Eye-catching tips for managing your lashes during allergy season
Hey there, my lovely ladies!
Spring has sprung, and with it comes the beauty of allergy season. As someone who loves having her eyelash extensions, I know firsthand how frustrating it can be when allergies strike. But fear not, my darlings! Today, I'm here to share with you my top tips on how to manage your eyelash extensions during allergy season.
1. Keep those eyes clean
First and foremost, make sure to keep your eyes clean during allergy season. Use a gentle cleanser to remove any pollen or other irritants that may have accumulated on your lashes throughout the day, and if your allergies really bother you cleanse twice a day. A great option is to use a foaming lash cleanser, which can help remove any debris while still being gentle on your extensions.
2. Keep your hands off!
It can be tempting to rub your eyes when they're itchy, but doing so can cause serious damage to your extensions. Not only can rubbing your eyes cause your extensions to fall out, but it can also cause damage to your natural lashes. So, resist the urge and find another way to soothe your eyes, such as using a cool compress or taking allergy medication.
3. Avoid mascara and gel/liquid eyeliners
While it may be tempting to add a little extra drama to your lashes during allergy season, these products can actually cause more harm than good. The chemicals in waterproof mascara, liquid eyeliner, and gel eyeliner can break down the adhesive holding your extensions in place, causing them to fall out more quickly. They can also attract pollen and other debris like honey, leading to unnecessary irritions. Stick with a pencil liner, or just skip it altogether and let your extensions do the talking.
4. Schedule touch-ups sooner
If you find that your extensions are falling out more quickly than usual due to allergies, consider scheduling a touch-up appointment sooner than you normally would. This can help keep your lashes looking full and gorgeous throughout allergy season.
5. Use a lash growth serum
Last but not least, consider using a lash growth serum during allergy season. These serums can help promote healthy lash growth, which can help compensate for any lashes that may have fallen out due to allergies. Plus, they can help strengthen your natural lashes, making them more resistant to damage in the future.
So there you have it ladies! With these tips in mind, you'll be able to manage your eyelash extensions with ease during allergy season. Remember to take care of yourself and your beautiful lashes, and you'll be sure to look fabulous all season long!
