5 Exciting Ways to Pamper Your Lashes

There is a truly a day to celebrate even the smallest things, like your eyelashes. Feb. 19 marks National Lash Day to promote lash care with nourishing products. After all, it's hair—it deserves the same treatment as the strands that grow out of your head and on your brows.

Unsure of where to start to achieve those beautiful lashes you've always dreamed of? Continue reading to discover some fun ways we like to elevate our eyes.

Lash Extensions

The most common way to pamper your lashes is with extensions. Your tech (or yourself, if you're a beauty expert) will take individual fibers to glue onto your lash line. Instantly, you will have a fuller look, while eliminating the need for primer and mascara in the morning.

Lash extensions can also be super versatile. For example, you can go with a natural "classic" style or request a voluminous set. These days, you may even find more distinct mappings, such as the manga lash, which will give you the same effect as your favorite cartoon characters.

Lash Lift

While beautiful, lash extensions can be very intense, especially if you have never worn falsies before. They often feel heavy and, sometimes, itchy. Still, there are alternatives to get the polished look you desire.

Lash lifts are a great option for anyone who already has naturally thick lashes and wants a small pick-me-up. You will wake up everyday looking like you used a lash curler. Plus, it's one of the most long-lasting treatments, offering the effect for almost a full month.

Lash Tint

We love mascara because it gives us that dramatic black shade that calls attention to our eyes. However, wearing mascara can be stressful to your eye area when you are pulling and dragging your lashes with makeup remover to take the day off. With a lash tint, you can get those dreamy jet black lashes for weeks. It's worth it for everyone, even if your lashes are already dark—black adds so much dimension.

 

Lash Bath

Are you someone who swears by lash extensions? You must take extra care of your lashes to avoid build-up. To do so, many techs may provide a "lash bath" service to keep things nice and aired out. Basically, it's a foamy cleanser that gets rid of any remaining makeup and natural oils you may miss in your nightly wash. Taking care of your extensions will extend their retention and make them shinier. It's just like washing the hair on your head.

Lash Care

So, you might not do any of the other services on this list, but you still want to have nice, healthy lashes. Simply add some lash-specific products to give your eyes the extra TLC. For example, you can add a skin-friendly oil, like castor oil, to keep your lashes hydrated. Or, you might want to try out one of those lash growth serums you've seen online. The possibilities are endless.

Oh, and if you do have any of the previously mention treatments, this can be a great last step to upkeep your investment.
