Clean your dang lashes!
Yes, you’ve heard me say it a million times, but it’s true! You’re natural oils and dirt, dead skin cells, makeup, etc will make lashes fall off prematurely. It can also clog your lash follicles making it difficult for new lashes to grow.
Make sure you wash your lashes BEFORE your fill!! New lashes WILL NOT adhere to dirty lashes period.
Check products for oil.
Check your face products for oil! This includes skincare, AND makeup! If your goal is bomb lash retention, ditch the products with any of the first ingredients including an oil.
Make sure to Brush your lashes into place after they get wet and DAILY.
Brushing Lashes dry will help them dry faster and dry in place so you don’t end up with that one lash that goes sideways or tangled lashes that pull and hurt! Keeping the lash extensions in the proper position will help them last longer!
Track your lash cycle
Yes, you have a lash cycle. If you didn’t know, now you know. Every 4-6 weeks you will notice you will lose a dramatic amount of lashes. This is totally normal!

We shed just like other mammals.
