Lash lifting and lash tinting are beauty treatments that enhance the appearance of natural eyelashes.
Lash Lifting: This treatment involves using a chemical solution to lift and curl the natural lashes from the base, giving them a more lifted and defined look. It mimics the effect of using an eyelash curler but lasts longer, usually about 6-8 weeks. The process takes around 45-60 minutes and leaves the lashes looking fuller and more curled without the need for extensions.
Lash Tinting: This procedure involves applying a semi-permanent dye to the natural lashes, making them appear darker and more defined. It’s ideal for those with lighter lashes or anyone who wants to enhance their natural lashes without using mascara. The results typically last around 4-6 weeks, depending on the growth cycle of the lashes.
These two treatments are often done together to give a natural yet enhanced look to the lashes, without the need for daily makeup application.

To increase the longevity of your lashes, it is advised to avoid moisture and touching as much as possible.
Before your appointment:
✓ If you use waterproof mascara, avoid using it 2-3 days before your first appointment. The film it leaves on your lashes may prevent the extensions from adhering correctly.

✓ Remove contact lenses before your appointment.
During the initial 24-48 hours after your appointment:
Do not get your lashes wet for 24 hours after the lash extensions are applied. It will affect the efficacy of the glue.
✓ Avoid steam from showers, facials, saunas and swimming pools.
✓ Avoid getting moisture around the eye area when washing face, showering etc.

General guidelines to extend the life of your lashes:
✓ Avoid using oil-based skincare and makeup products around the eye, including mascara and makeup remover.
✓ Avoid waterproof mascara. If you can, it is better not to use any mascara at all. You may find you don’t even need it!
✓ Avoid running water over your face. Moisture will break down the bond of the glue.
✓ Avoid rubbing your eyes or lashes, especially when washing your face. It is recommended to clean around the eye area with a washcloth or cotton swab (Q-tip).
✓ Avoid using an eyelash curler. One of the benefits of lash extensions is the ability to add curl to your lashes. If you would like more curl, please speak to your technician.
✓ If you can, sleep on your back to avoid the risk of lashes rubbing against your pillow.
✓ Gently brush your lashes with a CLEAN mascara wand to groom them. The best time to do this is after showering, as they will be softer and less likely to damage. Water can rehydrate the glue so it is important to brush them and keep them as separated as possible to avoid clumping.
