How to choose eyelash rollers

In the modern beauty industry, naturalness, as well as simplicity and lightness of makeup, occupy a special place. Girls want to spend less time on daily makeup, so they often choose lamination. This procedure helps make eyebrows and eyelashes beautiful and well-groomed. Before lamination, you need to figure out how to choose the right rollers for your skin type, eyebrow shape and other parameters.

What are lamination rollers

Lamination rollers – These are pad-like materials that help in performing the procedure. Mainly rollers or curlers are used for:

• minimizing the risk of mechanical injury to hairs;

• quickly and easily give eyebrows and eyelashes a beautiful curve and shape;

• protection of the mucous membrane of the eye from contact with the laminating composition.

Classification of eyelash rollers

The main question faced by lamination masters and their clients – what kind of lash rollers are available? They are classified depending on size, material, shape. According to the sizes lamination rollers are:

• S (small) – up to 5 mm;

• M (medium) – from 6 to 10 mm;

• L (large) – from 10 to 15 mm.

There are also models in sizes XL and XXL, but they are less popular and less commonly used. In addition, lamination curlers differ in shape, which can affect the curve of the eyebrows and eyelashes. Depending on the shape, rollers can be of several types:

1. Flat. They increase volume near the roots and provide a noticeable lifting effect.
2. With a convexity. Recommended for those who want to get a rounded curl.

Eyelash rollers are made of silicone and rubber, but modern specialists more often use silicone models. Silicone products are more flexible and lightweight, making them easier to work with.

Advantages of silicone rollers

Quality materials and their choice influence the final result. Silicone-based rollers are used more often for several reasons:

• Reusable. Silicone products can be washed and disinfected, so if used carefully they will last a long time.
• Hypoallergenic. Silicone eyelash rollers do not irritate the skin and rarely cause allergies.
• Have increased flexibility. Thanks to the structure of silicone, it is easy to work with such overlays, because they bend well and take the desired shape.
• Lungs. They are light in weight and are practically not felt on the eyes and do not cause discomfort.

Some tools have additional relief on the surface, which helps to correctly lay out the eyelashes and get a unique effect.

What is the difference between rollers

One of the popular questions among leshmakers and clients – What is the difference between the M1 and M rollers? They are identical in size, but can affect the curve of the eyebrows and eyelashes. M1 curlers have a flat shape, so they create smooth curves and are suitable for eyelids without complications. M rollers are more rounded in shape and create a sharper curl. They are recommended for clients who:

• eyelashes grow straight or are lowered slightly;

• drooping eyelid;

• deep seating of the eyelid.

Lamination rollers also differ in the type of fixation. Some of them already have a sticky layer with which the product is fixed to the eyelid. Other models require the use of additional special glue. Another important difference between these materials – type of surface, which can be:

1. Smooth. Used to create a neat and smooth curl, thanks to the even distribution of hairs on the surface.
2. Ribbed. The protrusions on the surface provide better fixation of hairs, creating a stable curl.
3. Texturous. They may have a wavy or pimply structure, which helps create a unique shape.

Before purchasing lamination rollers, it is important to take into account all their differences, since the effect obtained from the procedure depends on this.

What kind of eyelash rollers are available: recommendations for choosing

The main criterion that is important when selecting materials – desired effect. For natural volume, rollers with a soft curve are recommended, and for pronounced volume – Products with a cool curl. In addition, when choosing lamination rollers, there are several factors to consider:

• Understand product modifications. It is important to know how the S1 and S rollers differ, because these products for eyebrows affect the result obtained. S1 are recommended for short eyelashes, they will help create an open look with a slight curl. S creates a pronounced curl and increases its curl.
• Consider your skin type. For sensitive skin, choose rollers made from safe, hypoallergenic materials such as silicone.
• Pay attention to the shape of the eyebrows. For straight lines, it is best to choose models with a soft bend, for curved ones, rollers with a pronounced bend are recommended, and for a high arch – options with a smooth bend.
