Aftercare recommendations for eyelash extensions
Your lash technician will give you full information about the care of your new eyelashes, but it is best to know in advance what awaits you. It is very important to follow the recommendations of the technician in this matter, because even the best work will not be able to maintain its appearance for a long time if you ignore the rules of care.
No need to be afraid of water. After the glue reaction is finished, you can safely wash your face, take a shower, without fear for the condition of your eyelashes. Wet eyelashes need to be gently soaked with a paper towel, then wait for a couple of minutes until they finally dry, then they need to be combed with a special brush.
The main limitation is the oily ingredients of cosmetics. Glue does not like an oily environment, contact with it can provoke a deterioration of its properties and provoke the peeling of artificial eyelashes. Therefore, any cosmetics (including decorative cosmetics) containing oils should not be applied to the eyelids.
If for some reason you want to use mascara, it should also be special – water-based. Instead of oil or lotion-based products for removing makeup, use micellar water or other oil-free products. Apply any cream on the face carefully, avoiding the eyelid area and the area around the eyes, also make sure not to touch the eyelashes with your hands after applying the cream.
Avoid mechanical effects on your extended eyelashes: do not rub them and do not pull. There is no need to touch the eyes and eyelids with your hands, if done correctly, the extensions do not cause any discomfort or other unpleasant sensations.
Prolonged exposure to saline and chlorinated water is also not recommended. Don't think that you can't swim in the sea or in the pool with extended eyelashes, it's just recommended to limit diving.
Before getting the first extensions, it is important to know that flawless long and thick eyelashes will not be able to please you indefinitely. This is not the fault of the lash technician , but only a feature of the human body – eyelashes are constantly updated, fall out, and new, young cilia grow in their place.
With extensions one or more artificial eyelashes are glued to each natural one. Accordingly, when your native eyelash falls out, the artificial ones glued to it also fall out.
On average, after 3-4 weeks, so many eyelashes will fall out that the eyelash row ceases to be even, and the eyelashes no longer look as beautiful as before. It's time to either remove the extensions or come for a refill. The refill allows you to restore the flawless appearance of the eyelashes and wear them again for about the same period.
