JAKARTA – Facial treatments to radiate beauty can be done in various ways. Because you have to wear a mask to minimize the spread of Covid-19, showing beautiful eyes is legal to do.

Recently, eyelash treatment or known as the lash lift is popular. Previously, lash fillers were also popular. So which one is better and how long can the lash lift last?

Dense eyelashes are eye-catching. Then installing synthetic eyelashes is the first step to make it look thicker, curly, and beautiful. But this method is not effective, because when washing your face eye lash extensions can fall out.

Furthermore, the beauty industry offers a more efficient and hassle-free way even though it takes several treatments, called lash lifts and lash fillers.

Lash lift gives the effect of thick and curly eyelashes without having to bother. The lash lift technique is to remove the eyelashes and then laminate them with a special liquid. Actually, the lashes don't become more numerous, but because they are lifted and curled, they look thick.

The lash lift treatment process is not as complicated as a lash extension. At first glance it looks like just putting on false eyelashes. The first step after cleaning, the lashes that have been trimmed are given a keratin solution. In order to see the changes more clearly, the eyelids were given a bright colored tape.

Lash lifts are also known as keratin lash lifts. Reporting from Cosmopolitan, Wednesday, June 23, the liquid in the lash lift technique is not perming or curling so it does not contain parabens and formaldehyde.

The lash lift treatment takes between 1 – 2 hours. After the eyelashes are coated with keratin, they are allowed to grow and curl. Well, after lash lifting treatment, you usually shouldn't wet your eyelashes for the next 48 hours.

Unlike the extension of eyelashes, the effect of this lash lift can last for 8 to 12 weeks. Even better, the lash lift can still be applied to mascara. Don't worry, the keratin layer will have no effect when you add mascara to your lash lift.

Unlike the lash fill, the technique is to apply a special lotion to the eyelashes to open the cuticle so that it can absorb the filler optimally. Filler fluid is a special liquid that is applied with a brush and the treatment takes approximately 90 minutes.

Lash fills can last up to 6-8 weeks. But it takes three treatments for the effect to be significant.

Both techniques for curling and thickening eyelashes are quite popular. How do you take care of your eyelashes?
