Lash lifts are increasingly popular as the results are immediate and long-lasting. With proper aftercare the curl and lift will look better and last over 6-8 weeks. Keep your lashes dry for the first 24 hours as the bond is still setting. Your eyelashes are still flexible for the first few days so avoid all moisture to keep the curl.
- No eye make-up, sauna, swimming, steamy showers, or steam from cooking.
- Sleep on your back to avoid pressure on your lashes which could mis-shape them.
- Cleanse your face carefully with a gentle cleanser avoiding the lashes.
- Use a spoolie daily to comb lashes upwards.
- Avoid waterproof mascara and oil-based products around eyes with your lash lift as it can relax the curl.
- Avoid touching or playing with the lashes.
Chemical treatments like tinting and curling can have a drying effect on your lashes. Invest in a good quality lash serum or conditioner like Yumi Nourishing Mascara, €30 to help your hair follicles recover. This will strengthen your eyelashes and stimulate growth.
