Oil-based products are not a very good choice when you have extensions.

Application of eyeshadow

You need to be very careful when it comes to the application of eyeshadow.

Make sure the product you’ve chosen doesn’t have a lot of‘ fallout’ during the application.

Use the brush very lightly to prevent it. using primer can avoid the eyeshadow to fall out.

Apply eyeshadow a little above the lash line to reduce the damage to the extensions.

During the time of application pay attention to your hands and finger, it should not rest upon your eyelash.

Removal of eyeshadow

The most important thing is the safe removal of your makeup from your eyelid.

If you want your eyelashes to stay longer and healthy, make sure you clean your makeup before going to bed.

Look for any particles on your extension and clean it thoroughly.

 

Can you wash your eyes with eyelash extensions on?

Yes, you can wash your eyes with eyelash extensions on but with specialized products specially made for extensions.

You should seek help from a professional regarding the best cleanser for your extensions.

If you do not have any special product then avoid your eyes area while washing your face.

Even if you have products, avoid rubbing the extensions as they can rip off your extensions as well as a natural eyelash.

 

Products you must avoid when lashing extensions on

Falsies or fake lashes

Falsies or fake lashes are not advisable to wear with lash extensions because of tons of drawbacks. It can damage both your natural eyelashes and your extensions.

False lashes are heavy which bends your extensions and damages them. the glue used in the application of falsies is so strong that it may end up pulling your eyelashes.

Fake lashes are strictly not allowed when it comes to extensions.

Mascara

There is no need to wear mascara with extensions on!

Keep your eyelashes clean

The first thing to take care of your extension is to keep your lash clean. Use a lash cleanser to clean your eyelashes daily.

Plenty of lash cleansers are available in the market which you can buy. The cleanser should be of good quality. You can also seek professional advice before buying a product.

Always go for a product that is oil-free and paraben-free for a healthy lash.

Avoid lash friction

Keep your hands away from your lash. Rubbing, itching, pulling, etc can cause your lashes to fall out.

When cleaning make sure you do it gently to avoid friction.

Get your lash extensions refills from time to time

Everything mentioned above is important but this one is very important. To maintain your fuller and healthy lashes you should fix your appointment after every 2 weeks.

Longer gaps between the sessions will create gaps in your lashes as the natural lashes fall. You should get it done before this happens as it can make your eyes look ugly.
