Eyelash Extension Aftercare Instructions
The first 24-36 hours are when the bonding process is taking place and are crucial for ensuring your extensions are long lasting.
* Do not wear contact lenses to your appointment or for the first 24 hours after application.
* Avoid getting your eyelashes wet
* Avoid hot steam from showers, Saunas, Jacuzzis and swimming
* Do not use sun beds
* Do not brush your lashes or touch them excessively
After 2-3 weeks your natural lashes, and your extensions with them, will shed naturally. Your new look can be maintained by regular infills.
The following tips are designed to help you maximise the life span and get the best from your extensions;
* Do not rub or pull at your new lashes as this will pull out your own natural lashes
* Do not use mechanical or heater eyelash curlers on your eyelash extensions
* Do not use oil-based (waterproof) mascara
* Use an oil free make-up remover to clean your lashes and eye area
* Avoid using baby wipes on your eyelash extensions
* Be careful to avoid your eyelash extensions when applying eye creams and moisturiser to your face
* Do keep the eye area clean. This is very important. Some ladies love their lashes so much they don't even want to get them wet at all. Avoiding proper
hygiene can result in an eye infection whether wearing eyelash extensions or not.
The golden rule for wearing eyelash extensions is the less you touch them the longer they will last. However, it is important to keep the eye area clean.
Never attempt to remove lashes by pulling them out. Always return to your Therapist for correct and safe removal to avoid damage to your
own natural lashes!

F.A.Q
What Are Eyelash Extensions?
Eyelash Extensions are individual silk or mink eyelashes which come in a variety of lengths and thicknesses.
They are applied to your own eyelashes - one eyelash extension applied to one natural eyelash - using a special glue for a natural, full, healthy looking set of eye lashes. Eyelash Extensions are perfect for special occasions or for day to day wear.
Will Eyelash Extensions damage my natural lashes?
No! Despite all of the horror stories, when applied and cared for correctly there is no damage to your own lashes. Your own eyelashes have a natural growth cycle of around 90 days after which they fall out and are replaced with a brand new eyelash. Your extensions are applied to mid to late cycle lashes meaning you get up to 60 days wear from them.
What do Eyelash Extensions look like when applied?
When applied correctly - one eyelash extension applied to one natural eyelash - the look and feel is completely natural! No-one will know you have extensions; they will just think you were born with beautiful, long lashes!
How long will a set of Eyelash Extensions Last?
When applied properly, eyelash extensions will last the length of the natural growth cycle of your eyelashes (up to 60 days). Everyone's experience will differ based on day to day activities but on average infills should only be required every 2 to 3 weeks.
How often should I get infills?
We recommend getting infill’s every 2 to 3 weeks to keep your lashes looking good. Your natural eyelashes fall off every 30 - 60 days due to the natural growth cycle and are naturally replaced with the growth of a new eyelash. Other factors such as exposure to steam, rubbing your eyes, and even your sleeping position may cause the extensions to fall sooner. Infill’s take approximately 1 hour.
Can I apply mascara to Eyelash Extensions?
You can, however it must be water based mascara. Do not use Oil based mascara (waterproof).
Any type of oil based eye make-up can dissolve the bonding agent and shorten the life of your eyelash extensions. Care also needs to be taken when removing your make-up. Only use a water-based eye make-up remover and avoid baby wipes.
Can I use Eyelash Curlers with Eyelash Extensions?
We do not recommend using eyelash curlers on your eyelash extensions as they will damage the extensions and possibly your own natural lashes.
How long will it take to apply Eyelash Extensions and how is it done?
The application process for lash extensions takes anywhere 1.5 - 3 hours. Infills will take around 1hour.
You will lay a massage with your eyes closed. The Eyelash professional will then apply an under eye gel pad to cover your lower lashes. Then the extensions will be applied to each individual eyelash on a hair by hair basis.
How do I choose the look I want?
Eyelash extensions are available in a number of lengths and thicknesses. Prior to your first appointment there will be a consultation to see what type of style you are interested in, determine what your lashes can cope with in regards to lash size. Each person's lashes will vary in strength and length and this is taken into consideration when creating a look for you. The overall look of the lashes should be very natural.
