Like most things in life, achieving healthy, beautiful lashes and brows requires some effort. From proper care to the right products and techniques, maintaining healthy lashes and brows requires a lot of effort. It's important to remember that our eyelashes have a growth cycle, and it's completely normal for them to shed every few months. However, bad habits and improper care can lead to damage, breakage, and even accelerated lash loss.
Don't forget that your eyelashes and eyebrows are more than just a base for mascara and brow pencil! They help protect the delicate eye area from dirt and dust, and help protect your eyes by forming a barrier to keep debris out. Therefore, healthy eyelashes and eyebrows aren't just for looks; they're also important for overall eye health.
Luckily, these 5 dos and don'ts can help you achieve and maintain the beautiful, healthy lashes and brows we all desire.
1. Avoid frequent use of waterproof cosmetics
Waterproof makeup should be avoided for daily use as it can be difficult to remove. Removal often involves tugging and rubbing your eyelashes, which can be very damaging and difficult to restore. For daily use, warm water-removable makeup is a better choice.
2. Going to bed without removing makeup
We know you've heard it before, and it's true; it's a no-no! Not only is it bad for the health of your lashes and brows, it can also lead to more serious problems like inflammation and infection. Even if you can't stick to your skincare routine, make sure to remove your makeup before bed. No more excuses for not washing your face!
3. Use an eyelash curler to curl your eyelashes after applying makeup
Eyelash curlers are incredibly effective, but they need to be used correctly. Use the curler before applying mascara, and avoid placing it too close to the base of your lashes. Using it after applying mascara can cause your lashes to stick together, break, or fall off, potentially leaving them patchy.
4. Eyelash extensions, keratin treatments, and eyebrow shaping
While eyelash extensions, keratin treatments, and brow sculpting methods can undoubtedly achieve desired results, they can also damage your lashes. Unless you're attending a special occasion, if you want to achieve a vibrant look, be sure to use an eyelash serum or brow serum to keep your natural lashes and eyebrows strong and healthy.
5. Not using eyelash or brow serum?
Even if your lashes and brows are already in good shape, you'll want them to look their best! Adding RevitaLash® Advanced Lash Repair and Boost Serum and RevitaBrow® Advanced Brow Repair and Boost Serum to your daily routine will give your natural lashes and brows fantastic results in seconds, making them stronger, healthier, and more beautiful!
