How To Properly Care For Your Eyelash Extensions

Attention, Lash Lovers!

For those devoted to lash extensions and eager to keep them in prime condition, there's a key tip: use a specialty lash cleanser every day. Regular cleansers often contain ingredients that can shorten the lifespan of your lash extensions. So, resist the temptation to skimp on proper care.

Contrary to popular belief, avoiding water doesn't prolong their life. In fact, your eyelids are the oiliest part of your body, and this oil, along with makeup residue, can wreak havoc on lash retention.

To maintain those fluffy extensions, remember it's a team effort between you and your Lash Stylist. Your stylist does their part by using quality products and precise techniques. Your role? Keep your lashes clean with a lash-friendly cleanser and steer clear of oily products like certain moisturisers and sunscreens.

A pro tip: focus on cleansing the base of your natural lashes. This is where your new extensions are attached during refills. A clean base ensures a stronger bond and longer-lasting results.

Why is oil a problem? Both natural oils and those in products create a barrier, weakening the bond between your natural lash and the extension. Using a suitable cleanser, priced around $30, not only prolongs the life of your extensions but also saves you money in the long run, as your extensions will require fewer touch-ups.

In summary, proper lash care is essential for maximizing the life and beauty of your lash extensions. Remember, it's a 50/50 relationship between you and your stylist and all you need to do is keep your lashes squeaky clean – a small investment for lasting, stunning lashes.
