Look Beautiful With Eyelash Extensions

By Sweet Nail

If you are one of those who don't want to look plain but don't have time to keep going back to Richmond nail salon, then this is the solution to your needs.

Visiting a Vancouver nail salon is a fun activity, especially for busy women. It is a good way to relax after a long weekend. If you want to feel pampered, then you can get a Vancouver manicure or pedicure.

I was one of those women. I have small eyes and the mascara was my best friend. I never left home without one and I thought that no other makeup can replace it. Until I discovered eyelash extensions, that is.

Because of the size of my eyes, I always had to wear makeup to make it look bigger. Mascara was one of the usual makeups I carry with me. It was the only make-up that was really made to emphasize eye lashes. When I discovered eyelash extensions, I finally realized that it is a messy make-up. It can get smudged and mess up the eye area. Also, if the mascara is not water-proof, it can easily be removed so a retouch is needed every now and then.

Not to mention the fact that it runs when it gets wet, which gives that gothic look. Some kinds of mascara can also be harmful to certain skin types. They contain ingredients which can irritate the skin and can have a terrible effect on the skin around the eyes.

Unlike mascara, eyelash extensions are hair attached to original lashes so they do not contain ingredients that may cause irritation. Some people who don't want to get the extensions can use false eyelashes but these too are inconvenient to wear. Eyelash extensions last longer whereas false eyelashes are temporary and might detach itself anytime. That's pretty embarrassing if you are attending a really cool party.

How did I discover eyelash extensions, you ask? It happened one time while I was having my nails done at the Vancouver nail salon. The lady next to me was talking about extensions and I got curious. I did not know how it was done at first so I made time to find out.

A week after, I went back to the salon for a Vancouver pedicure and I decided to ask for eyelash extensions. The process was pretty simple and will only take an hour or two depending on how thick your original lashes are.

They put use a special glue to attach the extensions to the base of the natural eyelash. By going it one last at a time, you can be assured that the eyelash extensions follow the natural pattern. After an hour, I looked at myself at the mirror and saw the effect it had on me. It was amazing. I liked it! I'm sure you will too. Visit a Vancouver nail salon near you and start looking good today!

Unlike traditional false lashes that are applied in strips and last a day before needing to be removed, eyelash extensions are glued to your natural eyelashes and last as long as that eyelash does, 6 to 8 weeks depending on care. Because they are bonded to each individual lash and not your skin, Vancouver eyelash extensions can last up to two months.
