Many of you may be wondering about the much talked about "magnetic false eyelashes.
There are two types of magnetic false eyelashes.
(1) Two lashes with magnets are clamped onto your own lashes from the top and bottom to hold them in place.
(2) Eyelids with magnetic tape or eyeliner mixed with magnetic powder applied to the eyelids and magnetic eyelashes attached
I feel that (2) is not much different in application from the type that is attached with glue, so I will compare the type that is sandwiched in (1).
The pinching type is characterized by quick application and leaves no glue or other residue after removal.
It can be used in many situations, such as going out to a convenience store on a day when you are not wearing any clothes, or when you have a sudden visitor, and you can easily put it on and cover up with a mask.
If your eyes are also swollen and itchy from hay fever, mascara and glue false eyelashes are also painful.
It will be useful for such a sensitive skin.
Even for those who enjoy wearing makeup in secret from family and friends, it can be removed in an instant and leaves no trace, so you can wear "fake eyeliner" even when you only have a short time to spare.
A thorough comparison of three types of "magnetic false eyelashes," including the popular brand "WASADO" and two other products, which are convenient if you have one.
WASADO No.1 in popularity

First up are the magnetic false eyelashes from the No. 1 popular brand WASADO.
The official website shows that there are a variety of colors and volumes, with regular prices ranging from 10,000 yen to 13,000 yen.
On sale, the price starts at about 6,000 yen.
This time, No. 14 was purchased at the regular price of 10,563 yen.


(1) Take out the false eyelash and split it into two pieces, upper and lower. (2) Peel off from the magnetic side because the hairs tend to fall out when you pull on the tips of the lashes.
The blue dot on the false eyelashes is the top and the white dot is the bottom. When the false eyelashes are placed on the wearing clip, the blue and white dots are aligned on the same side.
(3) Please reconfirm as it is easy to make a mistake. *Both curls face upward, the side with the dot is the outer corner of the eye.
(4) Place the top of the clip at the base of your own eyelashes and lightly pinch it to attract the magnetic force. Open the clip to complete the process.
My Thoughts
<especially good points
It does not come off even if I crack my eyelids violently or blow air with a hair dryer!
Quick and easy to install!
It is also light and comfortable to wear!
<Point of concern
The angle of the clip is deep and the width is short, so if you have large eyes, either the outer corner or the inner corner of the eye cannot be attached to the base of the eye.
<Request: Please provide clips with different angles.
Those with extremely small own eyelashes may have difficulty retaining them.
As a general comment, I really liked it! I thought the idea was revolutionary!
For everyday use, I think it is best to use a combination of "magnetic false eyelashes" and mascara or conventional false eyelashes for dates and other occasions where you want a lot of excitement.
Even for the eyelash extension group, "magnetic false eyelashes" might be an option during the "eyelash growth and eyelash rest" period.
(1) No brand 750 yen


It looks similar to "WASADO".
The price is 750 yen on Amazon! It is very inexpensive!
The hair is also fluffy!
The usage is the same.
The price is about 10 times different, so I think it is enough even if it is a little bit small.
I'll explain the rest in a thorough comparison.
No brand 1,650 yen

The price was 1,650 yen on Amazon.
It is more than twice the price of (2), but it is very cheap, about one-fifth the price of WASADO.
And there are three sets of lashes in the box!
It is the most cost-effective, at 550 yen per pair!
I will explain the rest here in a thorough comparison.
In-depth Comparison! What's the Difference?
Comparison (1) Eyelashes

Left "WASADO" Width 21.5mm, Magnet 8mm x 2 pieces Total 16mm, Magnet ratio 75
Center "750 yen" Width 29mm, Magnet 3mm x 3 pieces total 9mm, Magnet ratio 31
Right "1650 yen" width 31mm, magnet 6.7mm + 5mm, total 11.7mm, magnet ratio 38
The "1650 yen" on the right has the most volume of hairs, while "WASADO" is the most modestly made.
The magnet ratio is 75% for [WASADO], while the other two are in the low 30s.
The magnet percentage affects the adsorption force and retention time when the magnetic lashes are applied.
The "650 yen" is attached at both ends and in the center, but each one is as small as 3 mm, so it easily shifts when inserted between the top and bottom, does not fit well, and the magnetic force is weak, so it shifts immediately.
WASADO" and "1650 yen" on the right are on both the inner and outer edges of the eye.
The magnetic force itself is present in both, but the "1650 yen" has fewer magnets and is designed to easily float or shift in the middle where no magnets are attached.
WASADO" seems to be better at adsorbing and maintaining the lashes themselves.
Comparison 2) Mounting clip

From left to right: "WASADO", "750 yen", and "1650 yen".
Strong magnetism, lashes interfere with each other if the top and bottom are close together, so it is easier to set lashes if there is a good distance between them.
Also, it is hard to hit the fingers.
Other differences are the curvature along the eyelid.
To my eyes, the "1,650 yen" on the right fits well.
The type that fits here depends on the size of the eyes and other factors.
The biggest difference between the three types is that the "WASADO" has a short, two-part section where the magnet is set in the clip, while the other two types have magnets that cover the entire width of the clip.
This is a very influential point.
Reading Amazon reviews, there were many comments that both "750 yen" and "1650 yen" could not be installed.
I thought I was just not using it the right way.
I also tried more than 10 times for each, by trial and error, but in the end, I could not attach them even once.
The answer is the structure of this clip.
(1) "WASADO" 2-divided, so the SN poles seem to be adjusted so that the upper and lower magnets fit in the same position each time.
In contrast, the others have magnets on the entire width, so it seems difficult to align the top and bottom.
The biggest problem is that the magnetic force of the clip is stronger than that of the lashes, so even if you try to set them on your own lashes, they remain attached to the clip and do not adhere to your own lashes.
The "WSADO" has a high magnetic percentage of lashes, but the clip's magnetic force is weak, so it easily separates from the lashes.
What a surprise, we could not even compare the fitment of the other two items except for WASADO.
(*Comparison 1) Since the lashes could not be attached directly to the eye, a thin piece of paper was used as an eyelash and was adsorbed by hand.
It's hard to find a verified result with an ending like this.

WASADO seems to be a proprietary technology called Soft Magnetic Patented Portfolio Technology.
Other manufacturers may understand the logic of the defect but be unable to make effective products due to the risk of patent infringement.
I looked up magnetic eyelashes and soft magnetic patents at the patent office but could not find them, so I do not have any details.
Maybe it is not an international patent but a patent within China.
Conclusion: "WASADO" may be the only choice.
WASADO is sold at nearly half the price of older models at Rakuten, Amazon, Q10, etc.
Amazon and Q10 have few types, so Rakuten is recommended for many types. (as of October 6, 2024)
