Sometimes, your eyelashes can make or break your whole look. Short and fallen lashes will do nothing but ruin your eye makeup. While eyelash extensions work as a probable solution, we understand that not everyone is open to the process.
This is where lash lift fits in. This revolutionary new treatment can spare you from all your eyelash troubles. Instead of heating your eyelash curlers and putting on fake mink lashes, this non-invasive and cost-effective treatment can give you stunning results in no time. All you need are your natural lashes and an hour of your day.
What exactly is a lash lift?
A lash lift is more or less like a perm for your lashes. With this treatment, you can give your eyelashes an upward and realistic curl. Anyone interested in a lash lift can approach their eyelash specialists to find the perfect curl size for your eye shape. Unlike a lash extension, with an eyelash lift, your natural lashes are treated. There is no need for any special preparation for this procedure. On the day of your treatment, just ensure you avoid any eye makeup and not wear your contact lenses.
The procedure
Our eyelash specialists start the procedure by gently cleansing your lashes, separating the bottom ones from the top ones. After this, a silicon shield is stuck on to the skin with the help of a gentle adhesive. Your lashes are then combed on to the shield to help them take the shape of the shield. A serum is then applied to your lashes.
The unique formula of the serum softens the hair, making it moldable. The serum is left on the lashes for about 6 to 10 minutes depending upon the nature of the lashes. A setting solution and oil are applied to complete the treatment. This setting solution helps lock the shape of the eyelashes by restructuring the bond. The nourishing oil is a combination of Keratin, sodium PCA, aloe vera, glycerin, and grapeseed oil. The entire procedure will take anywhere between 45 minutes and 1 hour depending on the nature of your natural eyelashes.
If your eyelashes are light-colored and need some definition, you can also opt for a lash tint. Our eyelash specialists will make the recommendation after a personal consultation, or you can decide for yourself. Adding a lash tint will add extra depth and darkness to the eyelash, and will free you from putting mascara every time you go out.
Results and maintenance
A lash lift treatment will ensure that your eyelashes look naturally long, thick and curled. The results will last up to 8 weeks, after which it may require a redo as the natural lashes shed and new ones replace them. The first 24 hours after the procedure is very crucial to the lash lift treatment’s longevity. During this period, you should avoid getting moisture in any form. You should also avoid eye make up during this time to help your lashes maintain their shape. If you wish to add more color and definition to your lashes, you can apply a coat of mascara after the 24-hour mark from the time of the treatment.
Unlike lash extensions, lash lift is extremely low maintenance. You do not have to worry about the lashes falling off or losing their shape. However, it is good to keep them conditioned and nourished using a facial oil or pure coconut oil.
Final thoughts
If you think lash extensions are not your thing, give lash lift a try. The treatment will surely help enhance your natural lashes to its full glory. You will look fresh-faced and ready to face the world without any effort. Book your appointment today with our eyelash specialists at BROWZ to get the perfect lash lift.
