Lash Aftercare 101
Keep your lashes
cloud-soft & full
Fresh lashes are an investment — and a few simple daily habits are what make them last. Here's your no-stress guide to keeping them full, clean, and fluffy.
Your 2-minute routine
A quick daily ritual is the secret to lashes that stay clean, healthy, and full. The order matters — face first, lashes second.
Cleanse your face
Wash your face and remove makeup first, so nothing rinses down onto your lashes.
Cleanse your lashes
Foam Lash Cloud gently through your lashes and along the lash line — even on no-makeup days.
Rinse
Rinse with lukewarm water until no product or residue is left behind.
Fan dry
Dry with a handheld fan until lashes aren't dripping — never a blow dryer.
Brush
Run a clean spoolie from base to tip to fluff them back into a perfect fan.
Cleanse like a pro with Lash Cloud
Our gentle, pH-balanced, oil-free whipped cleanser lifts away makeup, oil, and debris without disturbing your extensions. Soft enough for daily use, tough on the gunk that breaks lashes down.
- Pump a quarter-size amount of foam onto your lash brush or fingertips.
- Gently swipe through your lashes and along the lash line.
- Rinse thoroughly with lukewarm water until clear.
- Pat dry and brush through with a spoolie. Done!
See it in action
A quick look at keeping your lashes clean, healthy, and fluffy.
Heat is sneaky
High heat and steam soften adhesive and can warp your extensions before you even notice. The usual suspects:
Steam rooms & saunas
Direct steam is the fastest way to loosen a fresh set. Sit them out.
Blow dryers
Hot air blasts lashes out of shape — switch to a cool setting or a handheld fan.
Cooking heat
Leaning over a hot stove or open oven counts too. Give it some space.
Facials
Skip the steam step — ask for warm, damp towels instead so your lashes and eyes stay untouched.
Sleep on your back
Smushing your lashes into a pillow all night is the #1 cause of flat, crooked, sparse sets. The fix is simple: sleep facing up.
Can't stay on your back? A travel airplane neck pillow cradles your head and keeps it laying straight, so you can't roll onto your face mid-snooze. A silk pillowcase helps too.
Signs you're a face-sleeper 👀
- ☁️ Lashes flat or crisscrossed on one side
- ☁️ One eye noticeably sparser than the other
- ☁️ Lashes twisting or pointing sideways
- ☁️ Waking up with lashes creased or stuck
Loves & no-thank-yous
A quick cheat sheet for everything that keeps your lashes happy — and everything that quietly shortens their life.
☁️ Lashes love
- Cleansing daily — face first, lashes second
- A handheld fan to dry, a spoolie to fluff
- Sleeping on your back or a silk pillowcase
- Patting your face dry, gently
- Fills every 2–3 weeks
- Lash-safe, water-based products only
🚫 Please skip
- Oil-based cleansers, makeup & removers
- Waterproof mascara of any kind
- Eyelash curlers (they snap extensions)
- Cotton pads & rounds — fibers catch
- Rubbing, picking, or pulling at lashes
- Steam rooms, saunas, blow dryers & stove heat
Prep the night before
Save your deeper cleansing for the evening before your fill — never right after. It means you arrive with squeaky-clean lashes (your tech will love you) and you skip heavy products on a fresh set.
Deep cleanse
Give your lashes and lash line an extra-thorough wash with Lash Cloud to lift every bit of buildup.
Exfoliate
Do your face exfoliation the night before, so you're not scrubbing near a brand-new set.
Mask
Sheet masks and treatments belong to the night-before routine too — let your skin reset before fill day.
Shedding is normal
You naturally lose 3–4 lashes every single day — that's just your lash cycle doing its thing, and it's completely okay. Because each extension goes with its natural lash, a fill simply tops you back up before there's a noticeable gap. It keeps your set looking fresh and costs less than a brand-new set.

lashes shed naturally — totally normal
When to reach out
A little awareness on day one is normal. But get in touch with us — or see a doctor or eye-care professional — if you notice any of these:
- Ongoing itching, redness, or swelling that doesn't settle
- Eye pain, watering, or any discharge
- Lashes feeling stuck together, twisted, or poking you
- More than the usual amount of extensions shedding early
Most of these have an easy fix and we'd always rather you ask. Never try to remove extensions yourself — let us do it safely.
Ready for your next set?
Book your fill, grab a bottle of Lash Cloud, and keep that cloud-soft fullness going strong.
