Let’s delve into the unique features and benefits of both Faux Mink and Laser Faux Mink Lashes to find out the different between two types with Charmlash!
I. Faux Mink lashes
When it comes to mink lashes, there are two main types: real mink and faux mink lashes.
1. What are Real mink lashes?
Mink lashes are made of fur from a mink, which are comfortable, lightweight to wear. Because they use raw animal fibers, mink lashes have sparked controversy among animal-friendly cosmetic enthusiasts.
Despite the controversy, mink lashes are considered as luxury, high-end products because they are too expensive for most people.

2. What are Faux mink lashes?
Faux Mink’ lashes are crafted from PBT fibers (polybutylene terephthalate), and considered as a premium lash material. These lashes are an ideal choice among most eyelash extension artists!
3. Why have Faux mink lashes become so popular?
Now, Let Charmlash tell you the reason why!
It’s because they can remarkably mimic the feel and lightweight nature of the real mink lashes, offering superior durability and longevity. Plus, they are completely cruelty-free, making them a high-quality, ethical alternative and a better choice for anyone with allergies due to its low risk of causing allergic reactions.
Real mink lashes are quite expensive. Faux mink, however, is more affordable, so you can buy several pairs at once. This makes faux mink a great option for those on a budget.

II. Laser faux mink Lashes
1. Our Inspiration
Many customers face difficulties with eyelash retention, often experiencing frustration when extensions do not stay as long as they would like. Typically, adhesive is crucial for retention, but even top-quality products can be hindered by the smooth, non-porous surface of standard synthetic lashes. This can result in a less secure attachment, causing lashes to shed prematurely and necessitating frequent touch-ups.
That’s why Charmlash have developed the new innovative “Laser Faux Mink Lashes”, solving the problem, ensuring long-lasting wear, perfect for everyday use. Much like the design of durable shoe soles to provide better grip and avoid slipping!
2. Introducing Laser Faux Mink Lashes: A game-changer in the lash industry
Laser Faux Mink Lashes are crafted using superior Korean PBT fiber and manufactured with laser-cut technology – the newest and innovative lash extension product on the market. This allows creation, increasing retention by 30% and significantly reducing “twisting/turning”. They are also more flexible at the base, allowing for better adherence and bending with natural lashes.
This attribute stems from their outstanding heat and chemical resistance, which is attained through specialized high-temperature drying methods in production. Laser treatment further enhances their adhesion and retention capabilities during the lash extension process, ensuring a durable and secure application that surpasses traditional methods.
3. The similarity between Faux Mink lashes vs Laser Faux Mink Lashes
Laser Faux Mink Lashes possess all the key features of the traditional Faux Mink Lashes, and can also customize these lashes to any length, curls or thickness. You can also apply different lash maps as you wish, without affecting fan-making techniques.
4. The difference between Faux Mink lashes vs Laser Faux Mink Lashes
So, what sets Laser Faux Mink Lashes apart from regular lashes? Let’s delve into the differences with us!
360-degree indentation
Faux Mink Laser Lashes feature a 360-degree laser-cut pattern. Laser technology creates tiny indentations for adhesive that go into these indentations, instead of just covering the surface like Faux Mink eyelash extensions. Hence, stronger and longer adhesion between lash extensions and natural lashes.
Laser Faux Mink Lashes, with their laser-treated roots, offer more surface area for glue adhesion compared to the smooth surface of natural lash extensions. This results in enhanced bonding strength between the lash extensions and natural lashes. The microscopic indentations create a distinctive textured surface, making them superior to the smooth surface of regular lashes.
The length of laser cut lashes is approximately 2mm
The length of lashes dipping glue is approximately 2mm, long enough to significantly improve bonding surface area, resulting in stronger and longer-lasting lash extensions, while still being short enough to maintain the natural look and flexibility of the lashes.
30% longer retention than regular
Laser Faux Mink lashes offer 30% longer lasting compared to Faux Mink lashes due to the microscopic indentations that provide more bonding surface, hence stronger and longer adhesion between the Laser Faux Mink Lashes and natural lashes.
The glue is applied into the micro-indentations created by advanced laser technology. These indentations hold more glue and increase the lash surface area, leading to superior retention. The laser-cut technology also ensures that the lashes maintain their curvature exceptionally well, staying true to their shape throughout their wear.
Work well with all adhesives
Unlike the smooth surface of Faux Mink lashes, which can lead to uneven glue distribution, Laser technology creates precise laser cuts on the surface of Laser Faux Mink lashes. These micro-indentations help to evenly distribute adhesive on the eyelash extension, preventing the forming of glue droplets at the base of the lash extension. lash artists can choose any adhesive regardless of its viscosity.
Quicker and easier lash application
Laser technology employs microscopic indentations to generate a textured surface on the lashes. This texturing enhances the adherence of Laser Faux Mink lash extensions to natural lashes, providing an instant bond.
To compare, Faux Mink lashes typically have a smooth surface, which may lead to less secure bonding and potential sliding during application. This difference means that laser lashes offer quicker and more straightforward application for lash artists, regardless of their skill level, ensuring precise and durable lash extensions compared to conventional synthetic lashes.
Prevent stickies
These indentations allow the adhesive to penetrate deeply and evenly, ensuring a clean and uniform distribution of glue. This prevents excess adhesive from accumulating on the lash surface and causing stickies, where neighboring lashes might stick together.
In contrast, regular false lashes like Faux Mink lashes often have a smooth surface, which can result in excess glue on the surface of the lashes and lead to stickiness between lashes during application.
Flexible attachment from any angles
Laser Faux Mink lashes feature a textured surface with tiny indentations all around, facilitating flexible attachment from various angles: top, bottom, and sides.
Softer and more natural outcome
Laser Faux Mink Lashes feel even more soft and natural than Faux Mink lashes. The reason for this is because with laser lash extensions, the adhesive is evenly distributed. This prevents excess glue from coating and hardening the natural lash.
It’s so much better when compared with Faux Mink lashes!
