A lash lift is one of the most popular beauty treatments for achieving naturally lifted, curled lashes without the need for extensions. But to get the most out of your treatment, proper aftercare is essential. Here's everything you need to know.
The First 24-48 Hours
The initial period after your lash lift is crucial for setting the curl. During this time:
- Avoid getting your lashes wet - no swimming, steaming, or heavy sweating
- Don't rub or touch your eyes
- Avoid mascara and eye makeup
- Sleep on your back if possible to prevent crushing the curl
Daily Care Routine
Once the initial setting period has passed, maintaining your lash lift is simple:
- Gently cleanse your lashes daily with an oil-free cleanser
- Use a clean spoolie to brush through lashes each morning
- Apply a nourishing lash serum to keep lashes healthy
- Avoid oil-based makeup removers which can break down the lift
Extend Your Results
With proper care, your lash lift can last 6-8 weeks. To maximise longevity:
- Use our Lash Be Long Growth Serum to strengthen and condition
- Avoid waterproof mascaras which require harsh removers
- Be gentle when cleansing around the eye area
- Consider a conditioning treatment at the 4-week mark
When to Book Your Next Appointment
We recommend booking your next lash lift every 6-8 weeks, depending on your natural lash growth cycle. Many clients find that regular treatments actually improve their natural lash health over time.
