Do you ever wish you had those super-perfect, Disney princess-style fluttering eyelashes? Have you been admiring other people’s luscious lashes and wishing you had the same natural beauty? Well, you may not realize that many of these people are wearing eyelash extensions!
One of the most popular beauty treatments around today, eyelash extensions can be a fab way to have picture-perfect lashes all day long. No need for mascara with these babies! But what exactly are these extensions, and are they worth getting?
The way eyelash extensions work is, a specially trained beautician will glue the false lashes directly onto your natural lashes with special glue. The beautician will apply each lash individually, so a full set of new lashes can take up to 2 hours to apply. However, once you have a set and are simply applying a top-up, the process is much quicker.
In order to take proper care of your eyelash extensions, you should avoid getting them wet for the first 24-48 hours after your appointment. After that, you should make sure you don’t use any oil-based products while washing or moisturizing your face, as the oil can dissolve the eyelash glue and they will fall out faster.
The best thing about eyelash extensions is, you wake up pretty much ready to go! You have to be a little careful when sleeping, but you get used to it quite quickly. Imagine waking up with a full fluttering set of lashes, no mascara required!
