If you are looking into eyelash extensions whether it be for an everyday look or special occasion, you want to know what the difference is between the options that are available to you. This way, you create the right look that you are going for. Here is the difference between the three main choices:

1. Mink: Mink eyelash extensions are made to mimic the appearance of real mink fur, but are actually made of synthetic materials. The benefit of these eyelash extensions is that they appear more natural than silk and have a matte finish. The other benefit is that they are thin and light, which is especially ideal if you are using these extensions for an everyday look. This material is also great for anyone looking for some volume for their otherwise thin lashes. 
2. Silk: Silk is very different from mink. While also made from synthetic materials, they are thicker and have a semi-gloss finish, which is more ideal for special occasions. This material also provides dramatic fullness that works especially great for a nighttime occasion. This is the most classic look that is popular for one time occasions. However, you can also use them for daily wear if you have natural long and full eyelashes that you just want to add some extra volume to. 
3. Real Fur: Finally, you could go for the real fur, which is the most natural look you can get. However, it is also going to be the most expensive option, but might be worth it if you want the real mink material and can afford it. These lashes are extremely soft, long, and thin for effective volume and natural appearance. The are great for any occasion, but you must be aware that if you have animal allergies, this option might not work out for you, especially since it's placed directly on eyes, which are one of the most sensitive parts of the body.

If you are unsure about what materials are best, it's best to go to a lash extensions service. They will be able to determine what the right material is along with the amount of volume added depending on what you are using the lash extensions for. Going to a lash extension service is especially great if you are looking for everyday lash extensions since you can get them filled and refilled here continually knowing that you are getting the right material and lash volume for you.
