This summer has been HOT! I hate trying to put mascara on when it’s hot outside and as someone who knows the struggle of trying to remove waterproof mascara, I’m not a fan.

This month we’re talking lash lifts!

“Are they extensions?”

This is the question we get the most often. And the best part is, they’re NOT!

A lash lift uses your own, natural lashes and enhances them. It is a semi-permanent curl of your lashes.

We use a silicone rod that is glued to your eyelid with a water-soluble glue. We then glue your lashes up to the rod. This is what holds the curl in your lashes.

Next, we apply the lifting solution to just the base of the lashes. The setting solution is then placed on the lashes after the lifting solution is removed. After removing the setting solution, we let a conditioning serum sit on your lashes for a few minutes just to help keep the integrity of your lashes.

At this point, you can do a tint of your lashes or not. When we tint your lashes, we are using a semi-permanent coloring to darken your lash hair. Our clients with blonde/lighter lashes LOVE this service alone as well as coupled with the lash lift.

I love lifting lashes in the summer time because then you don’t have to fuss with mascara if you don’t want to. Your lashes are already good to go for the pool, lake, beach or wherever your summer travels take you!
