Eyelash lamination - who is it useful for?
It is useful for those with brittle or long eyelashes, but not curved and thick enough. For the well-being and beauty of their lashes, many women try everything, double-volume mascara, extensions, serums for regrowth. And therefore many will want to try this lash lift, a very advanced treatment that tones and revitalizes the lashes, creating a beautiful frame for the eyes. It is a new effective technique, not only in terms of thickening and thickening, but also because it regenerates the lashes, which become brighter and more vital.
Compared to thickening with false eyelashes, this treatment gives the lashes a natural effect, hydrates and vitalizes them not apparently, but actually. In fact, compared to false eyelashes for example, too showy and unnatural, the lamination thanks to the modeled curvature gives real vitality and volume to the natural eyelashes, sharpening the look and making it more expressive and sensual. The nourishing contribution is given by products with Keratin, Panthenol and Proteins which also bring benefits to the hair bulb. The treatments must always be carried out at a qualified beauty center with expert and responsible personnel.

It is not entirely advisable to do it yourself for this innovative and more complicated technique to do at home than the eyebrow lamination. We therefore advise against do-it-yourself, if you decide to try this treatment, choose the best beauty salon and a specialized operator.

The procedure is initially quite similar to that followed for the eyelash extension. You lie down and with your eyes closed, the eye must be perfectly removed and clean of tearing residues. Then with patches the lower lashes are isolated from the upper ones and the eyelids are protected. They usually contain hyaluronic acid, so you can apply them in the most gentle and easy way. Then the silicone bezels are glued with a glue that dissolves in water. Always with this water-soluble glue, the lashes are brought to the silicone crescent, choosing the most suitable pad according to the shape of the eye. The permanent lotion (usually pink in color) is the first lotion passed on the lashes, leaving it on for 10 minutes if the lashes are thin and at least 15 if they are thick. It is then removed with sticks and distilled water. Then the second lotion is applied. The blue setting lotion must remain in place for the same time as the permanent lotion.
We are almost at the end: after giving the lashes their final shape, they need to be nourished in order to make them not only stronger, but also more beautiful to the eye. This nourishing phase lasts only 5 minutes, but it is essential for the health of your lashes. The pads are then removed, to which your lashes are still attached, thanks to the third lotion, which dissolves the water-soluble glue. The operator will then pass some disks soaked in distilled water on the eyelids. At a later stage a magical natural mascara effect can be obtained, if the client requests it, by passing the eyelash dye. For about 48 hours do not apply mascara, make-up products, oils and even water for 24 hours and in the end you will find healthy, strong, thick, shiny, regenerated eyelashes and this will positively affect the charm of your eyes and your mood. ! The benefits last more than two months thanks to the lash keratin. The whole treatment takes about an hour, a shorter time then compared to the eyelash extension. This technique is called a natural healing therapy. The results are not entirely immediate; it takes at least 4 sessions to restore perfection and youthful beauty to your lashes. In four months the procedure should be repeated at least 3-4 times, as it is an accumulative treatment, therefore it must be repeated periodically. The price of a session is from 60.00 to 80.00 euros.
How long does this magical effect last?
The effect of the treatment lasts more or less from 6 to 8 weeks, obviously it depends on the growth time of the lashes, as well as for the extension. The natural products used, rich in vitamins and keratin, stimulate the hair, increasing its shine and elasticity. They must be of excellent quality with real keratin, capable of protecting the eyelashes from ultraviolet rays and from the slightly more aggressive treatments carried out for the curving and dyeing of the eyelashes. To obtain good results, make sure that the products used by your beauty center chosen for the treatment are of excellent quality and contain real keratin. In fact, for the protection of the eyelashes, keratin is essential, it moisturizes the hair and protects it from aggressive agents. Much also depends on the type of hair of your eyelashes and their thickness .

Who is this aesthetic treatment recommended for? Are there any contraindications or side effects?
Contraindications concern eye and eyelid pathologies, pregnancy and breastfeeding, as well as eyebrow lamination. You may have some short-lived mild irritation. Lash lamination makes the eyes brighter and the eye more open and lifts the lashes without having to resort to the annoying eyelash curler. Even those who have little separated them, crossed each other in a disordered way, so much so that they have problems even with the application of a simple mascara, will derive an undeniable benefit from this treatment, which separates the lashes and fixes them permanently in the right position . This new technique is also suitable for those with too long and stiff lashes, as it nourishes and softens them. In addition to lashes that are thin, rebellious or brittle or that are too straight and sloping downwards, this aesthetic technique is suitable for those with long, but not curved and thick enough, and also for those who are on a break from thickening for extensions. It is not necessary to remove the treatment, given the natural fall and regrowth of the eyelashes. With this innovative technique, no hair is added to your natural lashes, as is the case with extension. Therefore, however, it is less suitable for those with too short lashes. Lash Lifting can also be used for eyebrows.
And now blink your eyelashes naively and winking! They are just as you wanted them: bushy, curved, soft and intended like your gaze.
