Individual Lashes
Individual lashes, many claims, are harder to apply; some even get them applied by technicians as they find it too hard to do at home. Individual lashes are great for those with a bit of experience applying false lashes, and those who want a subtle look. They are ideal if you have naturally sparse or thin lashes, if you're trying to make them look a bit fuller. However, individual lashes are also brilliant for those with quite full natural lashes who want to add a feline flick at the outer corners with one or two long individual lashes. Ensure to use a good quality individual eyelash glue for the best results!

In terms of which is better, the individual lashes do give a more natural look compared to the strip lashes, however if the look you’re going for is not natural or subtle then strips are much better. For everyday use, strip lashes are sometimes too thick and fake looking if not applied properly, or if you've picked heavy fluttery lashes that don't really suit you. The benefit of both is that they are reusable if taken care of and removed carefully after use.
