You went to our specialist and had your Latisse lash growth serum and spent months carefully applying it daily without fail. Finally, when you look into the mirror your eyelashes are long, lush and dark. Just like how you have always wished for. Thumbs up! It is not easy to follow a long-term everyday habit, so be proud of yourself! Now, make sure that all your efforts do not go to waste. Here are some easy tips to take care of your newly acquired lushly lashes so that you can enjoy your lashes for many years.
Maintain
Now you can cut back on Latisse applications to go to the maintenance phase. However, it is still vital to apply Latisse at least 3-4 times a week. You should know that if you stop using Latisse entirely, your lashes will go back to the way they used to be.
Condition
Eyelashes are just hair, and they, therefore, need conditioning. There are numerous conditioners on the market, but the best will be using vitamin E oil. Use a cotton swab to apply vitamin E to your lashes both at the top and bottom. You can alternate conditioning day and Latisse maintenance so that you can make it a routine to care for your lashes as well as making it easier for you to remember.
Clean before bedtime
If you wear mascara, make sure to remove it before you got to sleep. Mascara tends to make lashes dry and brittle therefore prone to breakage.
Be careful with the curler
Using an eyelash curler often can put stress on your lashes making them weak. You should, therefore, curl before applying mascara and squeeze with gentle pressure. You can warm your curler before using it with your hands to give you a lasting curl. However, avoid heated curlers. Over time, they can fry your lashes and deprive your lashes of moisture.
The eyes
You have now mastered the eyelashes art, but have neglected the eye area. You need to keep the skin around your eyes moisturized, firm and radiant to have those stunning eyes. You can get prescriptions for eye creams that will improve your skin’s tone and texture, therefore, reducing the appearance of dark circles and fine lines. The skin around your eyes will be brighter.
