Well, the answer is quite obvious. If you don’t take care of your eyelash extensions, they will get clumpy and fall out soon.

So what happens if you don’t clean your eyelash extensions? Does cleaning lash extensions make them last longer? Importance of washing lash extensions? You had your eyelash extensions done, and you love what your lash artist made on your lashes. Then both of you are hoping that it will last longer.

The answer is quite simple. Washing your eyelashes is not only good for the health of your eyes, but also for their beauty of them as well.

Let me discuss on this blog the importance of washing your lashes.

The fine hairs that form on the eyelids serve a variety of purposes. Even though they are frequently viewed as a source of beauty, their primary role is to protect the eyes from microscopic particles like dust, sand, or debris.

Eyelash extensions are more likely to be affected by Demodex folliculorum. These mites feed on the dead skin cells that accumulate around the lashes and other parts of the eye, such as the lids.

Although everyone carries a small amount of these mites, they can nevertheless be passed through direct contact from person to person or animal to animal. When ladies don't take off their eye makeup and don't wash their eyelashes before bed, the mites can become a problem.

When we have our eyelash extensions on, we also need to make sure that we are responsible for taking good care of our lashes.

Remember to wash it regularly and follow simple steps to achieve longer retention of your lashes. Eyelash extension is a high-maintenance beauty treatment, and this being said, it requires attention on how to take good care of it.

 

HERE ARE SOME OF THE WAYS ON HOW TO TAKE CARE OF YOUR EYELASH EXTENSIONS:

 

1. BE GENTLY AND MAKE SURE NOT TO RUB OR PULL YOUR EYELASH EXTENSIONS

Not to be a killjoy, but you'll have to take care of your eyelash extensions just as regular lashes. You might think that the last thing you need is another beauty routine — especially if you just got them done — but remember that they're not bulletproof and will fade (or break off) over time.

CONCLUSION

Not cleaning your eyelash extensions can cause them to be a little dirty and grimy. And it is not very pleasant for people to see and for you to feel it. You will feel discomfort and won't feel good about it.

When you get eyelash extensions, the lash artist will apply an extension to each of your natural lashes and hope that they will last up to 4 weeks. But this is not possible if you don't take care of your lash extensions and clean them every day.

When you don't clean your lashes, the dead skin cells naturally produced in our body accumulate on the base of lashes, which causes a barrier to form between the lash adhesive and the natural lash. This barrier prevents the lash adhesive from sticking to the natural lash. Then there will be a gap between each lash extension and the natural lash that it is supposed to stick.

The eyelash extensions will fall off because there is no way for them to stick to your natural lashes. The more days you skip cleaning your lashes, the more gaps will form between your natural lashes and your eyelash extensions which means more premature lash falls. It is why it is essential to do a daily routine of cleaning and caring for your eyelash extensions to help them last longer!
