Tips for Long-lasting Lash Lifts
Lash lifts are a fantastic way to enhance your natural lashes by giving them a beautifully curled appearance without the need for extensions. To maintain those luscious lashes and extend the life of your lift, follow these tips:
1. Avoid Moisture for the First 24 Hours
After getting a lash lift, it's crucial to avoid moisture, including steam, sweat, and water, for the first 24 hours. This allows the curl to set properly and helps maintain its shape. Avoid showering, swimming, or using saunas during this time
2. Use Oil-Free Products
Oil-based products can break down the solution used during the lash lift, causing the curl to lose its shape. Use oil-free makeup removers and skincare products around your eyes to help preserve the lift.
3. Be Gentle with Your Lashes
Handle your lashes with care to avoid weakening the lift. Avoid rubbing your eyes and refrain from using eyelash curlers, which can damage the lash structure and diminish the effect of the lift.
4. Condition Your Lashes
Just like your hair, your lashes benefit from conditioning. Use a lash serum or conditioner to keep them nourished and healthy, which can also enhance the longevity of the lift. We recommend our YUMI Keratine Restore Mascara.
5. Avoid Mascara for the First 48 Hours
Refrain from applying mascara for at least 48 hours after your lash lift. If you choose to wear mascara afterward, opt for a water-based formula to prevent any damage to the curl. We recommend our ModelRock Tubular Mascara.
6. Schedule Regular Touch-Ups
Lash lifts typically last 6-8 weeks, depending on your natural lash growth cycle. To maintain the lifted appearance, schedule regular touch-ups every 6-8 weeks with us at Holly Garvey Studio.
By following these tips, you can enjoy beautifully curled lashes that enhance your eyes and simplify your beauty routine. Remember, proper aftercare is key to maintaining the longevity and effectiveness of your lash lift!
