Top Tips to Maximize Lash Retention with the Right Tools

Achieving flawless lash retention isn’t just about skill—it’s about using the right tools and following a detailed process. Here’s a comprehensive guide to the essential steps and products to ensure every lash application lasts longer and looks stunning.

Whipped Cream Lash Cleanser and Other Pre-treatment

Steps

Start with a Thorough Cleanser
Before you even think about applying lash extensions, a clean base is crucial.
- Why It’s Important: Natural oils, makeup, and debris on natural lashes can weaken the adhesive bond.
- Recommended Product: Use a gentle, oil-free cleanser like whipped cream lash cleanser to remove any residue. Follow up with a lash primer to prepare the lashes for maximum adhesive performance.

Use a High-Quality Pre-Treatment Solution
Pre-treatment solutions help dehydrate the natural lashes and create a better bonding surface.
- Why It’s Important: It removes excess oils and balances pH levels for optimal adhesive performance.
- How to Use: Apply a small amount of lash primer with a lint-free applicator directly to the natural lashes.

Choose the Right Adhesive for Each Stage

Apply Lash Extensions with Precision

Seal the Bond with a Lash Sealant
After application, use the super bonder to lock in the adhesive and protect the lashes.

    Proper Aftercare

    This is the key to maintaining lash retention. Tips here:

    • Avoid Water for 24 Hours: No washing, swimming, or sauna during this period to allow the adhesive to fully cure.
    • Use Lash Cleansers Regularly: Recommend oil-free cleansers like whipped cream lash cleanser to prevent buildup and maintain lash health.
    • Avoid Rubbing or Pulling Lashes: This can cause premature fallout or damage to natural lashes.

    Performing regular touch-ups is necessary. Lash extensions naturally shed with the lash growth cycle. Encourage clients to schedule fills every 2-3 weeks to maintain a full, fresh look.
