A lash lift is a gentle and low maintenance treatment that suits many people, but like all beauty treatments, it may not be suitable for everyone. Before every lash lift appointment it is important to assess your natural lashes and eye condition to make sure a lash lift is suitable for you. Here are some situations where a lash lift may not be recommended, or where we may suggest waiting before having the treatment. 

One of the most common questions we get asked is how long a lash lift lasts and how often you need to come back for a new treatment. A lash lift is designed to be a low maintenance treatment that enhances your natural lashes without the need for daily curling or regular infills. For most clients, a lash lift lasts between six to eight weeks, depending on your natural lash cycle and how you care for your lashes after the treatment. 

One of the most common questions clients ask after getting a lash lift is whether they can still wear mascara. The short answer is yes, you can wear mascara with a lash lift. However, many clients find that they do not need mascara as often because their lashes already look darker, lifted and more defined after the treatment. If you do want to wear mascara, there are a few things to keep in mind to maintain your lash lift results.

You should avoid mascara for the first 24 hours after your lash lift. During this time, your lashes are still setting into their new shape, and mascara or moisture can affect the lift. After the first 24 hours, you can wear mascara as normal. (If you’re not sure about after car, you can read about it in our guide at the end). 

If you choose to wear mascara after a lash lift, it is best to use a gentle, non waterproof mascara. Waterproof mascara can be harder to remove and may require more running around the eyes, which can cause the lift to drop faster. A gentle mascara that is easy to remove helps maintain your lash lift for longer. 

If you are deciding between a lash lift and eyelash extensions, the right choice really depends on your lifestyle, how much maintenance you want, and the kind of look you prefer. Many clients who visit our Carlton studio ask this question, so here is a simple guide to help you decide which option may suit you best.

Many clients ask if a lash lift works on short lashes. The answer is yes, but the result depends on your natural lash length, thickness and growth direction. A lash lift works by lifting your natural lashes from the root, so even shorter lashes can appear more visible, more lifted and more defined after the treatment. If you are not sure whether your lashes are long enough for a lash lift, a consultation can help determine what result you can expect.

If you are thinking about getting a lash lift for the first time, it is completely normal to feel a little unsure about what to expect. Many first-time clients ask how the process works, how long it takes and what they should do before their appointment.

A lash lift is a gentle treatment that lifts your natural lashes from the root to create a longer, more open eye appearance without eyelash extensions. The result is natural, low maintenance and suitable for everyday wear.
