What is a Lash Lift?
A lash lift is a semi-permanent cosmetic treatment designed to enhance the appearance of natural eyelashes by curling and lifting them from the root, creating a fuller, longer, and more defined look. Often described as a “perm for your lashes,” it provides a low-maintenance alternative to eyelash extensions or daily mascara use, with results lasting approximately 6-8 weeks, depending on the client’s lash growth cycle. The treatment is ideal for clients seeking a natural, eye-opening effect without the upkeep of extensions.
Key Components of a Lash Lift Kit:
Lash lift products typically include a professional kit with the following supplies:
•  Lifting Lotion/Cream: Breaks down the disulfide bonds in the lash keratin to make lashes malleable for shaping.
•  Setting Lotion/Cream: Rebuilds the bonds to lock the lashes into their curled position.
•  Nourishing or Moisturizing Solution: Hydrates and strengthens lashes post-treatment, often containing keratin, vitamins, or oils.
•  Silicone Rods or Shields: Used to shape the lashes by adhering them with a water-soluble adhesive.
•  Lash Lift Adhesive: Secures lashes to the rods during the procedure.
•  Cleansers and Tools: Includes oil-free cleansers, applicators, brushes, and flocked applicators for precise application and removal.
•  Optional Tint: A dye to darken lashes for a more dramatic effect, often combined with the lift for enhanced results.
