Eyelash extensions and what you should generally consider
With both types of eyelash extensions, careful handling is essential for looking beautiful. Daily eye care, makeup removal, cleansing, and even the makeup itself should be performed with special products to keep the eyelash extensions looking beautiful for a long time. When applying DIY eyelash extensions, you should be careful not to use oil-based eye care products to avoid compromising the adhesive's durability. Products containing alcohol also shorten its durability.
You can wear both types of eyelash extensions while exercising or swimming, and they won't restrict your daily life. However, after reapplying the eyelash extensions, you should ensure that the adhesive surfaces do not come into contact with water for at least 24 hours. The adhesive needs this time to fully cure.




If you wear glasses, you should always choose eyelash extensions that won't brush against your glasses. This makes opening and closing your eyes uncomfortable. If you apply the eyelash segments yourself, you can simply trim them. If you're having permanent eyelash extensions applied, don't forget to bring your glasses with you to the salon.
You should also be extremely careful when rubbing your eyes, or better yet, avoid rubbing them altogether to avoid breaking off the eyelash extensions along with your natural lashes. However, you should also be extra careful when sleeping. Sleeping with your face snuggled into your pillow also risks damaging the eyelash extensions. It's entirely possible that you'll wake up with bent eyelashes or even find eyelashes on your pillow. DIY eyelash extensions are clearly a better option here. You can use them as needed and remove them at night.
Your lifestyle significantly influences the choice of the best eyelash extension method. DIY eyelash extensions are definitely a more cost-effective and straightforward way to achieve stunning lashes.

With just a few drops of oil, the adhesive can be removed quickly and without irritating the eyes or natural lashes. When removing DIY eyelash extensions, it's recommended to remove any remaining adhesive with a fine brush.
Another advantage of DIY eyelash extensions is that they're easy to apply and remove. This means you can care for your own natural lashes anytime between treatments. A helpful tip: If you remove the extensions at night, you can care for your lashes overnight and easily apply new ones in the morning.
