Natural Lashes: Natural lashes should be just that, they should not be noticeable to almost anyone, unless your a lash freak like me ! You can see from comparing these lashes with others that they are much finer strands of hair. These are lashes that are going to give you a boost in length and thickness, but aren't going overboard. Perfect for daytime outings they enhance the natural look. Adding a slight touch of glamour with out looking as though your wearing lashes. Numbers 108 , 112 ,121,124,123,110,109 are all considered more of a natural range. You can also buy small accent lashes that just give a little extra length to the corners of the eye as shown below. These again are more natural as there a half set if you have never tried lashes before this is probably the best option to go for.
Full Lashes: These lashes are obviously much thicker than the natural lashes. These lashes for most are too heavy for everyday wear, But they are actually great for photos (especially distance shots). It's the same principle as theater makeup the further away people are from you, the bolder the stage makeup has to be in order to look right. If you were doing full body photos, these lashes would stand out much more, than the natural lashes would at a distance. These lashes also have a more blunt and even shape to the tips. Ardell do have more of a range than shown in this photo above, heavy lashes from this picture would be numbers 115 show girl,111,107,103,106,105, 101 Demi whispies.
Natural full lashes: These lashes for me are my personal style. They are natural looking but they will give a much more fuller and thicker look. They have a little more drama than the natural lashes but can still be worn for a day look. Equally they can be worn for a night look as for many of us, we don't want it to look obvious we are wearing lashes, but do want just a bit more of a boost in that eye area. Numbers 118,117,Demi 120, 102 Demi, 122,119,113 are considered a fuller natural.

Individual Lashes: These lashes come in different lengths and are attached individually until the lashline is full. These lashes do take longer to put on, but they look more natural where your eyelid meets your lashline. If you are a first time user i would stick to strip lashes but if you have a steady hand or a good friend these could be perfect for you !
