Xtreme Lashes - FAQ
What are Xtreme Lashes™?
Xtreme Lashes™ is a revolutionary new product that lengthens and thickens eyelashes. Xtreme Lashes™ are single strands of synthetic eyelashes that are curved to replicate a natural eyelash. They are applied to individual eyelashes, one lash at a time, for a natural, elegant and luscious look. Xtreme Lashes™ is perfect for special occasions as well as for every day wear.
How long do Xtreme Lashes™ last?
Xtreme Lashes™ can last up to 2 months, depending on the natural growth cycle of your eyelashes. You will probably want touch-ups every two to four weeks. Xtreme Lashes™ HP-3 High Performance Bonding Agent is specially formulated with a unique waterproof bonding agent to last. Imitation glues may not last as long because of an inferior bonding strength. Also applying the specially formulated Long Life Coating will prolong the life of the Xtreme Lashes™.
Can I swim, shower, exercise, or visit a spa while wearing Xtreme Lashes™?
Yes. Our specially formulated bonding agent allows you to shower, swim, exercise, and sleep worry-free while wearing Xtreme Lashes™. You can enjoy these lashes with little need to adjust your lifestyle. Please do not swim for 48 hours after the procedure to allow the bonding agent to fully cure.
How often should I get touch-ups?
We recommend getting a touch up every two to four weeks. A natural eyelash falls off every 60 to 90 days on average due to the growth cycle and is naturally replaced with a new eyelash. At any given moment, each of your natural eyelashes is at a different stage of its life cycle. A touch up is needed to replenish the lashes that have completed their life cycle.
Can I apply mascara to Xtreme Lashes™?
Indeed, one of the main advantages of Xtreme Lashes™ is never needing mascara again. However, if you must have the mascara look, only water based mascara can be used. It is important not to use OIL-BASED OR WATER-PROOF MASCARA as this will dissolve the bonding agent and cause the Xtreme lashes to fall off.
How do I take care of Xtreme Lashes™?
Your new Xtreme Lashes™ are long, thick and beautiful! Once applied, they last up to 2 months. Best of all, they are easy to maintain. Your SKYN therapist will give you a detailed easy care maintenance instruction manual following your procedure. To maintain this look and extend the life of your lashes, follow these easy care instructions:
- Do not wash eyes or shower for 24 hours after lash application. Do not swim or spa for 48 hours after lash application to allow adequate time for bonding.
- Be gentle with your lashes.
- Avoid rubbing your eyes.
- Avoid oil-based and waterproof mascara.
