Lashes
Semi-permanent lashes: aftercare that works
The habits that decide how long your set lasts.

The first 24 hours
Keep them dry. No showers straight onto the face, no steam, no swimming. The adhesive needs a day to fully cure.
Cleaning without losing lashes
Oil is the enemy: oily cleansers and makeup removers break down the adhesive. Use oil-free products around the eyes and pat rather than rub.
Skip the mascara
You chose lashes so you wouldn't need it, and mascara is the fastest way to shorten a set's life. If you must, keep it off the roots.
Top-ups and removal
A full set is £55 and takes about 90 minutes. When it's time, have them removed professionally (£10, 15 minutes) rather than picking; pulling extensions takes your own lashes with them.
