False Lashes or Lash Extensions? The Difference You Feel by Evening
“Should I wear false lashes or get extensions?” — it depends on what you want: one evening or a whole month.
False lashes (strips)
Applied at home in 5 minutes, removed when you take off your makeup. Perfect for a one-off event — but as a daily routine they become a chore: glue, positioning, that “something on my eyelid” feeling.
Lash extensions, one by one
At MY MARAFET STUDIO in Chișinău, Mariana attaches each extension to a single natural lash — the result lasts 3–4 weeks, gets wet, sleeps and goes to the gym with you. From 600 lei for the natural 1D effect up to 900 for 6D volume, plus the KIM, KYLIE and LAMI LASH effects.
Which one wins?
- One event a year → strips work out cheaper.
- You want to look made-up every morning → extensions pay for themselves within the first week of time saved.
- Weak natural lashes → start with a lash lift and let’s talk.

FAQ
How long do strip lashes last compared to extensions?
Strip lashes go on at home in five minutes and come off with your makeup, so you get one evening out of them. Individual lash extensions stay on for three to four weeks with no daily gluing.
Can I shower, sleep and train with lash extensions?
Yes. Because each extension sits on one of your own lashes, they can get wet, you sleep in them and they hold up at the gym. Strip lashes come off with your make-up anyway and go back on from scratch each time.
Which works out cheaper, false lashes or extensions?
Count per month, not per application. For one event a year, strips are cheaper. If you want the look every morning, extensions pay for themselves in the makeup time you get back. Prices by volume are on the price page.
My natural lashes are sparse — can I still get extensions?
Not always straight away. When the natural lashes are weak, the usual starting point is a lash lamination, and the rest is decided at the consultation that comes with the appointment.
