Eyelash extensions had been all the rage, but a new trend has taken over which is safer, quicker and yields better results - the eyelash lift!

What is an eyelash lift?

An eyelash lift is a chemical free treatment that gives the lashes definition, lift and separation without the use of any extensions. Simply put, eyelash lift is a process that gives the illusion of wearing a great mascara 24/7. It basically lifts your natural lashes and curls them, just like a perm but for your eyelashes. It is quite low maintenance and lasts about 6-8 weeks.

What is the process of an eyelash lift?

An eyelash extension begins with the technician using a medical glue to place a silicone rod on your eyelids. The tips of your eyelashes are glued to the silicone rod to give them a curl. A lifting serum is also applied, followed by a hydrating setting solution. The lifting serum is applied for about 15-20 minutes and the setting solution for another 20 minutes or so. The whole process hardly takes 40 minutes, and can be followed by an eyelash tint if needed, which takes another 10 minutes or so.

Is an eyelash lift easy to maintain?

An eyelash lift requires less maintenance than eyelash extensions, and you can even wear mascara. The first two days followed by an eyelash lift, you are not to use warm water, and must keep your face away from even a hot bath as it may deactivate the setting solution. The first 24 hours are crucial too and you must steer away from all sorts of moisture and humidity. It is quite easy to maintain and you basically have to do nothing to manage it other than following the precautions the first 24 hours. Maintaining lash beautification is easier when you have a personal lash lift and tint kit at the comfort of your home.

How much does an eyelash lift cost?

While eyelash extensions can cost up to and over $200, an eyelash lift just costs $75-$100, hence it is quite cost effective.
