AFTER CARE & MAINTENANCE
Lash extensions are semi permanent and can last an entire natural growth cycle. Like
any other hair on our bodies, our lashes shed. When our lashes shed, the extension
goes with it. We lose anywhere from 2-5 lashes per eye, per day. This shedding occurs
with or without having extensions applied. Because of this, you'll need a touch up
every two to three weeks to keep your lashes full.
Retention rates can vary depending
upon aftercare as well. It's important that you properly care for your lashes and keep
them clean and oil free, as oil tends to weaken the adhesive bond and affect retention.
You'll find all the do's and dont's and proper steps to take listed below. Following
these instructions will protect your investment and ensure your lashes stay as full as
possible between touch-ups.
CLEAN YOUR LASHES
Be sure to cleanse your lashes daily using an oil free, extension safe cleanser. Rinse with water and blot the excess with a tissue.
Dry Your Lashes
We recommend using the cool shot and low setting on your blow dryer to fluff and dry
your lashes. Once dry, you may comb them.
Comb Your Lashes
Be sure to comb your lashes daily. This will keep your lashes styled and facing in the right
direction.
Oil Free Makeup Remover
Remove your makeup using an oil free makeup remover and avoid cotton around the lash
line. Small strands of cotton can snag and pull your extensions.
Facial Cream
It's recommended to apply your nighttime facial creams at least one hour before bed to
avoid any oil transfer. Morning creams can be applied as usual.
Keep It Cool
Be careful around extreme heat and open flame. For example, opening an oven or standing
over a grill. High temperatures can singe your lashes and straighten your extensions,
causing tangling and damage. Avoid saunas and steam rooms as well.
No Picking
Avoid pulling, picking or tugging at your lashes. This can cause damage and premature loss
of extensions. Keep in mind that your lashes should never hurt or feel uncomfortable. if this
occurs, please contact us immediately.

DITCH THE MASCARA + OIL BASED EYE PRODUCTS
You won't need mascara anyways! Avoid all oil based makeup and primers around the
eyes. Oily products will cause your extensions to fall off prematurely. There are plenty of
extension safe eyeliners available and most use one already without knowing it. All you
need to do is check the ingredients. If you have any questions, don't hesitate to contact us.
Facials
Ask your aesthetician to cover your lashes while receiving a steam facial or any sort of
toning mist.
SCHEDULE TOUCH UPS EVERY 2-3 WEEKS
Pre-booking your appointments will ensure that you get the date and time that you prefer. It
will also help you to avoid losing more than 40% of your lashes before your appointment
and is a guarantee that your lashes will always look great! If you lose too many lashes and
go too long between touch-ups, you'll have to have a new set applied.
