Can You Do a Lash Lift and Tint While Pregnant?

Lash Lifting

Posted by Jennifer Ngo at June 7th, 2022

A lash lift and tint is an enticing service because you can look like you are wearing mascara without the hassle of putting it on or taking it off each day! However, many of our clients wonder, can you do a lash lift and tint while pregnant?

What Is a Lash Lift and Tint?

A lash lift and tint is a beauty treatment that gives your eyes that “wow” factor without applying any mascara! The lift part of the service involves boosting and lifting your lashes, and some refer to the treatment as a “perm for your lashes.” During the lift and tint process, a solution is used to alter the hairs of your lashes, lifting the hairs in an upward motion. Following the lift, the tinting portion of the process darkens your eyelashes. Lash artists use dyes to darken your lashes to your desired color.

Is It a Safe Procedure during Pregnancy?

Similar to using makeup near your eyes, a lash lift and tint is not invasive. While chemicals and dyes are used during the procedure, professional lash artists will only use the highest quality solutions. Any time something is applied near the eye, risks are involved; the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) states that most cosmetics are safe when used properly.  However, there are no FDA-approved color additives for dying eyelashes because the law does not require FDA approval of cosmetics; this does not mean the procedure is unsafe. Lash tinting and lifting involve the same risks as any eye makeup or treatment.  During pregnancy, women should always take precautions. Beauty procedures like a lash lift and tint can be done safely during pregnancy, but every pregnancy is different. Therefore, talking to your healthcare provider before scheduling cosmetic procedures when pregnant is best.  Pregnancy hormones can hinder or alter results. Usually, pregnancy hormones resist lash lift chemicals and hinder the lifting process. Scheduling cosmetic services during pregnancy is a personal choice, and some women continue to receive cosmetic services while others take a break.
