How to choose premade lash fans
Premade lash fans allow lash artists to create volume and hybrid eyelash extensions without making every fan by hand.
Our CHARISMA collection includes narrow W premade fans and U-shaped fans in black and brown, with different fan densities, curls, lengths and tray formats.
When choosing premade eyelash fans, consider the fan structure, the desired styling effect and the suitability of the extension for your client's natural lashes.
4DW, 5DW or 5DU: understanding the differences
4DW narrow W premade fans
CHARISMA 4DW fans offer a less dense appearance than 5DW fans of comparable dimensions, making them an option for softer volume and hybrid lash styling.
Explore CHARISMA 4DW narrow W premade lash fans.
5DW narrow W premade fans
CHARISMA 5DW fans have a higher strand count per fan than 4DW, allowing artists to create a fuller-looking result when other styling factors are comparable.
Choose CHARISMA 5DW narrow W premade lash fans when planning more defined volume sets.
5DU U-Series premade fans
CHARISMA 5DU fans have a U-shaped structure rather than the narrow W configuration.
This provides another fan shape for artists to consider when planning volume styling and lash direction.

Black or brown premade lash fans?
Colour influences the contrast and overall appearance of a lash set.
Black premade fans create a darker, more defined lash line, while brown fans offer a warmer alternative for clients who prefer softer colour contrast.
Our brown range includes:
The choice depends on the client's desired look, natural colouring and lash mapping.
Mixed-length or single-length lash trays?
Mixed-length trays contain several lash lengths in one box, making them practical when creating maps that use different lengths across the eye.
The CHARISMA range includes mixed trays covering 6–13mm, alongside selected shorter-length options.
Single-length trays allow artists to purchase specific lengths rather than another complete mixed tray.
This can be particularly useful when restocking frequently used lengths.
Explore our CHARISMA 5DW black premade lash fans in single lengths.
Always check the individual product options for available lengths, curls and diameters.
Choosing the right fan for the natural lashes
Fan density alone does not determine whether an extension is suitable for a client's natural lashes.
Length, fibre diameter, the number of fibres and total extension weight should all be considered during product selection.
Correct isolation, adhesive application and attachment also remain essential when using ready-made fans.
Premade fans eliminate the need to create each fan manually, but they do not replace proper technique or professional judgement.
