Lash Extension After Care
Proper lash extension aftercare is easy but a must if you want those gorgeous lashes to last as long as possible. And we've got you covered with these simpler and fab tips to keep your lashes healthy and beautiful between infill appointments!
Tip 1: Cleanse Daily - You CAN get your lash wet immediately!
Cleansing your lashes daily is non-negotiable to remove any makeup, dirt or oil that may have built up throughout the day, which can cause your lashes to fall off too soon. Only use a proper lash cleanser designed for lash extensions as it prolongs the lash adhesive, balances your eye area's pH, and removes build-up without leaving any residue. Our award-winning lash cleanser also doubles as an eye makeup remover and is your secret weapon for making your lashes last longer! Simply apply the foam using the brush provided to the lashes, focusing on cleaning the roots of your lashes where buildup hides, and rinse with water. Easy-peasy!
YES, YOU CAN ACTUALLY GET LASH EXTENSIONS WET STRAIGHT AWAY - Not getting them wet for 24 hours was a pre-2015 rumour that was quickly myth busted but still spread today. We actually wet your lashes with mist at the end of every appointment as our adhesive cures through humidity and therefore helps them cure faster and last longer!
Tip 2: Avoid products on the lashes
Treat your lashes with TLC and avoid picking or pulling at your lash extensions as it can cause damage to your natural lashes and make your lash extensions fall out faster. We know it's tempting, but don't do it, girl!
Tip 2: Be Gentle, No Picking and Pulling
Treat your lashes with TLC and avoid picking or pulling at your lash extensions as it can cause damage to your natural lashes and make your lash extensions fall out faster. We know it's tempting, but don't do it, girl!
Tip 3: Brush Your Lashes
A quick daily brush keeps your lashes in place and prevents them from getting tangled or crossing over. Plus, it helps to remove any dirt and other products that may have fallen onto your lashes. Just remember to be gentle and avoid touching or pulling on your lash extensions to keep them looking fab.
Tip 4: Removal
We know you love your lashes, but whatever you do, don't pull them off! This can cause damage to your natural lashes and can hurt. Instead, book a "Remove the Stragglers Appointment" or call us for a same-day removal. And please don't coat your lashes with oils like olive, coconut, or canola oil! This can increase the risk of eye infection and make your lashes fall off in a snap. Safety first, gal!
Tip 5: Rebooking
Don't forget to book your next fill! We recommend a small to medium infill every three weeks for most clients but make sure to check with your artist for their advice as to what will be best for you. And psst, we usually book out around three weeks in advance, so don't wait to secure your spot!

Lash Lift
After Care
We want to help you maintain your stunning lash lift results, so we're here to share some easy-to-follow aftercare steps.
Step 1:
Avoid getting your lashes wet for the first 24 hours after your lash lift. This will allow the lift to set correctly and help it last longer.
Step 2:
Be gentle when washing your face. Use a mild, oil-free cleanser and avoid rubbing or pulling on your lashes. This can damage the lift and cause fallout.
Step 3:
Brush your lashes daily using a clean lash brush. Start at the base and gently comb through to the tips. This will keep them lifted and separated, giving you a beautiful, fluttery look.
Step 4:
Wait at least 48 hours before applying mascara. When you start wearing mascara again, choose a water-based formula that's easy to remove. Avoid waterproof or oil-based mascaras, as these can weaken the lift.
Step 5:
Wait at least 72 hours before applying any eyelash growth serum.
Step 6:
Be mindful of how you sleep. Try to sleep on your back or with your head elevated to avoid putting pressure on your lashes. You can also use a silk or satin pillowcase to reduce friction and prevent tangling.
By following these simple steps, you can enjoy your stunning lash lift for up to six weeks. If you have any questions or concerns, don't hesitate to reach out to us. We're here to help you look and feel your best!
