Lash extensions have become a norm for many individuals to access longer and fuller eyelashes. If you regularly go for eyelash extension appointments you may be wondering how you can keep your lashes looking great even when you are between appointments. Here are some very simple ways that you can enjoy better lashes this year by caring for your lashes using proper methods
If You Experience Irritation And Need To Itch
If you find that your eyes are constantly itchy or that the eyelash extensions have started to cause some type of irritation, it may be wise for you to consider taking the right steps when you are itching and rubbing your eyelashes.
Many people that experienced irritation can find that their eyelashes start to fall off prematurely. Rather than losing out on the extra volume or having your lashes go completely, there are some easy ways that you can manage irritation without damaging your eyelashes.
Don’t rub your full eye: start by rubbing the inside of your eyelid in a circular motion quite softly. Also, try to avoid running your finger along the lash line can help to alleviate an itch without ruining your eyelashes.
Using a lash wand: using a lash wand can help to give your eyelashes a fuller look without risking any type of damage. If you don’t have a good eyelash wand before you receive extensions, you might want to consider grabbing one of these ones so that you can style your extensions and make sure that they look great everyday.
If You Expose Your Eyelashes To Heat
Heat and eyelash extensions can often lead to glue starting to dislodge and a series of issues with your eyelash extensions coming off. Keeping your eyelashes away from heat sources can make sure that your eyelashes won’t get singed and can help make sure that they won’t have a clumpy look either. High heat can often cause a synthetic eyelash extension to melt so avoiding these types of situations is important.
One of the most common ways that eyelashes can be damaged is with exposure to hairdryers. Making sure that you are using a cooler setting along your bangs or areas where your eyelashes could be exposed to heat can be important.
Start by putting your dryer on a low heat setting. Even though this can take a little bit longer for drying your hair, it leads to better health for your lashes and better health for your hair over time.
Flipping your head upside down for drying can also be an easy way to quickly dry your hair without exposing your eyes and face to the warmth of a hairdryer. Although this can be a bit awkward at first, this is extremely beneficial to preventing heat from making its way onto your lashes.
Your Eyes Are Getting Dry And The Skin Requires Moisturizer
Proper moisturizing and skincare for your eyelashes and around your eyes remains important. When choosing moisturizing ingredients it’s important to try creams that don’t contain items like oil. You also need to be careful when applying these moisturizers along the lash line because it can quickly break down Lash extension adhesives. If you do have a favorite type of moisturizer or ingredient that contains alcohol or oils, try to use some form of applicator to really control and apply these moisturizers. Try to avoid getting them anywhere close to your eyelash extensions as this can damage the glue and lead to the extensions quickly detaching.
When it comes down to maintaining healthy long lasting lashes, it’s a good rule of thumb to consider being strategic where you place your creams and moisturizers, making sure that you are only rubbing and applying cream in certain areas and that you can develop new routines to help manage your beauty routine with your eyelashes.
Developing these new routines and learning how to live with eyelash extensions can be a bit difficult but after just a few weeks, you’ll develop some of these new improved habits and have healthier lashes than ever before.
By avoiding heat and managing your lashes in a new way, you can make sure that your investment in eyelash extensions will be well protected. Be sure to contact us to learn more about the latest in lash care and lash tips.
