Here are some essential lash care tips to keep your lashes looking lush and lasting longer:
- Keep Lashes Dry for 24 Hours: After a lash lift or extensions, avoid water, steam, and heavy sweating for 24 hours to let the adhesive or treatment set properly.
- Avoid Oil-Based Products: Oil-based cleansers, makeup removers, and creams can break down the adhesive on extensions or shorten the lift's lifespan. Opt for water-based products instead.
- Gentle Cleansing Only: Clean lashes with a gentle, lash-friendly cleanser. Avoid rubbing or pulling on them, and use a soft brush to maintain their shape and prevent buildup.
- Brush Daily: Lightly brush your lashes daily with a clean spoolie to keep them looking fresh and separated.
- Avoid Waterproof Mascara: Waterproof mascaras are harder to remove and can damage your lashes, especially extensions. If needed, use a water-based formula on the tips only.
- Hands Off: Resist the urge to touch or pull on your lashes. Frequent touching can lead to lash loss and compromise your lash look.
- Sleep on Your Back: If possible, sleeping on your back can help prevent your lashes from being squished or bent while you rest.
With these tips, you’ll keep your lashes looking beautiful and ensure they last as long as possible!
