EyeLash Extensions by Courtney

What Are Lash Extensions?

Lash Extensions are a glamorous new way to extend the length and thickness of natural eyelashes, and are a practical, convenient and beautiful alternative to the daily use of mascara.  Unlike decades-old, traditional false lashes, lash extensions are the first innovation in lash lengthening that can be worn daily, without nightly removal.  Because each tapered, synthetic lash is bonded to a single natural lash, the final result is of effortless glamour and difficult to detect even close up. 

How Long Do They Really Last?

When properly applied, using Platinum Bond Adhesive, lash extensions can be worn throughout the year with minimal monthly maintenance.  Touch-ups are recommended after the initial full set application to refill any lashes that have cycled out.  To maintain the full, thick appearance of a new set of lashes a visit to your beauty/lash professional is recommended every 2-3 weeks based on your own natural lash growth cycle.

Can Lash Extensions Harm Natural Lashes?

When applied properly, lash extensions will not harm natural lashes.  The Lash application technique allows natural lashes to grow and thrive with extensions.  This technique requires several different “separation” steps during the application process so each extension is adhered to a single natural lash in order to prevent interruption of the lash growth cycle.  

Can Mascara Be Used With Lash Extensions?

Mascara is typically not needed with lash extensions.  Mascara should only be used when a touch-up is drawing near.  Water-soluble mascara can be worn; however constant use of mascara may shorten the lifespan of lashes.  Waterproof mascara is not recommended for use, as it will dissolve the bond with the lashes.

• Do not apply any eye cosmetics or skin care products to your lashes or eye area.
• When you shower, limit your time and water temperature.

Tips 

• Using a lint-free cloth or facial tissue and an oil-free cleanser, you can gently cleanse your face, avoiding the lash line area. The cloth should be slightly damp but not wet, to avoid any chance of dripping from the forehead into the eye area. Dry your face by patting gently with a lint-free cloth, while carefully avoiding any contact with your lashes.
