Ideal Preparation Before Your Appointment

Author: Noël Perrin March 15, 2025

To fully enjoy your eyelash extension session at Luxelashbar, careful preparation is essential. Here are our professional tips to arrive relaxed and ensure optimal results.

Before the Session

Avoid eye makeup and moisturizing creams around the eye area on the day of your appointment. Greasy residues reduce the adhesion of the glue. If you wear contact lenses, prefer glasses that day. A shower or bath is recommended the night before, as you will need to avoid water for 24 to 48 hours after the application.

On the Day

Arrive with a clean face and no mascara. Our technicians will cleanse your natural lashes with a gentle shampoo before starting. Wear comfortable clothing and avoid turtlenecks that could rub against your new lashes. A coffee or light tea is allowed, but avoid very hot drinks just before.

After the Application

Do not wet your lashes for the first 24 hours. Avoid saunas, steam rooms, and steam baths. Gently brush your lashes every morning with a clean brush. Use a specific mascara for extensions, without oil. Regular maintenance every 3 to 4 weeks is recommended to maintain a perfect volume.

For any questions, our team is available by phone at +33 (0)4 94 25 22 47 or by email at info@luxelashbar.com.

Hello Alix, yes absolutely, choose an oil-free and alcohol-free makeup remover. Avoid wipes that can snag the extensions. Have a nice day!

How Long Do Eyelash Extensions Last?

Eyelash extensions typically last 3 to 4 weeks, depending on your natural lash cycle and maintenance. A fill is recommended every 2 to 3 weeks to maintain an optimal appearance.

Do Extensions Damage My Natural Lashes?

No, when applied by a trained professional using quality products, extensions do not damage your natural lashes. Strict adherence to hygiene standards and proper application ensures the health of your lashes.

Safety

Can I Wear Mascara with Extensions?

It is not recommended to use regular mascara, as it can weaken the adhesive and weigh down the extensions. Opt for a special extension-safe mascara, oil-free and water-based, and remove it gently.

Allergies to the adhesive are rare but possible. We use a hypoallergenic, formaldehyde-free adhesive. A patch test can be performed 48 hours before the first application if you have sensitive skin.
