The Low-Down On 3D Lash Extensions You Don’t Want To Miss!

Basically, 3D lashes are semi-permanent eyelash extensions that are perfect for girls with sparse, fine eyelashes. Just like your normal lash extensions, these lashes are stuck in such a way that they look absolutely natural, so you can totally fake thicker, voluminous lashes!

When you get the normal lash extensions, the stylist places only one fake eyelash per natural eyelash. This technique could be a little redundant, because it restricts the stylist to the number of natural lashes the client has. But this is where 3D lashes are different. These lash extensions are made from fine hair that are bunched up and made into fans to be later attached to your natural lash line. This is what gives your eyelashes a fuller and more voluminous appearance. While normal lash extensions only deliver length, 3D lash extensions deliver length, volume as well as thickness.

Once you have gotten these 3D eyelash extensions, they last for about 30 to 45 days provided you care for them and treat them right.

1. Do not wet your lashes Do not get your eye lashes wet for at least 48 hours after the initial application, as this is how long it takes for the lashes to settle down completely. To clean your face, we recommend you to use a wash cloth instead of splashing your entire face with water.
2. **Avoid using eye products with oil ** If you use eye creams or any other products with a high oil content, then it is advisable to avoid using them at least for the initial few days. This is because it could break down the lash glue and decrease the longevity of the extensions.
3. Avoid rubbing your eyes We tend to unknowingly rub our eye area, especially when washing our face. But if you have gotten 3D eyelash extensions, it is highly advisable that you refrain from doing this. Brush them gently if you feel the need to and always use an extension-friendly cleanser.
4. Switch to a silk pillowcase If the health of your hair and skin haven't made you switch to a silk pillowcase, then we hope the longevity of your fresh eyelash extensions prompts you to do this. A cotton pillowcase will end up causing a lot of wear and tear, especially if you have the habit of sleeping on your stomach or on your side. Avoid this unnecessary friction by simple replacing your cotton pillowcase with a silk one. Image courtesy: Instagram
