    Mink lashes are rapidly becoming the most popular luxury beauty product. Once upon a time they were only worn by the rich and famous, but with the surge of makeup tutorials and beauty gurus they are now accessible to us common folk. The difference between artificial and mink lashes is the quality. There’s a huge difference.

    Mink is 100% natural fur, so it comes with a natural shine, is super compact and flexible, provides feather like look, can be curled like real man scalp, and can be worn up to 25 times. Mink

    eyelashes are believed a premium top quality product in comparison to man-made ones (source). Needless to say with the good comes the bad, and there is a lttle bit of controversy surrounding these lashes-you know, besides the typical “are falsies bad for my hard-earned natural lashes?” controversy.

    So what’s the offer? Are they worth it? Let’s have a look at the pros and cons.

    THE PROFESSIONALS of Mink Lashes:

    Let’s start out with the professionals. The clear reason- they look amazing. They can be wispy, fluffy, and look like your real lashes. False lashes made from mink can be worn multiple times, and if you opt for mink extensions they can last so long as per month before requiring a touch up.

    The Cons of Mink Lashes:

    With great lashes comes great responsibility, and oh honey, are mink lashes a great responsibility.

    Mink lash extensions don’t hold a curl so they need to be permed professionally, and then maintained at home. And not only are the extensions high maintenance- they are also very costly. These bad kids will cost you about $300- $500 plus the price of touch ups. They will last about a month before naturally shedding.

    A couple of wrong lashes created from mink will set you back $30- $50 per match (and from experience creation them, I can let you know that they’re pretty pricey on the factory’s end, too). $30-$50 is really pricey for just one couple of lashes, but considering you can wear them about 25 times, they might be worthy of the investment.

    Are Mink Lashes Cruelty-Free?

    And today for the elephant in the room…

    Any product made by making use of our animals should be examined for possible cruelty. Mink (and hair in general) has had a long history of controversy. Some companies declare that their mink lashes are “cruelty free” because the hair used to make them is from brushing the pet, as opposed to getting rid of it, but even then your process can still be questionable.

    A press liaison from PETA doesn’t believe in ‘cruelty free’ mink lashes, “these lashes are not PETA-approved. Regardless of whether the firms that sell mink eyelashes claim to get the hair by brushing live minks, those minks still suffer on farms and eventually will be wiped out for their hair. We encourage consumers to choose alternatives to any materials that derive from animals, ensuring that they aren’t contributing to a business that causes enduring.”

    So while even although pet animal isn’t being killed for its fur, the conditions they are surviving in aren’t the meaning of “cruelty free.” Mercy for Animals, an Ohio-based nonprofit, points out some of the cruel conditions that minks go through on mating farms, including self-mutilation, small cages, chronic stress, and afflicted wounds.

    Takeaways: The 411 on Mink Lashes

    So are mink lashes worth it? In my opinion.. probably not.

    Not merely are they incredibly high maintenance, they are also expensive and cause unnecessary injury to the animals used to make sure they are. I would say pass on these and go with faux mink, or synthetic lashes. There are tons of great options out there for both!

    So that as you all know, if you’re looking to better your natural lashes and miss the falsies, WINK is a superb natural (organic and natural!) option for maintaining your natural lashes long, strong and healthy.
