THE ULTIMATE GUIDE TO EYELASH CARE

Here are some tips for caring for your eyelashes:

  1. Avoid getting them wet for the first 24-48 hours: Water can weaken the adhesive used to attach the extensions, so it's essential to keep them dry during the initial period. This means avoiding activities like swimming, saunas, and steam rooms.
  2. Be gentle when cleansing your face: When washing your face, use a gentle cleanser and avoid rubbing your eyes vigorously. Instead, lightly splash water on your face or use a soft cloth to cleanse the area around your eyes.
  3. Avoid oil-based products: Oil can break down the adhesive used for eyelash extensions, causing them to fall off prematurely. Steer clear of oil-based cleansers, makeup removers, and skincare products. Opt for oil-free alternatives instead.
  4. Don't use mascara on your extensions: One of the benefits of eyelash extensions is that they provide a dark, voluminous look without the need for mascara. Using mascara can clump the extensions together and make them look unnatural. If you really want to use mascara, choose a water-based and specifically formulated mascara for eyelash extensions.
  5. Be cautious with eye makeup: While wearing eyelash extensions, it's best to avoid using eyeliner and eyeshadow that are difficult to remove. These products can leave residue on the extensions or cause them to clump together. If you do apply eye makeup, use oil-free and water-based formulas.
  6. Avoid rubbing or pulling your eyelash extensions: It's important to resist the temptation to rub or pull at your extensions. This can damage both the extensions and your natural lashes. If you need to remove any debris or makeup, gently cleanse the area with a cotton swab or a soft brush designed for eyelash extensions.
  7. Brush your extensions regularly: Use a clean and soft mascara wand or an eyelash brush to gently comb through your extensions. This helps keep them looking neat, untangled, and in place. Brush them from the base to the tips, taking care not to tug or pull.
  8. Sleep on your back or with a silk pillowcase: Sleeping on your back or using a silk pillowcase reduces friction and minimizes the chances of your extensions getting caught or bent while you sleep.
  9. Schedule regular touch-ups: Eyelash extensions naturally shed along with your natural lashes, so you'll need to schedule regular touch-ups to maintain their fullness. Depending on your lash growth cycle, touch-ups are typically needed every 2-3 weeks.
