6 Proven Tips To Extend The Life Of Your Lash Extensions
We all love the feeling of a new set of fluttery and voluminous lashes. Lash Extensions are the perfect way to compliment your look, whether for a special occasion or just to save some time in your morning routine. Lash extensions are a preferred alternative to applying serums dial, day and night, and waiting for them to grow. Our experts at Bombay Salon & Spa have compiled these 6 tips to make your Lashes longer and wake up to perfect lashes every morning.
1. Be Gentle on the Lashes
To get the most out of your lashes is to make sure that you treat them gently and don’t tug on them. Avoid rubbing your eyes vigorously, plucking, or tucking your lashes. This may cause the adhesive to lose grip and your lashes to fall off prematurely. Natural oils from your face or on your fingers aren’t good for your lashes either, try not to touch your lashes repeatedly. Use a lash sealant to make your lashes last longer and keep them healthy.
2. Use Oil-Free Products
Oild and Lash Extensions don’t get along, the oil breaks down the adhesive causing the extensions to fall out. Even following your skincare routine try not to use products or lotions on your face containing oil or alcohol. Also, don’t leave a cotton pad or swab on your lids as it may weaken the adhesive instead, remove your makeup gently with a dabbing motion on and around your eyes.
3. Avoid Waterproof Mascara
The amount of rubbing and tugging it takes to remove waterproof mascara is unreal. We don’t want to lose premature lashes with vigorous tugging and rubbing. If you have a dramatic pair of lash extensions you can altogether skip mascara. But, if you want that extra boost of drama, you can apply a light coat of mascara and remove it gently at the end of the day or night. In the end, just stay away from waterproof makeup.
4. Clean and Comb Your Lashes
Cleaning and brushing your lashes will extend their life making the look fluffy and full for a longer time. Your lashes get tangled while you are sleeping, so you can use a gentle cleanser that is oil and alcohol-free in the morning as well as at the night. We would suggest you brush your lashes with a clean mascara wand or a spoolie which will detangle them and make them long-lasting.
5. Sleep on Your Back
If you like sleeping on your stomach, we are sorry to break your heart! Sleeping on your face can tangle up your lashes badly and make them fall prematurely as they constantly rub on the pillow. We know changing sleeping habits can be tough but you can look at the positive side as sleeping on your back can help you reduce your back pain. You can invest in a good-quality silk pillow, so if you roll over to your side in your sleep the silk pillow can help your lashes.
6. Get Regular Refills
To preserve the beauty of your fluttering eyelashes, it's necessary to receive regular refills. At Bombay Salon & Spa, our specialist suggests scheduling a refill every 2-3 weeks, as the growth cycle of your lashes can vary. By keeping up with your lash maintenance, you can avoid any potential thinning or sparseness.
