Review: Natural-looking eyelash extensions

23rd October 2019 by Anthia Chng 3 Min Read

https://expatliving.sg/best-natural-looking-eyelash-extensions-katong-east-coast-singapore/

Eyelash extensions are here to stay, but not all lash salons are alike. The aim is to get long, dark eyelashes that are still natural-looking. One beauty salon that we’ve tried and loved is The Lash Company. This homegrown salon specialises in single strand eyelash extensions, which look more natural and tend to be gentler on your natural lashes too. We sent two more lucky reviewers to the salon’s newest Katong outlet to try it out!

Eyelash extensions review #1

“Since my first attempt at sultry Kardashian-esque peepers for a wedding years back, I’ve only associated lash extensions with one thing: discomfort. Rushed through the process to make room for the next wave of conveyor-belt customers, I recall being shooed out of the little parlour with a hefty bill, barely dry lashes and stinging, teary eyes caused from the adhesive. Never again, I vowed.

But praise be; with the promise of some positive online reviews, I ventured east and found a beauty hub that has restored my faith. What really sets The Lash Company apart is their above-and-beyond approach to quality service and customer care before, during and after application. Upon arrival, my lash artist Nieda takes the time to ensure she understands my desired effect – I already have a healthy set of lashes, but I‘m after more length and curve to open up and frame my eyes without looking too dramatic. I opt for the lightweight Full Classic ($108) to give my existing lashes a boost in dimension and volume.

As I get comfy on the bed, what follows is the full TLC treatment. First, a deep cleansing lash spa to remove all residue and ensure a clean lash line. Next, a lip balm and a hydrating collagen eye mask are applied to my face, before Nieda gets started on my lashes. She’s delicate, precise and ever so gentle, to the point that I drift off to sleep. When I wake, Nieda takes me to the mirror to reveal her work – symmetrical and weightless lashes with the just enough curve and density. What’s more, I’m given a complimentary after-care kit, complete with sponge and a spoolie wand to clean and comb them. Safe to say, this seamless session will have me coming back for more!”

– Leanda Rathmell

Eyelash extensions review #2

“I’ve been a fan of The Lash Company since I first visited the salon in Kampong Bahru two years ago. Founder and owner Fiona is excellent at her craft. She knows exactly what her clients want and executes each set of eyelash extensions impeccably, without any discomfort. I remember falling asleep the few times she’s done my lashes!

While The Lash Company Katong opened in March this year, the space still looks fresh and clean with a welcoming vibe. In fact, I think I might even like this outlet a tad more because it’s more spacious. Wood furnishings decorate the homey interiors, completed with a generously sized “selfie” backdrop for that perfect “after” pic.

The Natural Classic ($88) used to be my go-to. For one thing, it’s affordable and quick (typically completed in an hour), and it gives me a natural lash effect suitable for everyday wear. This time, however, I left it to my lash artist Nieda to decide on the style that’ll suit me best. My only requirement? Nothing too dramatic. With those last words, I made myself comfortable and left her to work her magic on my eyes.

The length, curl and number of lashes used are chosen to suit my eye shape and natural lashes. This results in a customised set of flutters that flatter the features. We decided on the Full Classic ($108), which is a step up from what I was used to. There were a few embarrassing moments where I dozed off because Nieda was so gentle throughout the 90-minute session!

I love how my new lashes look, and have received a number of compliments on them. I can skip the mascara and eyeliner, which means more time to sleep in – always welcomed! Surprisingly, the lashes don’t feel heavy or weigh down on my natural lashes, either.”

We love hearing where our readers live so each month we ask residents to talk about their homes and neighbourhoods to help others who are living in Singapore make a better decision. 

Moving is always pretty stressful, so it’s good to get some recommendations first. 

This month Marina Matthews talks about living at Laguna Park condo off Marine Parade on the East Coast.

Check out the full article with Marina’s recommendations on our website (link in bio)

To tan or not to tan, that is the question! 

We all know that extended hours under the sun is no good for the skin, and there can be damage from both good old-fashioned sunbathing and indoor tanning. 

Check out our website where we look at why people want that bronzy glow plus the risks of tanning and how top aesthetic treatments from Amaris B Clinic can help rewind some of the damage like sun spots, hyperpigmentation, wrinkles and even cellulite

East Coast restaurants – specifically in Katong and Joo Chiat – have always been known for their good food. More recently though, the area has seen a rise in great cafes, specialty grocers, Italian cuisine and bakeries (with fresh sourdough!).

And if it’s not your neighbourhood, nothing is that far away in Singapore. You can walk along the coast or look at funky shophouses before or after and make it an outing!
