Festival season is finally here! Whether you're rocking out at Coachella or hitting up your favorite local music fest, lash extensions are your ticket to effortless, long-lasting glam. But to ensure your lashes stay flawless throughout those long days and nights of fun, a little extra care is key.
Pre-Festival Lash Prep: Get Your Glam On
- Find Your Lash Pro: If you're new to extensions or need a pre-festival fill, seek out a certified lash artist (like the skilled pros trained by Sugarlash PRO!). Discuss your desired style – classic sets offer timeless elegance, while volume lashes add major drama. Think of your lifestyle, your outfit, and the maintenance time you’re willing to spend on fills.
- Timing is Key: Schedule your lash appointment a few days before the festival to allow the adhesive to fully set. And don't forget to pick up Sugarlash Society's Gentle Gel Cleanser – it's the perfect way to keep your lashes clean and fresh.
Lash Love During the Festival: Care Tips for Lasting Beauty
- Cleanse & Refresh: Start (and end) your day with Sugarlash Society's Gentle Gel Cleanser. Its oil-free formula gently removes dirt and debris without compromising your extensions.
- Be Savvy: Sunscreens, makeup, and even your skin's natural sweat can weaken lash adhesive due to the oils present. Be mindful of what comes in contact with your lashes and be sure you’ve locked-in your lashes with our Sealant to help prevent premature shedding.
- Resist the Rub: Avoid touching or rubbing your eyes, as this can dislodge extensions. Dirt, dust, and sand are the realities of outdoor music festivals, so wearing sunglasses and hats can help prevent any particles from flying into your eyes. If any debris does end up tangled in your lashes or eyes, be sure to use clean hands and water to gently rinse and dislodge the debris while using a spoolie to help clean your lashes.
- Brush & Fluff: Speaking of spoolies, pack a few clean spoolie brushes to detangle and fluff your lashes for a perfectly polished look while you’re on the go. You’ll inevitably lose a couple lashes, but doing everything possible to prevent losing a large amount of lashes is key. Spoolies can get grimy or lost easily in the excitement, so having extras will come in handy.
Post-Festival Recovery: Show Your Lashes Some Love
- Deep Cleanse: Once the festival fun is over, give your lashes a thorough cleanse with our Gentle Gel Cleanser to remove any lingering dust or glitter.
- Maintain Your Look: Extensions naturally shed with your own lashes, so to help your lashes and extensions last for as long as possible, use a lash sealant and remember to schedule regular fills every 2-3 weeks to keep your lashes full and fresh.
- Nourish & Recover: A lash serum, like Plump from Sugarlash Society promotes healthy growth of your natural lashes, perfect for recovery after your lashes have been removed.
