Getting a lash lift is a fantastic way to enhance your natural lashes, giving them a beautiful curve without the need for extensions or daily curling. However, proper aftercare is essential to maintain their health and longevity. Here are some key tips I give my clients on how to take good care of your natural lashes after a lash lift:
1. Avoid Water for 24 Hours
After your lash lift, it's crucial to keep your lashes dry for at least 24 hours. This allows the lift to set properly. Avoid showering, swimming, or any activities that may expose your lashes to moisture.
2. Skip the Eye Makeup
Give your lashes a break from mascara and eyeliner for the first 24-48 hours post-treatment. This helps prevent any potential irritation and allows your lashes to settle into their new shape.
3. Sleep Position Matters: After your lash lift, be mindful of how you sleep, especially on the first night. Avoid sleeping on your face, as this can cause your newly lifted lashes to become misshapen or stick to your eyelids. If you wake up and find your lashes looking funky, don’t hesitate to reach out to me for assistance in fixing them!

4. Use a Gentle Cleanser
When you do resume washing your face, opt for a gentle, oil-free cleanser. Avoid products containing oils, as these can break down the lifting solution and affect the results.
5. Brush Your Lashes
Invest in a clean spoolie brush( I always give one to my clients) to gently comb through your lashes daily. This helps keep them separated and prevents any clumping, ensuring they look their best.
6. Avoid Heat
Keep your lashes away from direct heat sources, such as saunas, steam rooms, or even hairdryers. Excessive heat can weaken the lift and damage your natural lashes.
7. Moisturize with Care
Consider using a lash serum or a nourishing oil (like castor oil) to keep your lashes hydrated. However, apply it sparingly and avoid the roots, as too much product can weigh them down.
8. Schedule Regular Touch-Ups
To maintain the best results, consider scheduling touch-up appointments every 6-8 weeks. This ensures your lashes remain beautifully lifted and healthy.
9. Be Gentle
Finally, always be gentle with your lashes. Avoid rubbing your eyes or pulling on your lashes when removing makeup. Treat them with care to keep them looking stunning.
Conclusion
Taking care of your natural lashes after a lash lift is essential for maintaining their health and appearance. By following these simple aftercare tips, you can enjoy beautiful, lifted lashes for weeks to come. Embrace your new look and feel confident every day!
