Question: what is the difference between mink and individual lashes?
Answer: Real mink eyelashes are made from the soft tail fur of the Siberian or Chinese mink, an animal similar to a ferret or otter. The fibers in real silk eyelashes, on the other hand, come from the cocoons of the silkworm - the very same fibers that can be spun into a thread and used to create expensive silk fabrics.
