Best Lash Extension Retention Practices

Keep Them Clean:

Lash Shampoo Variety Set w/Brushes

• Avoid water

  For best lash extension retention, keep your lashes as dry as possible, especially for the first 48 hours after getting them applied. Try to avoid swimming, humidity, and sweating--as much as possible.. 

• Avoid friction

  Avoid rubbing, touching, or getting friction on your lashes, especially when they're wet. 

• Avoid mascara

  Mascara contains oils that can break down the glue holding your extensions in place. 

• Avoid oil-based products

  Oil-based products can break down the glue in your lash extensions. Use oil-free cleansers and makeup removers. 

• Brush daily

  Brush your lashes daily with a mascara wand to remove debris and keep them looking clean. 

• Use an eyelash cleanser

  Use an eyelash cleanser and cleansing brush REGULARLY to remove dirt, makeup, and oil. 

• Condition your lashes

  Use a nightly lash serum (like Obagi) to keep your lashes conditioned and healthy. 

• Sleep on your back

  Sleep on your back to avoid putting pressure on your lashes.
