In the pursuit of beauty, eyelash extension has become a favorite of many beauty lovers. What is it? Eyelash extension is a semi-permanent beauty technique. Professional eyelash artists will use special glue to glue single or multiple false eyelashes to the original eyelashes one by one, so as to achieve the visual effect of lengthening and thickening the eyelashes, making the eyes instantly full of electricity and bright.

一、How long do eyelash extensions last?

The duration of eyelash extensions is affected by many factors. Generally, a set of eyelash extensions can last for 4-6 weeks. However, if you have frequent daily activities, such as rubbing your eyes frequently, being in a hot and humid environment, or using oily makeup removers, your eyelashes may fall out in about 3 weeks. On the contrary, if you take good care of them, some people can keep their eyelashes for about 8 weeks.

二、Is eyelash extension safe?

Under normal operation, eyelash extension is relatively safe. Professional glue generally meets the safety standards of cosmetics and will not cause direct damage to the eyes. However, if you go to an informal beauty salon and use inferior glue, it is very easy to cause eye allergies, symptoms such as redness, swelling, itching, and stinging, and may even damage the eyelash follicles and affect the healthy growth of the original eyelashes.

三、Postoperative care tips

To maintain new eyelash extensions, first of all, you should avoid oily cleansing products as they will dissolve the glue. Instead, use a mild oil-free makeup remover to gently wipe off the eye makeup. Be gentle when washing your face. Use a towel soaked in warm water to gently press the area around the eyes, and don't rub. Try to touch your eyelashes as little as possible in daily life, and don't pull them with your hands to prevent your eyelashes from falling off prematurely. If your eyelashes become tangled, use a clean eyelash brush to comb them along the direction of their growth.

四、Preoperative preparation points

Before eyelash extension, you must not have any inflammation in your eyes, such as sty, conjunctivitis, etc. You need to wait until you have recovered before making an appointment. You need to remove your makeup in advance to ensure that your eyes are clean and fresh without any residual makeup. If you wear contact lenses, you need to take them off before the operation and replace them with frame glasses to facilitate the operation of the eyelash artist and avoid eye discomfort during the operation. Knowing these will help you to have a smooth journey of eyelash extension and easily have charming eyes.
