EYELASH EXTENSIONS - AFTERCARE

You can and should get your lashes wet after the first 24 hours. Clients who use a lash shampoo when they wash their lashes have better retention. You can purchase my Yx Lash Shampoo in an aftercare kit at your appointment for £10.00. I recommend using this 2-3 times a week in the shower.
If you use make up around your eyes, do so as little as possible. Remove it thoroughly before bedtime. I recommend this product for make up removal.
Avoid cotton pads for removing eye make up as the lint can get caught in the extensions. Instead, opt for a cotton bud. Do this before using my Yx Lash Shampoo.
See how to use my Yx Lash Shampoo here.
Do not use mascara on your extensions. Please only use is sparingly on the bottom lashes to avoid it transferring to your extensions.
Avoid oily skincare products around your eye area. Any kind of oil will cause premature fallout.
I like to use a warm cotton flannel around the eye area for light exfoliation. This is effective as it prevents dry skin ending up in your lashes.
Gently brush your lashes every morning and after showering.
Avoid saunas, steam rooms and sun-beds (especially in the first 24 hours).
Do not tint, perm or use eyelash curlers on your extensions.
Book your infills in advance: eyelash extensions require maintenance every 2-3 weeks.
Try to sleep on your back so that your lashes do not press into the pillow.
Please do not rub, pull or pick your extensions.

PLEASE NOTE

(Unfortunately!) Lash Extensions are not permanent, they need regular maintenance. Most of my clients have infills every 2 weeks, 3 weeks is the maximum.
Extensions may not fall out evenly; it is common to have one eye hold up better than the other. If this happens you can always book a mini infill here.
It’s normal to notice fall-out within the first few days. You may find lashes on your pillow, or see them on your cheek. Please do not panic - this is normal. Be sure to follow the aftercare above for the best retention.
Some people have better retention than others due to natural oils in their skin.
Other factors that can affect retention include medication and hormonal changes.

INFILLS

Please your infills in advance: most of my clients come every 2 weeks and tend to ensure they have at least 2 - 3 infills appointments booked in with me to avoid not being able to get a slot that suits their schedule.
You can book your infills at www.yasminlashes.as.me
Lash extensions will not stick to dirty lashes so please ensure you come to your appointment with clean lashes for the best retention achievable.
I am typically fully booked 3 weeks in advance, so please make sure you book at least 2-3 infills ahead of time to avoid missing a slot that suits you. You can see my working hours here.
