Blepharitis & Eyelash Extension Aftercare

 
Blepharitis is a common inflammation of the eyelids that many of our clients approach us about. You should never feel ashamed if someone tells you that you have blepharitis as it is extremely common amongst many.

People with blepharitis may experience a gritty or burning sensation in their eyes, excessive tearing, itching, red or swollen eyelids, dry eyes or crusting of the eyelids.

What can you do to prevent being diagnosed with blepharitis? Regular cleaning and good eyelid hygiene prevents blepharitis as blepharitis is a result of improper eye cleaning.

For our lash clients, here are a few important tips to know for your eyelash extensions aftercare:
  • Do not get lashes wet for the first 24 hours. 
  • Do not use steam or sauna room for the first 48 hours. 
  • Do not use waterproof mascara. 
  • Do not use eye creams or makeup remover that contains oil. 
  • Do not use manual eyelash curler. Use a heated lash curler. 
  • Avoid rubbing extensions when washing face. Pat face dry. 
  • Use cotton swab to remove eye makeup. 
  • Do not perm or tint eyelash extensions. 
  • Never pull of extensions. This will also pull out your natural lashes.
