OLLAVO vs RITALASH 640pc Lash Clusters Kit: Which Budget DIY Extensions Actually Win?

Two lash kits can look almost identical on the product page and still feel completely different once you start wearing them. That was the case here. I spent two weeks switching between the OLLAVO 640pc 30D-60D D-Curl kit and the RITALASH 640pc 20D-80D kit to see which one actually feels better on the eye, not just which one sounds better in the listing.

They are both around the 9-10 dollar mark, both come with 640 clusters, and both include the usual bond, seal, and tweezers. The real difference shows up in the small stuff: the density range, how the curl sits, and whether the band disappears or announces itself. That is what makes one kit easier for everyday wear and the other better if you want more range.

OLLAVO feels more natural

The OLLAVO kit runs 30D through 60D across four density tiers, with a D-curl profile and lengths from 9mm to 16mm. The thin band is the main reason it works so well. It sits close to the lash line and avoids that obvious little shelf thicker bands can create. On the eye, the 30D inner corner and 60D outer corner feel clean and controlled instead of overly dramatic.

The included bond holds for 4-5 days with proper prep: micellar water first, wait for tackiness, then pinch from root to tip after sealing. The tweezers are usable but basic, so anyone doing their lashes regularly will probably replace them eventually. The fibers are soft and comfortable, though they do start to tip-curl a little after a few days. The 30D clusters are still the best part of the kit because they look the most believable in normal daylight.

RITALASH gives you more range

RITALASH takes a different approach: 20D through 80D across four density tiers, 9-16mm lengths, and a softer C/D hybrid curl. That wider range is useful because you can keep the inner corner whisper-soft while still having enough density to build real drama on the outer edge. The band is a little thicker, which makes placement easier when you are still learning, but it does show a bit more at close range.

Bond performance is similar: 4-5 days with proper prep, maybe less if your lids run oily. RITALASH also includes a lash brush, and the tweezers are a little better than OLLAVO's. The 20D clusters are the standout for me because they blend so softly at the inner corner, while the 80D pieces are there when you want a fuller, more event-ready finish.

Head-to-head comparison

What OLLAVO does best

The thin band. If you care most about not seeing the lash line, OLLAVO has the edge. The slimmer spine sits closer to the natural lash and blends more cleanly. At 30D and 40D, it looks like a subtle lift instead of an obvious set of clusters.

The 30D inner-corner clusters. These are the most believable pieces in the box. At 9-10mm, they are small enough to stay quiet on the inner third of the eye, which is exactly where a lot of kits start looking heavy. Having 30D in the mix makes the whole gradient easier to build.

What RITALASH does best

The density range. 20D to 80D covers more ground than 30D to 60D. The 20D pieces are better for a soft inner corner, and the 80D clusters are there when you want the outer edge to look fuller. If you only want one kit for both everyday wear and occasional glam, this is the safer pick.

Beginner accessibility. The slightly thicker band is easier to see while you are placing the clusters, which helps if you are still getting the hang of it. The included lash brush is actually useful, and the tweezers feel a little less fiddly. Those small conveniences matter more than they sound like they should.

So which one should you pick?

Pick OLLAVO if: you want the most natural-looking result, you care a lot about the band disappearing, and you mostly wear lashes for everyday settings.

Pick RITALASH if: you want more range from one box, you are newer to DIY clusters and want a slightly easier band to place, or you like having a softer natural look and a more dramatic option in the same kit.

Both kits are good for the price, and neither bond is going to beat a separate premium adhesive. If I am reaching for one for daily wear, I still lean OLLAVO because of the thinner band. If I wanted one kit to cover more situations without overthinking it, I would grab RITALASH.

- or -

Both kits prove that the gap between budget Amazon clusters and premium brands has narrowed to nearly nothing. Whichever you choose, the real upgrade is not the brand - it is a separate premium bond, a 30x mirror, and giving your natural lashes a break day between sets.
