Common Questions
How long do results last?
Your lash lift results typically last 6-8 weeks. After this period, your natural lash growth cycle will cause the curl to gradually return to normal.
Can I wear makeup after my appointment?
We recommend avoiding eye makeup for the first 24-48 hours. After that, you can wear makeup, but use oil-free products and avoid waterproof formulas for the best results.
What if I accidentally get my lashes wet?
If you get your lashes wet within the first 48 hours, gently pat them dry with a clean cloth. Avoid rubbing. It may slightly affect the longevity of your lift, so try to reschedule if you know water exposure is unavoidable.
Can I use mascara?
Yes, you can use regular mascara after 2-3 days. Avoid waterproof formulas as they require more aggressive removal that can damage your lifted lashes.
What should I do if my lashes feel uncomfortable?
Some slight sensitivity is normal for the first few hours. If discomfort persists or worsens, contact us immediately. Avoid touching or rubbing your eyes.
Can I combine a lash lift with other treatments?
Lash lifts pair beautifully with tinting. However, space them out if possible. Never combine with eyelash extensions.
