Gift Yourself a New Set of Lashes
We give the best gifts to our friends and loved ones during the holiday season, but we often forget about ourselves, don’t we? Treat yourself for the new year and gift yourself a new set of lashes!
Lash extensions are a great service to get if you want a stunning, glamorous look for the new year, and the Woodbury Med Spa has a variety of lash services that will leave your eyes looking their best.
Let’s talk about the benefits of lash extensions, some widely-believed myths out there, and what you can expect at your first Woodbury lash extension appointment.
What are the Benefits of Lash Extensions?
It’s a common belief that lash extensions damage your natural eyelashes. That’s simply not true! Did you know that if applied properly (and we promise, we’re experts), eyelash extensions can actually be beneficial?
Here are some ways this popular service can improve your life and your look!
Gorgeous Gaze
Of course, the first and most obvious benefit of lash extensions is beauty. Many women dislike the appearance of their lashes – whether they’re too short, too light, or too thin. Lash extensions can make your lashes look darker, fuller, and much longer for a stunning, glamorous gaze.
Shorter Makeup Routine
Our beauty routines already take up so much of our time… from cleansing and moisturizing to makeup application removal… we can’t afford any additional to-dos in our makeup routines. That’s why lash extensions are the perfect addition – you don’t have to spend time curling, defining, and applying mascara. Your eyes will look gorgeous and put-together right when you roll out of bed!
Longer, Stronger Natural Lashes
Not only do lash extensions not damage your natural eyelashes, but they actually make them stronger for many people. You see, extensions eventually lead to stronger, fuller natural lashes since you won’t be curling them, wiping makeup off of them, or rubbing your eyes throughout the day.
Woodbury Med Spa Lash Services
What lash extension packages does the Med Spa in Woodbury, MN offer, you ask? We’ve got the lash solution to every type of eyelashes out there. If you really want to transform your eyes, book one of these lash packages along with some anti-aging treatments for the eye area, like dermal fillers!
Classic Full Set
Our classic set of lashes adds extensions to your eyelashes at a 1:1 ratio. This means an extension is applied to each natural eyelash. This extends the length of the eyelashes and is ideal for those who already have full lashes but want a natural-looking extension of their lash length.
Volume Full Set
With a volume set of lashes, lash fans with multiple extensions (which we custom-make at the Woodbury Med Spa) are applied to individual lashes to create a fuller appearance. This set is great for those who want a dramatic look or have few natural lashes and significant gaps.
Hybrid Full Set
As you might guess, a hybrid set of lash extensions is an equal mix of classic lashes and volume lashes. They add a bit of thickness and density to the natural lashes with a softer, more natural appearance than the volume set option.
What to Expect with Lash Extensions
Your initial lash appointment will last between two and three hours for proper application. While the lash extensions last up to five or six weeks, we recommend booking touch-up appointments every two or three weeks to ensure your lashes are looking their absolute best.
What CAN’T You Do with Lash Extensions
Once applied, you can start getting your lashes wet and wearing makeup just one to two days following either your initial appointment or a touch-up session. It’s highly recommended that you use high-quality, oil-free cosmetics since oils can negatively impact the lash adhesive and require more frequent touchups or complete re-application. You’ll also want to use an appropriate oil-free makeup remover to avoid damaging the adhesive.
Some other things you’ll want to avoid when maintaining lash extensions are:
Sleeping on your face
Using makeup wipes
Wearing mascara
Touching/rubbing eyes
How to Prepare for your Lash Extension Appointment
Prior to your lash appointment, be sure you wash your face and eyelashes with a cleanser that’s oil-free. Don’t wear mascara for 24 hours leading up to your appointment and don’t wear any eye makeup to the appointment if you can avoid it.
