Why Mascara is Not Needed with Eyelash Extensions
Here’s the T: Typically, after guests get their first full set of lashes, they’ve got mascara in hand, ready to chuck it in the nearest trash bin. Why? Custom eyelash extensions are everything they’ve always wished their mascara was!
Lash extensions are a one-stop POWERFUL shop for:
- length
- fullness
- rich color
- curl
- volume
- definition
The list could go on and on!
And here’s the real kicker: Your custom lash extensions will look 100x MORE FLAWLESS than any mascara! Minus those icky clumps, flakes or smudges.
TIP: If you used to love the look of a few coats of mascara, ask your stylist to use our silk lashes! This lash type provides a semi-matte satin finish and the flawless appearance of a bold sweep of mascara.
How to Wear Mascara with Lash Extensions…If You Must 😉
