Always show up to your appointment with clean lashes. Use a cleansing brush for soft and easy cleansing (available in store) or gently cleanse them. This assures that all your natural bodily oils, makeup, dust and debris are cleansed off. If your lashes are not squeaky clean, it's like trying to stick a sticker to a dusty window. It doesn't stick well. The cleaner your lashes are, the better your retention will be.

Don't drink caffeine prior to your lash appointment. Caffeine makes your eyes fluttery which makes it harder for me to place lashes and slows down the process. Fluttery eyes also allow fumes to sneak in that can cause chemical burns in your eye - aka when your eyes turn bright pink. To avoid all this, save the latte for after your appointment!

Try not to get your lashes wet or introduce them to steam for 24 hours after your appointment - this will ensure the adhesive is fully dry.

After 24 hours, cleanse your lashes using a lash cleanser and a lash cleansing brush. Especially if you applied makeup onto your eyes.

Don't brush your lashes when they are wet!

Use oil-free products on and around your eyes. Oil breaks down glue, which causes poor retention.

Don't touch your lashes with your fingers as they have oil on them. Use your mascara wand to touch them.

Mascara breaks down the adhesive of your lash extensions, closes all your volume fans and sticks to the base of the extension. It's best to keep your lashes free of unnecessary build up!
