What is a Lash Lift?  

No matter how much mascara you layer on, sometimes lashes just need an extra boost. And while extensions and falsies are always an option, they also require far more maintenance. Enter: the lash lift. Essentially a perm for your natural lashes, this relatively low-maintenance process lifts and curls lashes long-term. For those looking to shave a little time off of their morning routines, this might be a treatment to consider.

WHAT IS A LASH LIFT?

A lash lift is mostly known as being an alternative to eyelash extensions. But don’t make the mistake in thinking that lash lifts are worse or lesser than lash extensions.

Lash lifts use specially made, non-toxic chemicals on your natural lashes. These chemicals work to break down the lashes’ structural bonds and reform them. They’re kind of like a perm for your eyelashes!

This allows your lashes to become curled from the base to the tip, which makes them appear longer and lusher. 

That’s an important distinction: while a lash lift does add curl to your lashes, it doesn’t actually add length or volume. They just appear to look longer and fuller because of the added curl.

LASH LIFT AFTERCARE

The great thing about a Lash Lift is that it is a very low maintenance procedure however, there is a little extra care required over the first 24-48hrs.

• Be gentle with your lashes; no rubbing.
• Do not get your lashes wet for the first 24 hrs.
• Do not use harsh products on your eyes/lashes.
• Use of Sauna/Steam is possible after 24hrs but may weaken the effect of the lift.
• No eye make up for 24 hours.
• Avoid waterproof mascara’s.
• Swimming should be avoided for at least 24hrs.
• No other facial beauty treatments for 24hrs.

How Do You Maintain Your Lash Lift?

A lash lift is really low-maintenance and you don’t have to worry much about it. It is enough to brush your lashes with a lash brush from time to time.
After the first two days, when you have to follow the lash lift aftercare instructions, you can relax and normally swim, exercise, wash your face, sleep properly and you don’t have to worry that your lashes will fall off or drop.
