Want amazing lashes without the mess of glue or spending forever in front of the mirror? Magnetic lashes and self-adhesive lashes are two super easy ways to get the look you love. Both are quick, modern, and beginner-friendly—but which one should you choose?
Let’s look at what they are, the pros and cons, and how to pick the right one for you.
✨ Magnetic Lashes
Our magnetic lashes don’t need magnetic eyeliner like the old ones did. Instead, they come in two strips with tiny magnets—one goes above your lashes, one goes below. You use a small applicator to hold them in place, then they “click” together around your natural lashes.
How to use:
-
Take the two lash strips apart.
-
Put them in the applicator (red mark = top, white mark = bottom).
-
Press gently until the magnets lock together.
Pros:
-
Easy to use – No sticky glue.
-
Reusable – Can last many wears if you take care of them.
-
Good for sensitive eyes – No harsh adhesive.
-
Strong hold – Stay in place all day.
Cons:
-
Need the special applicator.
-
Might take a few tries to get perfect.
-
Can feel a bit heavier if they have many magnets.
💡 Tip: Start with a lighter style if it’s your first time.
💕 Self-Adhesive Lashes
Self-adhesive lashes have a strip of glue already on them. Just take them out of the box, place them above your natural lashes, and you’re ready to go.
Pros:
-
Super fast – On in seconds.
-
No extra tools – No eyeliner or glue needed.
-
Lightweight – Comfortable all day.
-
Beginner-friendly – Great for first-timers.
Cons:
-
Not as long-lasting—usually 5–7 wears.
-
Adhesive can weaken with humidity.
-
May lift if you have oily or sweaty eyelids.
💡 Tip: If the strip loses stickiness, add a thin layer of regular lash glue.
