Lash Lift in San Diego and La Jolla
Let's face it, putting on make-up every day is time-consuming. Mascara smudges and leaves clumpy residue, and applying strip lashes is a hassle.
A lash lift is perfect for anyone looking to cut their "getting ready" time in half while achieving a vibrant, fresh look with zero effort. Ideal for busy women, travelers, minimalists, moms, businesswomen, glam queens, and low-maintenance beauties, lash lifts provide a stunning look without the daily struggle.

What to Expect During Your First Lash Lift
When you arrive for your first lash lift, you'll lie down on a comfortable bed, similar to the ones used for waxing. Unlike a waxing appointment, you won't be able to see anything or use your eyes (or phone) during the session. While it's not painful, it can be a bit uncomfortable, and your eyes may tear up slightly. Fortunately, this won't affect the process.
The Appointment Steps:
Preparation: Silicone pads are placed on your closed eyelids. Your lashes are lifted, and a serum is applied to break down the protein in the lashes, allowing them to take shape on the shield.
Tinting: After the lashes are molded, the tint is applied. The silicone pads are then removed.
Will a lash lift damage your lashes?
Lash lifts will not damage your lashes if done properly. Getting your lashes lifted usually motivates you to grow longer lashes and take better care of them naturally. I tell my clients to hydrate their lashes after a lift with coconut oil.
How long will the results last?
Results of a lash lift and tint last about eight to twelve weeks.

After Care
Initial 24 Hours: Keep your lashes completely dry to ensure the lift sets properly; avoid water, steam, and swimming pools. Refrain from using mascara and all waterproof cosmetics during this period. It's crucial to sleep on your back or side to keep your lashes off the pillow.
First 48 Hours: Continue to handle your lashes gently. Avoid any actions that might stress them, such as rubbing, pulling, or using eyelash curlers, which can weaken and damage the lashes.
General Care: Always remove eye makeup gently using a non-oily makeup remover to prevent any damage. If necessary, brush your lashes gently with a lash brush to maintain neatness and separate any clumps.
Avoid Certain Products: For the first two days post-treatment, avoid applying any oils around your eyes. Oils can interfere with the effectiveness of the lash lift.
Ongoing Maintenance: Begin conditioning your lashes one week after the treatment to keep them healthy and prolong the effects. Use coconut or castor oil, applying it twice a week. If you aim to promote lash growth, consider applying castor oil nightly.
Long-Term Care: Schedule your next lash lift and tint appointment no sooner than 8 weeks following the last treatment. If you experience any redness or irritation, apply a cool damp cotton compress to the area. Seek medical advice if symptoms persist for more than 24 hours.
Maintaining your
lash lift:
Keep them dry: After your lash lift in La Jolla or San Diego, ensure your eyelashes stay dry for 24 to 48 hours. Avoid showers and any moisture to allow the curl to set properly.
No pillow cuddling: Avoid touching your eyelashes for at least 48 hours. Sleeping on your back can help prevent any accidental damage or compression of your new lash curl.
Using mascara: You don’t need mascara to look great after a lash lift, but if you prefer, wait 48 hours and use only oil-free mascara to enhance your lashes without compromising the lift.
Be aware of allergies: Post-lash lift, use oil-free eye makeup remover to avoid irritation or allergies. Choose removers without parabens for the safest results.
Condition your eyelashes: Regular conditioning is key to maintaining the beautiful results of your lash lift in San Diego or La Jolla. Consult your beauty technician for the best products to nourish and protect your lashes.
