Medical Video: Protective Coating by Xtreme Lashes - Longer Lasting Eyelash Extensions
In addition to lash extensions, the world of beauty comes a new method of lengthening lashes, namely lash lift. Lash lift is a method of beautifying the eyes that aims to make eyelashes lift, volume, and look thick. This beauty treatment is claimed to use natural ingredients. Then, how is the process done? Are there dangers to health? Come on, see the answer here.
How do you install the lash lift?
Lash lifts can only be done by experts who have been trained in clinics or beauty centers. The way the lash lift works is carried out with keratin which is applied to the upper lashes. Initially, all makeup on the face will be cleaned, especially the eyes, so that the ingredients makeup do not go inside and clump on your original lashes.
Next, the thick silicone adhesive will be placed on the eyelid. Then, the eyelashes will be combed slowly to separate and not clot.
In addition, the process of combing the lashes also aims to lift the lashes to the top of the eye that has been given silicone adhesive. After that, then the lashes smeared with special cream containing ingredients, one of which is keratin.
Also not spared, eyelashes smeared with special mascara to make it look black, thick and volume. Same as eyelash extension, there are several options for the type of stop you can choose. Usually there is a size small, medium, large, or super large.
The process of pasting and silencing the lashes will run for 30 to 40 minutes in each one eye. During this process, the eyes must be tightly closed. It also aims to avoid entering pelentic creams and irritating the eyes.
After being left on and pressed, the lashes will be applied to the cream to release it from silicon. The end result of a lash lift can make your lashes look more flexible and volume. Lash lifts can last around 6-8 weeks.
What are the dangers?
Dr. Jacqueline R. Carrasco, oculoplastic surgeon at Wills Eye Hospital in the United States (US) said that because you use chemicals for the eye lift lash process, there is a possibility of the risk of allergies. This is because basically everyone's skin will react differently.
You are also susceptible to the development of the risk of dermatitis (a skin condition that causes redness, swelling and even abrasions) and inflammation, especially if keratin enters the eye or in the surrounding skin.
There are also no experts analyzing and determining whether this sticky cream is 100 percent safe or not. This was explained by Michael J. Earley, PhD, a doctor of optometry at The Ohio State University College of Optometry.
Try first how to flex and lengthen natural lashes
The lash lift and lash extension methods are already gaining popularity in the world of beauty. However, you can still make lashes more beautiful in some natural ways like the following:
1. Use olive oil
Olive oil contains vitamins A and E that benefit hair health, including lengthening lashes. Olive oil absorbs deep into the roots of the hair and the pores of the skin of the petals to stimulate the growth of the lashes and become a shield to protect the strength of the hair shaft lashes.
Apply a few drops of olive oil directly at the base of the lashes every night to encourage the growth of lashes that are more pliable and thick, or drip olive oil into cotton or cotton bud and pat gently on your lashes. Leave for five minutes (or can overnight) and rinse with warm water. Do this every night for four weeks or until you get the desired results. Usually, the results will begin to appear clearly after 1-2 months of routine use..
2. Use green tea
Brew green tea and let it cool. Then you can rub green tea directly on your lashes with cotton or cotton bud. The content of caffeine and flavonoids found in green tea can accelerate the growth rate of existing eyelashes while encouraging new eyelash growth.
3. Use aloe vera
If you want to maintain health while lengthening your lashes, simply apply a little aloe gel directly to the base of your lashes before going to bed with the help of a mascara brush. Thanks to the strong content of vitamins and nutrients, aloe vera can increase the growth rate of the lashes and also strengthen them.
