Lash Lift Aftercare
Nothing is more of a confidence boost than a gorgeous set of lashes. Mascara, eyeliner, falsies and more can all add extra length, volume and colour to your eyes. But sometimes we just don’t have the time to put it all on in the morning! For a long-lasting way to define your eyes without the hassle, then a lash lift is the solution for you!
If you’re considering getting a lash lift in Sunshine Coast, it’s important to know what the treatment entails and how to properly take care of your lashes afterwards. Here is everything you need to know about lash lifts, from what to expect and their aftercare.
What is a Lash Lift?
Mimicking the look of elongated, dense and lifted false eyelashes, a lash lift is a popular beauty treatment that is used to boost the appearance of natural lashes. Lash lifts can give your lashes more curl, length, and volume without the need for extensions, mascara or falsies.
Unlike false eyelashes or extensions, this treatment does not add an additional lash hair. Instead, this semi-permanent beauty treatment uses a special solution to curl and lifts your natural eyelashes. The solution breaks down the bonds in your lashes before they are shaped and set in place using a silicone rod.
The lash lift results can last up to 6-8 weeks and are the ideal solution for those who are looking to enhance their eye shape in an instant!
- Add length, volume and curl to your lashes.
- Long-lasting
- Affordable
- Non-invasive
- Pain-free
What To Expect In Your Procedure
So you’ve booked in for your first lash lift, but what can you expect on the day of your procedure? Before your treatment begins, your lash technician will assess your natural lashes to ensure that they are suitable for a lift. If you have any pre-existing conditions such as eye infections, allergies or sensitivities, then a lash lift may not be right for you.
To prepare for your lift, be sure to:
- Remove all eye makeup, contact lenses, and false eyelashes before your appointment.
- Avoid curling your natural lashes for at least 24 hours prior to treatment.
- Stop using waterproof mascara 48 hours before your procedure since it leaves behind an unwanted residue.
- Patients with an eye infection, need to wait until it has cleared prior to treatment.
Your lash stylist will gently close your eyes and apply eye pads underneath to protect your under-eye skin. Next, they will place the rods on each eye near the lash line and carefully comb your natural lashes onto the rod. The lifting solution will be smoothed across your lashes and left to set, and then followed with a setting solution.
You can then relax for about whilst your treatment sets. When the time is up, you will be able to open your eyes and see an instant difference in the appearance of your lashes!
Lash Lift Aftercare
Lash Lift aftercare is key to maintaining the best results for your treatment and keeping your lashes healthy!
While this may sound daunting, aftercare is easy to follow and can be incorporated into your daily routine with minimal effort
Aftercare is especially important in the first 24 hours after your appointment as the lashes are still flexible and setting.
This will ensure that your lashes are protected and that the treatment can work its magic!
For the first few days, you should:
- Avoid getting your lashes wet. This includes steam, moisture and sweat.
- Avoid sleeping on your face
- Avoid applying makeup to your lashes
- Avoid heat, including excess exposure to the sun or tanning beds.
- Do not apply oil-based serums to the lashes or las line.
- Do not undergo other facial beauty treatments
