Lash Lift Prep Guide: What to Know Before Your Appointment

By CoCo Esthetic’s

Want long, lifted lashes that last? Here’s everything you need to do — and avoid — before your lash lift appointment to get the best results:

BEFORE YOUR APPOINTMENT:

1. Arrive With Clean Lashes

Please come with no mascara, eyeliner, lash serum, or eye makeup 24 hours prior to your appointment time. Clean, product-free lashes help the lifting solution work properly.

2. Avoid Waterproof Mascara

Stop using waterproof mascara at least 48 hours before your appointment. It leaves behind residue that can block the solution and affect your lift.

3. Remove Contact Lenses

If you wear contacts, please bring your case and glasses. You’ll be most comfortable with your lenses out during the service.

4. Avoid Lash Curlers

Don’t curl your lashes for at least 24–48 hours before your lift. We want your natural lash shape to be relaxed so we can reshape them properly.

5. No Eye Creams or Oils

Skip oily eye creams or serums the night before and the day of your appointment — they can create a barrier that prevents the lifting solution from working.

6. Plan for Downtime After

After your lash lift, you’ll need to keep your lashes dry and makeup-free for 24 hours. So try to avoid workouts, showers, or steamy environments right after your service.
