My Lash Lift Experience

The world has gone mad; and as we try to navigate our new reality, I have decided to remain positive and hopeful by taking a mental break and pretending everything is still as it was. So let me share my lash lift story with you.

Here are some pros and cons of my lash lift experience; maybe these will answer the  question of “would you do it again?”
First off, let me say that laying down for an hour can sound relaxing at first, but for some of us it can cause a bit of anxiety since you won’t be able to open your eyes for about an hour. If you have hooded eyelids which I do, the technician might have some difficulty applying the treatment to your lash area.

What does the treatment entail? A gentle adhesive is used to curl your lashes and have them rest on a silicone base. This happens for two rounds of about 12-14 minutes.

In the end my lashes looked nice, but nothing to write home about. Just when I decided this wasn’t for me, I was getting ready for a night out with some friends and was applying my makeup. When I got to the mascara part, boy was I blown away. My lashes looked almost like fakes or extensions. The mascara really took the treatment to the next level.
Will I ever get this done again? For sure.
Did it make an amazing difference? Yes, Indeed.
A few tips that I learned: try to use an oil free eye makeup remover like Estee Lauder GENTLE EYE MAKEUP REMOVER. I have also been using an oil free mascara as well. Not sure if it is helping but so far, I feel like the lash lift has lasted longer than expected.
