Lash Maintenance Tips to Swear By

Eyelash Extensions

Posted by Jennifer Ngo at December 22nd, 2024

Steering clear of oil-based products is a must when it comes to maintaining your eyelash extensions. Oils can weaken the adhesive bond, causing extensions to fall off prematurely. For this reason, it’s best to opt for water-based makeup removers and cleansers specifically designed for lash aftercare. These products help protect the bond and keep your extensions looking fresh and natural! 

Lash Maintenance Tips

Proper Cleaning Routines

Cleanliness is key to keeping lash extensions looking their best while protecting your natural lashes. Use a gentle lash cleanser to remove dirt, makeup, and buildup without harming the adhesive. Regular cleaning prevents tangling, reduces the risk of infections or irritation, and promotes the longevity of your extensions. Pat your lashes dry gently instead of rubbing them. 

Handling Common Concerns

Dealing with shedding or tangling? Shedding is a natural part of the lash cycle but can be minimized with proper care and maintenance. Extensions are attached to your natural lashes, which naturally fall out as part of their growth cycle. Tangling, on the other hand, can often be avoided with simple preventative steps. Brush your extensions daily with a clean spoolie to maintain their shape and alignment, ensuring they remain tangle-free and beautiful. 

Bonus Tips for Long-Lasting Lashes

For even better results, sleep on your back or use a silk pillowcase to prevent friction that can disrupt your extensions. We know it’s not easy to change your sleeping position, but sleeping on your back is helpful for longevity!  Avoid touching or pulling at your lashes, as this can damage the extensions and your natural lashes. Keep your lashes away from high-heat environments, like saunas, as excessive heat can weaken the adhesive bond. By following these small but effective steps, you’ll maximize the lifespan of your extensions!
