In order to get the darker, more dramatic look that cannot be achieved with standard premium lash extensions, make sure that you apply more lashes as each lash is very thin and soft. They are made to resemble real mink lashes. However, real mink lashes can be difficult to manage. Real mink lashes cannot be exposed to water, as this will ruin the lashes. They also do not have a consistent curl and can break easily. Real mink lashes can also cost up to $600 for a pair/set.

Synthetic minks are perfect for special occasions and events and can be mixed with different sizes, i.e. 10, 11, 12 to achieve a feathered look at the ends. Or they can be mixed with flares and rapids for an even more dramatic look. Services for mink lashes cost more, as these may take more time to apply.
