Frequently Asked Questions

What are false lashes made of?

When false lashes hit the scene at the end of the 19th century, they were mainly made of human hair and mink fur. But today, as manufacturers embrace cruelty-free beauty practices, the vast majority of fake eyelashes are vegan. “[False lashes are] usually made from synthetic fiber, silk, or mink — which is less common now since it’s from an animal. You can find some made from human hair, too,” cosmetic chemist Ginger King explains. Synthetics aim to recreate the feel and effect of mink fur, human hair, or, in some cases, silk. If you’re curious about the composition of a set of false lashes or have known allergies to synthetic materials, it’s always best to read the product ingredients or request more information from the brand.

Are false lashes safe?

The short answer is yes. False lashes are safe (and fun) when you’re mindful about cleaning, application, frequency of use, and your skin’s allergies and sensitivities. King explains, “They are safe provided the assembly of the hair does not fall into the eyes, and the adhesive used does not cause an allergic reaction to the eyelids.” Check the ingredients of the lash adhesive or magnetic liner before applying it to your lid, and exercise caution when using applicator tools, like tweezers, near your eye. Many false lashes can be worn multiple times, but clean them before reusing them — especially if you added mascara the first time around. 

“If you’ve applied a little mascara to your lashes while you had your false lashes on, I like to use a clean spoolie dipped in micellar water and slowly comb the lashes out. Micellar water will help break down the mascara, ensuring every last bit of it is removed from your falsies,” says New York City-based makeup artist Meghan Nguy.

How we test and review products

We always enlist a range of testers for any review, but home products are another story. While some picks can be used across different spaces, many are created with specific consumers and their needs in mind. When reviewing home goods, we also take into account our testers’ experience. For instance, a vanity light may be backed by notable makeup artists across the nation, but if our testers find its lights too bright, we have to consider this when determining whether it is worthy of a recommendation.

For our review of the best false lashes, we enlisted the help of multiple editors, writers, and contributors — who all have different eye shapes, style preferences, and experience with false lashes. Testers considered factors including material and reusability when picking false lashes that best fit their needs.

Our staff and testers

A beauty product is a personal purchase. You might be searching for a face cream to address persistent dryness or a new nail product to add to your Sunday self-care routine; you may simply be browsing around for the latest launches to hit the hair market. No matter what you seek or your individual needs and concerns, Allure wants to ensure that you love anything we recommend in our stories. We believe that having a diverse team of writers and editors — in addition to the wide range of outside testers and industry experts we regularly call upon — is essential to reaching that goal.
