Properly cleaning your lashes after extensions not only helps keep them clean and beautiful, but also prolongs the life of your extensions. Rachel Beauty Bar spa will guide you on how to care for your lashes at home in a simple but extremely effective way.

Why Do You Need to Clean Your Eyes After Eyelash Extensions?

Prevent dirt and bacteria from accumulating: The base of the eyelashes is an area that easily collects dust and oil, causing inflammation if not cleaned.
Keep lashes soft and fluffy: Eyelash extensions will not clump or tangle if cleaned regularly.
Extend the life of eyelash extensions: Proper cleaning helps the glue hold the lashes stronger, limiting premature eyelash loss.
Comfortable feeling: No more feeling of heaviness or itching around the eyes after surgery.

Steps to Safely Clean Your Eyes After Eyelash Extensions

1. Use Specialized Cleaning Solution

Use a product that does not contain oil or alcohol. Soak a cotton swab or brush with the solution and gently wipe the base of the eyelashes. Do not let the solution get into your eyes.

2. Brush Your Eyelashes Every Day

Use a special eyelash brush to keep lashes neat. Don't brush too hard or too often.

3. Wash Your Face Gently With a Mild Cleanser

Choose an oil-free cleanser. When washing your face, avoid direct contact with your lashes.

Notes After Eyelash Extensions

Do not let your lashes get wet for the first 24–48 hours.
Limit eye makeup , especially mascara and non-specialized eyeliner.
Do not use eyelash conditioner containing essential oils as it may cause the glue to come off.
Brush lashes regularly to keep them even and tangle-free.

Tips to Keep Eyelash Extensions Long-Lasting Naturally

Regularly condition lashes to increase the strength of real lashes.
Avoid direct sunlight, swimming pool, sea for at least 6 hours after eyelash extensions.
Wear sunglasses when outdoors to protect your lashes from dust and wind.
