After Your Application
Basic makeup application and normal routine can resume after your eyelash extension application. However, the following activities should be avoided within the first 3 hours.
- Spay or airbrush tanning
- Exposure to excessive steam or heat
- Contact lenses insertion
Continual Eyelash Extension Care
- Do not perm or tint lashes after eyelash extension application.
- Do not use regular eyelash curlers to curl extensions (this could break off the extensions and damage your natural lashes). The extensions have a strong curl to them and you may ask to go curlier at your next appointment if needed.
- Do not rub your eyes or lashes. Use your mascara wand or a microfiber brush (lip wand) to help with any itchiness.
- If you choose to wear mascara, only apply it to the tips and use water-based mascara that washes off easily. Do not wear waterproof mascara.
- Don’t try to remove the eyelash extensions on your own. Please schedule an appointment to safely remove your extensions. This makes sure no damage is done to your natural lashes.
Do not cut the extensions (you may cut your skin or natural lashes).
Clean your eye makeup off daily with oil-free makeup remover. After rinsing lashes, brush the lashes down to straighten them and then brush them up to fluff.
Come in every 2-3 weeks for a touch-up to keep your lashes looking full and to have grown-out or wonky lashes removed.
Never tug, twist, pick, or pull at your lashes or extensions.
Brush and groom your lashes gently with a disposable mascara spoolie or eye shadow brush.
- Avoid oil-based creams, lotions, and serums around the eye area if possible, and never apply on your eyelids.
- If you must touch your lashes or eyes, always use upward sweeping motions.
