So, which one is actually more popular among brides when it comes to this important bridal makeup: eyelash extensions or false lashes???

[The Answer] Recently, eyelash extensions are more popular...♡

The answer is eyelash extensions!

Of course, there are those who choose false lashes or just use mascara, but recently, the number of eyelash extension fans is rapidly increasing.

However, it's natural that what works for one person may not work for another.

Therefore, this time, we will introduce the pros and cons of both eyelash extensions and false lashes＊

Recently Popular ♡ [Eyelash Extensions] Advantages ☆

The biggest advantage of [eyelash extensions] is that no matter how much you cry, your lashes won’t fall off, and you won't end up with panda eyes♡

While it’s possible that one or two lashes may fall out, you can still maintain a beautiful eye makeup look by brushing away any fallen ones.

In addition, the number of eyelash extensions can be adjusted, allowing you to customize your look from natural to bold, which is also a charm♡

Recently, colored mascaras have also become trendy, and some stylish brides match their eye makeup to the color of their dress＊

Recently Popular ♡ [Eyelash Extensions] Disadvantages ...！

While eyelash extensions are convenient and beautiful, they also have their disadvantages. One of them is that maintenance can be quite challenging＊

For example, you cannot use oil-based cleansers, and rubbing your eyes is also a no-go...!

If you are not used to them, you might experience loss before the wedding day.

Additionally, those with sensitive skin may experience allergic reactions, so caution is advised. It’s recommended to try eyelash extensions about 2 to 3 months prior to the wedding, rather than right before.

The cost (around 10,000 yen) being higher than false lashes can also be a downside.

Next, let's take a look at the advantages and disadvantages of [false lashes], which are still quite popular, though not as much as eyelash extensions.

Still Popular ♡ [False Lashes] Advantages ☆

The advantage of [false lashes] is that there is an incredibly wide variety to choose from!

There are different types, such as those with longer outer corners, those with fine individual strands for a natural look, and those that make your eyes pop.

You can try on different types at home to see which suits you best, which is a nice perk♡

Additionally, false lashes are generally more affordable compared to eyelash extensions.

Since eyelash extensions tend to fall out after 3 to 4 weeks, they incur ongoing maintenance costs, but false lashes are budget-friendly＊

Still Popular ♡ [False Lashes] Disadvantages ...！

The disadvantages of [false lashes] are something every bride is probably already aware of...

Yes, if you cry during the wedding, there's a chance the false lashes may come off, resulting in a ruined makeup look…! This is a common tragedy.

Also, because you may not wear false lashes regularly, it’s possible to end up looking over-the-top or overly dramatic, which can be surprising for guests...

It’s wise to avoid applying so many false lashes that they seem unnatural♡

[Conclusion] Overall, eyelash extensions have the edge♡ But everyone's preferences are different!

What did you think??? We presented the [eyelash extensions vs false lashes] dilemma that every bride is likely to consider at least once.

In general, eyelash extensions have recently gained more popularity, but both have their pros and cons.

Preferences and suitability vary from person to person, so why not try both at least once before making a decision?♡
