Why doesn't my lash lift last?

Why doesn't a lash lift last?

A lash lift is a reliable method of adding volume to natural lashes that usually lasts up to 6 to 8 weeks. However, there are cases where the result does not last as expected or wears off more quickly. Various factors can affect this, including preparation, technique and aftercare. Here are the most common reasons why a lash lift does not last as planned:


1. Incorrect preparation

Inadequate cleaning of the eyelashes:
Before treatment, the eyelashes must be completely free of makeup, oils or dirt. Residues on the eyelashes prevent the lifting products from working properly and shaping the hairs.

Oily or greasy skin:
People with oily skin or oily eyelids often find that the lift does not last as long. The skin's natural oils can impair the effect of the lifting and fixing lotions.


2. Inadequate lifting products or technique

Quality of the Lash Lifting Set:
High-quality lifting sets are crucial for a good result. Poor quality or expired products may not lift the eyelashes sufficiently or may shorten the effect.

Error in exposure time:
The exposure time of the lifting and fixing lotions must be strictly adhered to. If the exposure time is too short, the eyelashes will not curl properly, while if the exposure time is too long, the eyelashes will become weak and brittle.

Incorrect application of the silicone pads:
If the silicone pads are not placed correctly or the eyelashes are unevenly distributed on the pad, the lifting will not work evenly. Each eyelash must be positioned correctly to achieve the desired effect.


3. Eyelash structure and health

Condition of the eyelashes:
Very straight, thick or unruly lashes may be harder to shape and may require stronger products or longer processing times. The lifting effect may not last as long on such lashes.

Damaged eyelashes:
Eyelashes that are already weakened by excessive styling or previous treatments are less likely to respond to the lift. Damaged or brittle eyelashes lose their shape more quickly.


4. Inadequate aftercare

Contact with water or moisture:
In the first 24 to 48 hours after the lift, the eyelashes must not get wet. Water, steam or sweat can impair the lifting effect before the eyelashes are completely fixed.

Use of oil-containing products:
Oil-based makeup removers or care products can weaken the curl of the eyelashes because they can dissolve the lifting products.


5. Hormonal influences

Pregnancy or hormonal changes:
Hormonal fluctuations, such as those that occur during pregnancy, breastfeeding or due to hormonal contraceptives, can change the hair structure. This can make the lash lift less effective or wear off more quickly.


6th eyelash growth cycle

Natural growth cycle of eyelashes:
Eyelashes renew themselves every 6 to 8 weeks. If the lift is performed at a time when many eyelashes are about to fall out, the results may not last as long. New eyelashes grow back without curl and gradually weaken the effect.


7. Temperature and environmental influences

Heat and humidity:
Extreme temperatures or high humidity, such as in the sauna, during hot showers or when swimming in chlorinated water, can weaken the lifting effect more quickly.


8. Individual differences

Different reactions:
Everyone reacts differently to a lash lift. For some, the effect lasts for 8 weeks without any problems, while for others the results fade more quickly, even when the same techniques and products are used.


What can you do to make the lash lift last longer?

  • Use a high-quality lash lifting set: Make sure that the products used are of good quality and suitable for your eyelash type.
  • Follow the aftercare recommendations: keep the eyelashes dry for the first 48 hours and avoid oily products so as not to impair the lifting effect.
  • Care for your eyelashes: After the lift, use a nourishing eyelash serum or mask to strengthen your eyelashes and promote their health.
  • Avoid excessive heat: Avoid saunas, hot showers and steam baths immediately after the lift to protect the results.

Conclusion

Although a lash lift usually lasts several weeks, there are many factors that can affect its durability. Inadequate preparation, incorrect application or improper aftercare can reduce the effect. However, with high-quality products, careful execution and the right care afterwards, you can achieve long-lasting, beautiful curl in your eyelashes.
