The best magnetic lashes of 2022: Glamnetic, more

We’ve been through it before — the excitement of buying a new voluminous lash-promising set of falsies only for the glue to be messy and the extra flush to fall off your eye lids.

As infomercials would say, “say goodbye to that!” with a pair of the best magnetic lashes. With no glue and no stress about your glam look succumbing to end-of-the-night mishaps, they’re avidly followed by many beauty lovers.

So, why not snag a pair for your next full-face of makeup? They pair well with your best full-coverage foundation, too, and of course, some of the best shimmery eyeshadow palettes we rounded up.

“My favorite kind of lash on clients is a cat eyelash — the lash starts off shorter in the inner corner and then flares out long on the outer corner,” Natalie Dresher, an eight-year bridal and special event makeup artist, told the New York Post. “A really popular look — and a personal favorite on myself — is a half lash, where the lashes start on the outer half of the eye- really elongating the eye.”

How to apply lashes safely (plus, tips to know)

Above all else, never use lashes if you experience any type of discomfort or pain while using them or after they’re off, Dresher notes.

“Personal lashes can be reused a handful of times depending on how well you’re cleaning and maintaining them,” she adds. “I personally opt for mid-priced lashes for myself so I can use a new pair each time or every other time.”

For magnetic lashes specifically, you’ll want to use a special magnetic eyeliner, just as you would apply glue to non-magnetic ones. Some sets below include the eyeliner, but you can pick one up on Amazon if you’re just buying the lashes (or, want to stock up).

The golden question: when do I apply mascara? Dresher advises applying mascara before tacking on your falsies, as mascara can ruin the integrity of the lash when applied afterward, as well as ridding yourself of the fluffy look a lash typically achieves. 

For cleaning your false eyelashes, use oil-free micellar water on a cotton swab and gently glide up from the band.
