Certainly, here are some eyelash extension care tips:
- Avoid Water and Steam: For the first 24-48 hours after getting eyelash extensions, avoid water, steam, saunas, or hot showers as they can weaken the adhesive.
- Gentle Cleansing: Cleanse your lashes regularly but gently using a lash extension-safe cleanser. Avoid oil-based products as they can break down the adhesive.
- No Rubbing or Pulling: Avoid rubbing or pulling on your eyelash extensions. If you need to remove eye makeup, do it gently with a makeup remover designed for extensions.
- Brush Your Lashes: Use a clean, soft eyelash brush to gently comb through your extensions to prevent tangling and maintain their shape.
- Avoid Waterproof Makeup: Use non-waterproof makeup products to prevent the need for harsh makeup removers that can affect the adhesive.
- Sleep on Your Back: Try to sleep on your back to avoid crushing your lashes while sleeping.
- Keep Hands Clean: Avoid touching or playing with your lashes, as the natural oils from your fingers can affect the extensions.
- Maintain Regular Refills: Eyelash extensions have a lifespan, and you’ll need refills every 2-4 weeks to keep them looking full.
- Protect from Sun and Wind: Use sunglasses and consider a hat on windy days to protect your extensions from debris.
- Communicate with Your Technician: If you experience any discomfort, or unusual reactions, or have questions, don’t hesitate to contact your lash technician for advice. Remember that proper care can help extend the life of your eyelash extensions and keep them looking their best.
