Now that you’ve got the basics down and know how to clean eyelash extensions, there are a few other things you should know. The following tips will help you get the most out of your lash extensions and make them last as long as possible.
Do not let your eyelash extensions get wet within the first 24 hours of their application. They need a little time for the glue to properly dry and settle. After the first 24 hours have passed, then you can begin your daily cleaning routine.
Use a lash brush to comb through the extensions around four times a day. This will keep each of the individual lashes separated and help maintain their shape. You don’t have to spend too long doing this; just a quick comb-through will do.
Sleep in a position where your eyelashes won’t make contact with the pillow, to prevent unnecessary shedding. Of course, this isn’t always preventable as we move during the course of our sleep, but anything you can do to reduce contact with your eyelashes will help.
Don’t pull on your eyelash extensions as you’re likely to pull out your natural lashes too. If you’re usually an eyelash-puller, it’s time to break the habit.
To make sure your lashes continue to look perfect, return to your technician for infill appointments. We recommend getting infills every 2-4 weeks, to get the best results.
Do not use mascara or liquid liner whilst you have eyelash extensions applied. The product will stick to the extensions, which will encourage bacteria to grow. Embrace a low-maintenance make-up routine!
