The Benefits of a Lash Lift and Tint Treatment
Lashes are the ultimate storyteller. They amplify what’s already beautiful about our eyes and offer a soft yet striking look that can be worn to brunch, weddings, and anywhere else you can think of. If you have always loved a full, volumized lash, there’s no doubt that the impact of a lash lift will conjure up a little extra confidence and save you a lot of time.
How do lash lifts enhance the eye?
You’ve probably tried every makeup method in the book in your quest for long, wispy lashes. So, if you’re thinking about getting a lash lift and tint, there are a few factors you’ll want to consider.
Your eyes will look wider and more awake
Lash lifts are popular for every reason you could possibly think of. But, one of the most common reasons people opt for the lash lift is because it draws attention to and enhances the eyes. Even if you skip the white eyeliner on your waterline, you can guarantee your eyes look slightly more pronounced. The good news is, there’s no such thing as too much eye, and finding a look that serves you is half the fun!
Ready for anything, with little to no makeup, at any moment
Do you love the idea of being ready for the day and makeup free the second you roll out of bed? A simple lift treatment gives you the perfect magnification that you’ve been searching high and low for. No more half-hour make-up sessions or mascara that is flaking off halfway through the day. Plus, the ability to wake up and go with stunning lashes is something that you can definitely get used to!
You'll have the appearance of lashes that are longer and fuller
Whether you’re a falsies during special occasions type of person, or a die-hard mascara fan, you know the exact look you’re going for and you’ll stop at nothing (stocked on lash glue, waterproofing for the pool) to achieve your signature look.
The lash lift will make your lashes instantly look longer through the beautiful curl that the lash lift provides. When the lashes are tinted to a deep black color, they emphasize the length and draw more attention to the eyes. You will be surprised how long your lashes really are!
All lash enhancements, whether via mascara or extensions, are utilized to create the appearance of longer, fuller lashes. And with no mascara bleeding or half-stuck lashes on your lid, you’re free to move through life on your terms without eye makeup stress.
Expectations for your lash lift appointment
When you arrive for your appointment, you can check in with your esthetician and ask them any lingering questions. They will chat with you about what you can expect at your appointment, your skin care regimen, staple products in your routine, and how various ingredients may interact with your lash lift.
Low-maintenance benefits of lash lifts
One of the reasons clients love the lash lift so much is that it is a very low-maintenance service. No more going to a lash extension fill appointment every 2-3 weeks and having to deal with high maintenance lash extensions. Come in for your one hour lash lift appointment and your lashes will be set for the next 6-8 weeks! The appointment is relaxing and goes by so fast.
Customizing the lash lift to get you the results you want
During your lash lift appointment, expect some conversation with your lash artist about the look that you would like to achieve. There are different curl options, all of them beautiful! But, some are going to be a better fit for you depending on your lifestyle, your unique eye shape, and the final result that you’re seeking.
Before and after eyelash lift
Prior to your lash lift, make sure to skip out on any waterproof makeup and avoid wearing strip lashes at least 48 hours before your scheduled appointment. After your appointment, the best way to ensure a great, long-lasting lash lift is to avoid the following:
Heat, saunas, and steam
Oils
Shampoos
Skin care products around the eye area
Makeup around the eye area
Makeup remover wipes
Other facial beauty treatments
Getting sweat in the lashes
Lashes will be malleable for the first 24 hours, so make sure that you don’t sleep on your lashes the night after the treatment or press them into anything like glasses or sunglasses
Taking care of your lashes to preserve their vitality
You can count on your lash lift to draw attention to the beautiful shape and colors of your eyes. And your lashes will depend on you to preserve their state and secure their longevity. While they won’t last forever, with proper maintenance, you can expect the lift to last around six to eight weeks.
It is important to keep the lashes healthy and conditioned after your lift appointment. Using a daily keratin conditioning product will keep your lashes protected and looking their best in between your lash lift appointments. Your esthetician should be able to give you a product recommendation for the daily keratin treatment or should have one on hand for you to purchase.
Ongoing, long-term maintenance for your lash lift
If you want to keep your lashes looking lifted and fabulous for longer, avoid using any products with castor oil around your eyes. If you follow these parameters, you can extend the life of your lash lift.
Types of lash lifts
When it comes to the different kinds of lash lifts, there are two that are highly sought after: lash perms and keratin-infused lash lifts. The lash perm forms a curl pattern through applied chemicals breaking down and recreating new disulfide bonds. Keratin is a protective protein located all around our hair, skin, and nails that encourages strength and shine. During a keratin-infused lash lift session, keratin is added to ensure that your lash lift not only looks beautiful, but keeps your lashes healthy, protected, and strong.
Finding a lash lift specialist that you can trust
As with any service dealing with the eyes, we recommend doing your research to find an experienced lash lift artist that you feel comfortable and confident with. The lash lift is a chemical process, so it is important that the artist you choose has a lot of experience doing lash lifts and can customize the service to your unique lashes while still keeping them healthy and strong. We recommend looking for an artist that specializes in lash lifts, has consistent beautiful before and after pictures, and also has positive client reviews.
