As a lash artist, you’ve likely encountered clients returning with ruined lash extensions despite your meticulous application. This common issue can stress your schedule and result in unhappy clients.
The solution lies in educating your clients about proper aftercare. Similar to a personal trainer, you must guide them on maintaining their lashes between appointments. Providing an eyelash extension cleanser and teaching lash hygiene can prevent clumping, infections, and premature lash loss, ultimately making your job easier and keeping clients satisfied.
Looking for the best products to care for your client's lash extensions? Check out our list of the top 5 aftercare products every salon should have in stock.
1) Prolong Lash Cleanser Concentrate
This is the first eyelash extension cleanser that graced the lash industry back in 2008. Don’t be fooled by its small exterior, this concentrate packs a punch! Originally used as an eyelash wash to dilute with water in your fingertips, it was reimagined.
Nowadays it’s used by mixing 1-part concentrate and 2-parts distilled water into an empty foaming pump bottle. This is perfect for the savvy shopper client who doesn’t mind spending the extra time being a mixologist.
2) Prolong Lash Foaming Pump Bottle
The same magic formula as the Prolong Lash Cleanser Concentrate, but premixed for your convenience - pump, foam and off you go! Say hello to clean, healthy lashes. This is perfect for the client who is time poor and likes the aesthetically pleasing bottle to display in their shower or bathroom shelf.
3) Prolong Lash Cleanser Travel Pens
The perfect companion to your clients Prolong Lash Cleanser Concentrate. This empty foam bottle makes a creamy textured lash shampoo and is reusable so your clients will only need to purchase it once. Available in 60ml and 100ml sizes.
4) Cleansing Brush
Deep clean that lash line with the help of our cleansing brush. This brush has thousands of soft bristles fine enough to glide through eyelash extensions, reaching the very base of the lash line.
When paired with Prolong Lash Cleanser this will clean clients lashes beautifully, removing all natural oils, skin cells, dirt and debris. Perfect for clients who wear makeup around the eye area.
5) Makeup Remover Face Cloth
Have you ever experienced the ultimate itchy eye whilst cleansing around your eyelash extensions with a cotton pad? That piece of stray fluff decides to attach itself onto the inner corner of your lash line, become undetectable to the human eye and irritate the life out of you? It’s not a fun time! That’s where Prolong Lash Makeup Remover Face Cloths come in. These face cloths are snag free and allow you to work around the eyes, close to the base of the lashes, without catching and pulling on the extensions. The cloths are designed to remove makeup without cleanser but as eyelash technicians, we know that dead skin and natural oils can build-up around the extensions, increasing the chance of developing infections and increasing lash mite colonies so we use the cloth with cleanser to solve that problem…YAY! This is perfect for that eco-friendly client who wears makeup and is looking for an alternative facial cloth to use on both their lashes and their face. Also, you get 2 in a pack which means you can have them on rotation when the other is in the wash!
So what about that client that wants to purchase a few products and asks for a cheeky discount? That’s where our packs come in! We’ve conveniently packaged together a selection of our #1 sellers ready for you to retail to your lash clients.
