LASH AFTERCARE
Lash Extension Aftercare Tips
Outside of a proper aftercare routine, make sure you follow these lash extension “musts” to help extend the longevity of your lashes and keep them looking their best:
- Don’t miss or postpone your lash fill appointments. Getting your lashes refilled every 2 weeks is necessary to keep that lash line looking full. We love seeing you come in routinely for your refills! Become a member to save on fills!
- Be gentle with your lashes. Avoid rubbing your eyes and picking or pulling at your lashes. Not only can this cause your lash extensions to fall off prematurely, but it is also damaging to your natural lashes.
- Avoid alcohol- and oil-based skincare or cosmetic products near or around your eye area. Both oil and alcohol will break down the lash adhesive, causing premature lash fallout. This also means no waterproof mascara! If you still want to use a little mascara for some extra oomph, try our Amplify + Extend Mascara Duo for an extension-safe option.

The number one way totake care of your eyelash extensionsis to regularly clean them with an oil-free cleanser, such as ourLash Detox foaming cleanser. It is also important to brush through them daily to avoid any tangling, and to avoid tugging or picking at your lashes.
Yes, of course! Just be sure to wait 8 hours after your service to get them wet. After that, feel free to shower, work out and enjoy beach days! If you’re going on more vigorousswims, just make sure to pack a pair of goggles to reduce excess friction.
The best way to avoid tangled lashes is to simply switch to sleeping on your back. When you wake up, make sure you are brushing through your lashes with our Crystal Lash Wand to fluff your lashes back into place.
If you want to add some extra protection to your lashes while you sleep, consider wearing our 3D Contoured Sleep Mask! It will keep your lashes from getting tangled and smashed while you sleep.
No! Properly cleaning your lashes protects your eyelids from blepharitis and premature lash fallout. If not cleaned regularly, makeup and debris will build up on your lash line, weakening the adhesive bond between your extensions and your natural lashes, causing them to fall out faster.
We do not recommend using micellar water on your extensions due to it commonly containing glycol, which will break the adhesive down and result in poor retention. If you need a lash extension-friendly makeup remover, try ourGel Eye Makeup Remover.
Yes, you can, but most guests discover they don’t need it with lash extensions! If you wish to add a little extra drama to your lash line, be sure to use a lash extension-friendly mascara to avoid damage and premature lash fallout—like ourAmplify + Extend Mascara Duo.
