1. Velvet Mink Lashes vs. Real Mink Lashes: The Origin

When it comes to mink lashes, there are two main types: real mink and faux mink lashes. With the growing concern for animal welfare, Velvet Mink Eyelash extensions have  become an increasingly popular alternative instead of real mink lashes.

What are Real Mink Lashes?

Real mink eyelashes are made from the fur of minks – a type of weasel. However, many people object to the use of animal products in beauty treatments. It’s because animals are kept in small cages for commercial purposes, rather than living their lives in a natural environment.

What are Velvet Mink lashes?

On the other hand, Velvet Mink lashes are made from PBT fiber! This is a synthetic material that closely resembles the texture and appearance of natural lashes. They are cruelty-free and vegan-friendly, which can reduce the risk of allergic reactions or animal cruelty. Velvet Mink Lashes are made to mimic real mink lashes. They can be easily distinguished by their taper, finish, and other characteristics like softness, thickness, and density.

II. Laser Velvet 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 Velvet 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 Velvet Mink Lashes: A game changer in the lash industry

Laser Velvet 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 Velvet Mink Lashes vs Laser Velvet Mink Lashes

Laser Velvet Mink Lashes Lash Extensions possess all the key features of the traditional Velvet 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 Velvet Mink Lashes vs Laser Velvet Mink Lashes

So, what sets Laser Velvet Mink Lashes apart from regular lashes? Let’s delve into the differences between us!

Velvet Mink lashes and Laser Velvet Mink lashes - Charmlash

360-degree indentation

Laser Velvet Mink 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 Velvet Mink Eyelashes extensions. Hence, stronger and longer adhesion between lash extensions and natural lashes.

360-degree indentation

Laser Velvet 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 Velvet 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 Velvet Mink Lashes  and natural lashes.

30% longer retention

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 Velvet Mink Lash Extensions, which can lead to uneven glue distribution, Laser technology creates precise laser cuts on the surface of Laser Velvet Mink Eyelashes. 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.

Work well with all adhesive

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 Velvet Mink Lash Extensions to natural lashes, providing an instant bond.

Quicker and easier lash application

To compare, Velvet 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.

Prevent stickies

In contrast, regular false lashes like Velvet 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 Velvet Mink Lashes feature a textured surface with tiny indentations all around, facilitating flexible attachment from various angles: top, bottom, and sides.

Flexible lash attachment

Softer and more natural outcome

Laser Velvet Mink Lashes feel even more soft and natural than regular 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.

Softer and more natural than conventional lashes

It’s so much better when compared with Velvet Mink Lashes!
