Are lash lifts worth it?
Our take
Hi all. I've been contemplating a lash lift and tint for a while now - mine are straight and grow downwards, so they're basically invisible unless I use a lash curler, and even then, if I don't put on mascara straight away, the curl drops after a few minutes. I often start work early, so am pressed for time in the mornings, also long hours plus oily skin means I usually look like a panda by the end of my shift 😭 So would be nice to skip the mascara altogether! My only concern is that I've heard that after a few weeks, the lashes can end up growing in different directions, as the new lashes come in.
How much of an issue has this been for those that have had lifts, and is it something that can be rectified with a curler?
Thanks

- Asian lashes that when they get wet = stick straight. Are at home lash lifts safe? With lash clusters too?Hi! I have straight downwards pointing Asian lashes and I love my lash clusters. They look really good at first, but when they get wet, the curl almost completely disappears and they end up super droopy. Even when I curl them before & afterwards with my Shiseido lash curler they still end up droopy after washing my face/cleaning them, even tho I'm curling them well, and when they do end up slightly curled they droop really quick. They always end up covering my eyes a bit and just ngl a bad look cus they're so unlifted and it already takes me like an hour to put them on </3 So I was thinking about lash lifts maybe like every ~8 weeks ... but I've seen SO much people online talk about how DIY-ing them at home can be extremely harmful with the fumes. And since our eyes are so important it's got me second-guessing if I'd really want to do it. I don't really have anyone to help me with them, so I'd have to do it myself and I can't afford a professional lash lift. But oh man would my clusters look & feel so much better with lashes that maintain a curl.... I'd appreciate any advice... :"D submitted by /u/datavroom [link] [comments]
- Experiences with lash dye/colorSo I've been thinking about using dye to skip the mascara part in the mornings and wanted to ask if you have some recommendations or experience with that:) I have naturally long and curved lashes, and I never did a lift. I usually use Armani mascara (a gift from my MIL, absolutely love it!). Which coloring would you recommend, and what are things that I should be aware of? submitted by /u/oxygendeprived37 [link] [comments]
- is it worth doing a lash lift & tint at home?i’ve been thinking of doing this myself because i’d save up tons of money every single month, but not sure if it’s really worth it since it seems a bit dangerous and complicated for a complete beginner. what are your thoughts and experiences when it comes to this? submitted by /u/notsoflowerys [link] [comments]
- has anyone successfully made their lashes thicker/longer?Hi, i have naturally downturned, straight, short, thin lashes… i use to get a lash lift but it honestly never did much…. i tried lash extensions years ago and didn’t know there was different kinds aka clusters vs singles.. i had clusters they were WAY to heavy for my eyes and completely ruined my lashes when i asked them to remove them after 2 weeks instead of doing a refill… my lashes “grew back” as in they were still the short straight lashes i knew. I’ve tried grande lash but it was making my eyes red so i stopped before i could see results. My friend uses this tho and her lashes grew soooo long and pretty! I’m just worried because i have binocular vision dysfunction and I don’t know if it would mess with that! Recently in the past month i’ve gone back for extensions after YEARS of trying random serums from walmart.. or even a castor oil recommendation from my esthetician. nothing has done ANYTHING i’ve gotten my single lash extensions refilled once so far… but tbh it’s not even the money that’s the issue it’s more so time consuming and how often they get sparse!! sitting in a chair with my eyes closed for almost 3 hours every 2 weeks for $70. I’m also very worried about my nature lashes being completely ruined. I follow the care instructions but i can’t help but wish my natural lashes were thick and long!! before the extensions i have now i can curl them good with a curler as they are and add water proof mascara but they still just look stubby!! any recommendations? submitted by /u/MysticForestCat [link] [comments]
