How to keep your lash extensions fluffy between appointments

Freshly applied lash extensions look soft, separated and full. A few simple habits help you keep that look between appointments.

1. Wash them every day

Oil, makeup and everyday residue can make extensions stick together. Washing them daily helps keep them light and separated.

2. Dry them well

After rinsing, pat gently with a lint-free towel or let them air-dry. Avoid rubbing your extensions with a regular towel.

3. Brush them every day

Once dry, brush your extensions with a clean spoolie. Replace or clean your spoolie often.

4. Protect them while you sleep

When possible, avoid sleeping face down so your extensions are not pressed against the pillow.

5. Keep up with your fills

Natural lashes shed and grow in cycles, and extensions fall out with them. That is why regular fills with your artist keep your set full.

6. Keep oil away from your extensions

Many lash artists recommend avoiding oil-based products near extensions. Check the labels of what you use around your eyes.

Simple, consistent care makes a big difference. Your extensions will thank you.
