Extend Lashes Aftercare
Our Extend treatment uses individual lash extensions to extend your natural lashes. The result? Longer, fuller lashes for up to 8 weeks. Often known as classic or individual lashes, this treatment gives you a natural and flawless look – perfect if you want to add depth and length to your natural lashes.
After your Extend Lash Extensions treatment, we recommend professional top-ups every 2-3 weeks. It’s because your natural lashes are constantly shedding, we lose around 2-5 natual lashes every day. An infill treatment adds extra individual extensions to the places where your natural lashes have progressed through their lifecycle, keeping your Extend lashes in immaculate condition.
How to look after your extend lashes in the first 24/48 hours after treatment
To help your new lashes settle in to place, it’s important to keep your lashes dry for the first 24 hours after treatment, and to avoid swimming, steam and saunas for the first 48 hours.
What aftercare products can I use with extend lash extensions?
You should use oil-free products after a classic extensions treatment to avoid compromising your lash extension bonds.

Can you get your extend lashes wet?
For the first 24 hours after your Extend treatment, it’s essential to keep them dry. You should avoid all steam, saunas and swimming until 48 hours after as it can take up to 2 days for the adhesive to fully set. After that, it’s completely safe, just remember pat to your lashes dry with a towel or tissue and gently brush with a mascara wand.

How do I clean volume lashes?
To clean your lashes, we recommend using our Lash & Lid Foaming Cleanser regularly, at least 2-3 times a week or daily if you wear eye make-up. For best results, follow these steps:

- Using a Lash Cleansing Brush, gently work the product through the lashes from root to tip
