You can enjoy your beautiful new eyelash extensions with little need to adjust your lifestyle. Proper care and maintenance of your new Eyelash Extensions will ensure that they remain as beautiful and luscious as they are today!
Guidelines for the First 24-48 Hours:
- Keep sauna, steam room & tanning visits to a minimum as the application of contact heat and moisture weakens the adhesive bond resulting in premature lash extension loss.
- Cleanse your lashes and your eyelids daily to maintain healthy and beautiful lashes. Use Xtreme Lashes Eye Makeup Remover and Facial Cleanser along with lint-free applicators to gently remove eye makeup and mascara.
- Avoid using oil-based skin care products on or near your lash extensions, including but not limited to eye creams, eye serums, Vaseline, heavy oils and cleansers as these can come into contact with your lashes and dissolve the adhesive bond.
- Avoid using waterproof cosmetic products on or near your eyelashes, including waterproof mascara and eyeliner. Ask your stylist about the Xtreme Lashes GlideLiner Long Lasting Eye Pencil and mascara that is formulated just for eyelash extensions.
- Although mascara is not necessary with your eyelashes, it can be used sparingly, on the tips only. This will achieve an even more dramatic look for your lash extensions. You may also use this mascara for your lower lashes.
- Groom your lashes daily using the lash brush your provided, to style your lash extensions into place.
- Mechanical eyelash curlers can break both natural and synthetic lashes.
- After the first 24 hours, you can applythe Xtreme Lashes Protective Coating once or twice per week to your new lashes to preserve the look and extend the life of the eyelash extensions. Please follow the instructions on the product label for best results.
- Be gentle with your new lashes! Do not pick or pull them. When removing eye makeup, be gentle and refrain from excessive rubbing. The life cycle of an eyelash is 60 to 90 days. Lashes will shed naturally at the end of their life cycle and refills/relashes will be necessary every 2 to 4 weeks to replenish these lashes.
