 How to Take Care of Lash Extensions Tips to Make Them Last Longer

Lash extensions are a game-changer when it comes to enhancing natural beauty without the need for daily mascara or lash curling. But if you want those gorgeous, fluttery lashes to last, proper aftercare is non-negotiable. In this blog, we’ll walk you through practical tips to maintain your lash extensions and ensure they stay flawless for weeks. Plus, we'll show you how Lashed Cartel supports you with premium lash products and training that elevate your lash game—whether you're a client or a lash tech.

Why Lash Extension Aftercare Matters

Eyelash extensions are semi-permanent fibers individually applied to your natural lashes. With the right care, they can last up to 4–6 weeks. However, without proper maintenance, they may shed prematurely, fall out unevenly, or even damage your natural lashes. That’s why following a lash care routine is crucial.

Top Tips to Make Your Lash Extensions Last Longer

1. Avoid Water and Steam for the First 24–48 Hours

After getting lash extensions, it’s important to keep them dry for the first day or two. Water, steam, and sweat can weaken the adhesive bond and cause lashes to fall out early.

💡 Lashed Cartel Tip: Use our lint-free lash wands and gentle face pads to clean your face during the first 48 hours without disturbing your lashes.

2. Clean Your Lashes Regularly (Yes, Really!)

Many people think they shouldn’t touch their lash extensions, but skipping cleaning can lead to oil buildup, dirt, and even lash mites. Use a lash-safe cleanser to clean your lashes gently every day.

🧴 Recommended: Lashed Cartel’s Foaming Lash Cleanser is specifically designed for lash extensions—non-irritating, oil-free, and safe for daily use.

3. Sleep on Your Back

If you’re a side sleeper or stomach sleeper, you may unknowingly press your lashes into your pillow, causing them to bend, twist, or fall out. Try sleeping on your back and use a silk or satin pillowcase to reduce friction.

4. Avoid Oil-Based Products

Oil breaks down the adhesive used in lash extensions. That means makeup removers, eye creams, or even moisturizers containing oils should be kept away from the eye area.

🚫 Skip products with mineral oil, coconut oil, or petroleum around the eyes.

5. Be Gentle—No Rubbing or Tugging

Rubbing your eyes or picking at your lashes will cause premature shedding and can damage your natural lashes. If they feel itchy or you see buildup, cleanse them gently with a lash brush or wand.
