Lash Lift Aftercare: The First 48 Hours and After

A lash lift keeps setting after you leave. The first day or two decide how well the curl holds, and the rule is simple: keep your lashes dry and leave them alone.

The first 24 to 48 hours

• Keep water, steam and sweat away from your lashes. Skip the sauna, the hot shower on your face and the hard workout.
• No mascara or eye makeup.
• Do not rub your eyes, and try not to sleep face-down in the pillow.
• Leave the lash curler in the drawer. You will not need it.

After that

• Wash your face as usual, and pat your lashes dry instead of rubbing.
• If you wear mascara, a regular one is easier to remove than waterproof, and gentler on the lift.
• Use an oil-free remover around the eyes.
• Brush your lashes upward with a clean spoolie when they look tangled.

How long it lasts

A lash lift and tint lasts for several weeks. It fades gradually as your lashes shed and grow back in, so there is no awkward stage. Most clients rebook when the curl has relaxed.

Lash lift or lash clusters?

A lift works on your own lashes and lasts weeks. Lash clusters add volume with small groups of lashes and last up to 7 days, which suits an event or a vacation. See both lash services and prices, or go straight to the Lash Lift & Tint.
