How Long Does a Lash Lift Last?

The effect of a lash lift typically lasts between 6 to 8 weeks, but its exact duration depends on the natural lash growth cycle. Since each lash grows and sheds at a different rate, new, naturally straight lashes gradually replace the lifted ones, causing the lifted effect to fade over time.

What Affects the Longevity of a Lash Lift?

🔹 Lash Growth Cycle – Just like hair on the head, lashes grow in cycles. During the procedure, not all lashes are at the same stage of growth, so over time, they naturally shed and get replaced, gradually reducing the lifting effect.

🔹 Lash Type and Structure –
✔ Thicker, stronger lashes tend to hold the lift longer,
✔ Finer, more delicate lashes may return to their natural state more quickly.

🔹 Daily Care Routine – How you care for your lashes after the treatment significantly impacts how long the lift lasts. Certain habits can shorten the longevity of the effect, such as:
❌ Frequent exposure to water, steam, or sauna,
❌ Using oil-based makeup removers,
❌ Rubbing your eyes excessively.

🔹 Lash Products Used –
✔ Lash serums can help strengthen lashes, improving their condition and potentially prolonging the lift’s duration.
✔ Avoiding waterproof mascara can prevent excessive rubbing and pulling during makeup removal, helping maintain the effect longer.

How to Extend the Life of a Lash Lift?

✅ The first 24 hours after the procedure are crucial –

Avoid getting your lashes wet, including exposure to steam, saunas, and pools,
Do not use oil-based cosmetics, creams, or serums around the eyes,
Avoid touching or rubbing your lashes to allow the lift to set properly.

✅ Gentle daily care –

Avoid rubbing your eyes or sleeping face-down,
Use a mild, oil-free makeup remover,
Apply a lash conditioner or serum to keep lashes hydrated and strong.

✅ Makeup After a Lash Lift –

Mascara is optional, as the lifted effect already makes lashes appear longer and more curled,
If you choose to use mascara, opt for non-waterproof formulas to avoid aggressive removal, which could weaken the lifted lashes.

How Often Can You Repeat a Lash Lift?

💡 Ideally, every 6-8 weeks, once the natural lash growth cycle has replaced most lifted lashes.
💡 To maintain consistently lifted lashes, it is recommended to refresh the treatment every 2 months.
