Eyelash Extensions Aftercare: How to Take Care of Your Lash Extensions for Long-Lasting, Beautiful Results

Getting eyelash extensions is a great way to enhance your natural beauty with fuller, longer lashes that require minimal daily makeup. However, once your lash extensions are applied, proper eyelash extensions aftercare is essential to ensure they last as long as possible and stay looking flawless. At Salvation Beauty Ink in Pembroke Pines, FL, we guide all of our clients on how to take care of their lash extensions so they can enjoy beautiful, long-lasting results.

The First 24–48 Hours After Eyelash Extensions

The first 24 to 48 hours after your lash appointment are the most crucial. During this period, the adhesive is curing, and any exposure to moisture can weaken the bond.

Do:

  • Keep lashes completely dry.

Avoid:

  • Steam, saunas, pools, showers, and even heavy sweating.

  • Do not touch, rub, or pull at your new lashes.

This short waiting period will make a huge difference in how well your lashes hold.

Daily Eyelash Extensions Care Routine

Once your lashes are set, follow these steps every day to maintain their look and health:

1. Brush Lashes Every Morning

Use a clean spoolie brush to gently comb through your lashes. This prevents tangling and keeps them looking neat and full.

2. Avoid Rubbing or Sleeping on Your Lashes

Try to sleep on your back or side, avoiding direct pressure on your lashes. Rubbing or pulling can break the bond and cause premature shedding.

3. Clean Lashes Daily

Oil, dirt, and makeup residue can build up on your lashes. Use a lash-safe cleanser (never regular soap) to gently clean your lashes every day. This keeps them fresh and extends their life.

4. Skip Mascara and Oil-Based Products

  • Do not apply mascara to lash extensions. Mascara can clump the lashes and weaken the adhesive.

  • Avoid oil-based makeup removers, creams, and serums around the eye area, as oil breaks down lash adhesive.

How Often to Get Lash Fills

Your natural lashes shed in cycles. To keep your extensions looking full, we recommend scheduling a lash fill appointment every 2–3 weeks. This will replace any lashes that have shed naturally and keep your set looking fresh and even.
