Cleansing your lashes tutorial

Follow these simple steps at home to make sure your lashes stay happy and healthy! Regardless of how much makeup you wear, cleansing should be a daily ritual!

1.  Any gentle cleanser is okay to use for cleansing your lashes.  If you are not sure, baby wash (ex: Johnson & Johnson baby wash) will do the trick to remove makeup and cleanse your lashes.  We use it at the beginning of every appointment here!  Remember to cleanse your lashes everyday, otherwise build up between your lashes and extensions can cause infections!

2.  Using your cleanser and water, gently swipe your index and middle finger back and forth across your lashes- don’t be afraid to touch your lashes!  Repeat if there is left over residue.

3.  Do not use any sort of abrasive cloths such as a washcloth, cotton square, Q-tip, cotton cloth, etc. to cleanse your lashes.  These can snag on your lashes and pull out your extensions with your natural lashes.  Bald spot=no eyelash extensions.

4.  Lastly, pat your lashes dry or let air dry and use a clean mascara wand to brush your lashes into place.
