Here’s some lash advice on how to maintain your lashes.

  • Don’t get your lashes wet for 24 hours after your service. Try to keep them away from sweat, steam, saltwater and humidity.

  • After your 24 hours are up, you’re able to wash your lashes.

  • Brush through your lashes daily with complimentary lash wand.

  • Use a Q-tip to remove makeup around lashes.

  • Avoid rubbing your eyes or tugging on your lashes.

  • Try to keep your lashes off your pillow when sleeping.

  • To extend the life of your lashes, please schedule touch-ups every 2-3 weeks.

Best Lash Bath Method:

Use oil free liquid soap such as baby shampoo to fill the bottle 1/4 of the way then fill the rest with water. Give the bottle a good shake for the pump to release good foam. Use a soft bristled brush to wash over your lashes with the soap. Rinse off your lashes and let your lashes either air dry or use a paper towel to dry them. (Regular towels can tug your lashes off.)

Lash Health Notes.

  • It’s natural to shed 1-6 natural lashes every day. We could lose up to 20% of your natural lashes every 2 weeks.

  • You tend to shed more lashes on the side you sleep on most. An eye mask for lash extensions is recommended to help maintain your lashes.

  • Mascara can cause them to fall off faster as well as causing build up which could lead to infections.

  • It is recommended to get a fresh full set for special occasions.

  • To maintain the health of your natural lashes, it is also recommended for every 5th “fill” to start with a new set due to possible build up. Doing so can lead to less eye infections with cleaning of any residue along your lash line / base of the false lashes and better retention of your lash extensions.

8 Common Reasons for Retention Issues:

  1. Natural Lash Shedding

    ( As said in “Lash FAQ’s” )

  2. Wetting Your Lashes Too Soon

  3. Oily Skin

  4. Being Rough on Lashes

    (Rubbing or tugging on lashes can cause them to fallout or harming your natural lashes.)

  5. Sleeping Style

  6. Vitamins/Meds

  7. Using Mascara

  8. Exposed to Heat

    (Opening ovens, blow drying your lashes, or heavy steam can loosen the lash glue plus cause lash extensions to melt making them appear rough/crooked.)

  9. Salt water

    (As much as I love to swim at the beach, unfortunately, salt water can dissolve the adhesive to your lash extensions.)
