They say the eyes are the windows to the soul—so why not give them the perfect frame with stunning, lifted lashes? If you’re tired of dealing with clumpy mascara or constantly needing touch-ups on your lash extensions just to feel put together, a keratin eyelash lift could be the perfect solution to your lash struggles. This treatment offers a natural, low-maintenance solution for effortlessly gorgeous lashes, letting you wake up ready to face the world without the fuss.
Here’s what you need to know before your first appointment!
1. What is a Keratin Lash Lift?
Think of a keratin eyelash lift as a non-invasive lash miracle! It enhances your natural lashes by lifting and curling them from the root, giving your eyes that “wide-awake” look without needing mascara or eyelash extensions. The treatment uses keratin, a protein that helps strengthen and condition the lashes, leaving them looking fuller, longer, and healthier. The best part? It’s your natural lashes being elevated to their fullest potential—no falsies required! You get a dramatic lash look that can last for weeks with minimal upkeep.
2. How Long Does It Last?
The beauty of a keratin eyelash lift is its long-lasting effect. Unlike mascara that has to be washed off every night, or extensions that require touch-ups every few weeks, a lash lift lasts around 6–8 weeks. That’s right—nearly two months of beautifully curled lashes without any effort! How long it lasts depends on your natural lash growth cycle, but typically, you can expect to enjoy gorgeous lashes for a couple of months before they gradually return to their original shape. Perfect for vacations, busy schedules, or if you just want to save time on your daily beauty routine!
3. Aftercare Tips: Protect Your Lash Investment
While a keratin eyelash lift is fairly low-maintenance, there’s a little bit of aftercare needed to make sure your lift lasts as long as possible. Here are some quick tips:
-
- No water or steam for the first 24 hours: This means no showers that drench your lashes or splashing your face with water right after the treatment. Your lashes need time to set!
- Avoid makeup and mascara for the first day: The less you touch your lashes within the first 24 hours, the better the lift will hold.
- Resist the urge to rub your eyes: We get it—rubbing your eyes can feel so satisfying, but you’ll want to avoid this to keep your lashes looking flawless for weeks.
After the initial day, your lashes are pretty much fuss-free. You can resume your usual routine, including applying mascara (although with a lash lift, you may find you don’t need it!).
4. Suitability for All Lash Types
Short, straight, or thin lashes? No problem! One of the best things about a keratin lash lift is that it can be customised to suit your unique lash type. The lash technician can adjust the size of the lifting rod to create different levels of curl, making it perfect for those who want a subtle lift or a more dramatic, eye-popping effect. Whether your lashes are naturally long or on the shorter side, the keratin lift will give them a natural yet noticeable boost that complements your eyes.
5. Difference from Lash Extensions
If you’ve been weighing up lash extensions versus a keratin eyelash lift, here’s the scoop. While eyelash extensions add artificial lashes to your natural ones for length and volume, a keratin lash treatment simply works with what you already have. Extensions require more frequent upkeep and can sometimes lead to lash fall-out if not maintained properly.
A keratin lash lift, on the other hand, is much lower maintenance, with fewer side effects, and doesn’t involve glue or adhesives. It’s ideal for anyone who wants to enhance their natural lashes without adding extra weight or needing a fill-in every few weeks.
Now that you’re clued up on what to expect, all that’s left is to sit back, relax, and let the magic happen! Book an appointment with our beauty spa in Singapore today to give your lashes the boost they deserve!
