Eyelash extention aftercare

Proper care and maintenance of your new eyelash extensions will ensure that they remain as beautiful and luscious as they are today!

Guidelines for the First 24-48 Hours

*Do not work out or participate in any activities that cause you to sweat.
*Avoid showering during the first 24-48 hours.
*In the morning, use a lash brush to gently separate and groom your lash extensions.
*Do not use oil-based products of any kind, on or near your eyes. Use an oil-free makeup remover only.
*Recommended to sleep on your side with silk/satin pillowcases, not on your stomach.*Avoid exposing your lash extensions to water, heat sauna and friction.
*Do not apply any eye cosmetics or skincare products to your lashes or eyelids.

Guidelines After 48 Hours

*Keep sauna, steam room and tanning visits to a minimum as the application of heat and moisture weakens the adhesive bond resulting in premature shedding.
*Use oil-free makeup remover only.
*Avoid using oil based skin care products on or near your lash extensions.
*Avoid using waterproof cosmetic products on or near your lash extensions

Can I wear mascara with my eyelash extensions?

In most cases, you won't need to wear mascara with your eyelash extensions, since they do give the look of already having mascara on! However, as your own lashes fall out toward the end of your pre-fill period, you may want to add a little mascara to your own natural lashes to make them match.  In this case, ONLY wear water-based mascara (like Mabelline pink & green bottle or other), and do not wear waterproof mascara as this may damage the bond of the eyelash extensions.

What if I have really sensitive eyes?

Sometimes clients exhibit certain characteristics which means they are not the best candidate to receive or keep eyelash extensions.  One thing we're happy to do is to perform a sample application. or a sort of "patch test" for no charge!  Yep. If you think you may be one of these unlucky clients, just let us know and we'll do a test to see how they fair on you. When we do the test, we'll apply 3-6 lashes on each corner of eye and you'll go home like that.  If you have no adverse reactions, we can move forward to apply the whole set in your next appointment.
