\nOver time, both chlorine & saltwater can affect lash retention. So, whether you are swimming in a pool, lake, or the ocean, we recommend rinsing with freshwater post-swim and then combing through your lashes with a lash wand to remove excess water.<\/p>\n
\nExposing your lashes to extreme heat can \u201crelax\u201d the curl, or even worse\u2026singe your lashes! Make sure not to stand too close or directly over heat to keep your lashes intact and looking beautiful.<\/p>\n
\nIt\u2019s pretty impossible to run around in the sun and not sweat. Sweat carries natural oils from your skin that can run into your eyes and affect lash retention. To combat the effects of that sweat on your lashes, we recommend using a towel or sweatband when hitting the gym, or in extreme sweating situations (such as hot yoga). Don’t forget to rinse your lashes post-workout with fresh water.<\/p>\n
\nBeing outside more \u2013 camping, hiking, swimming, etc- can lead to increased dirt & debris collecting in your lashes. We recommend keeping them clean by rinsing in the shower, allowing the water to pass through, or using our foaming lash cleanser.<\/p>\n
\nSunscreen is an absolute MUST for all of your favorite summer activities! However, it is important to keep in mind that many brands of sunscreen contain oils, which when running onto the lashes, can lead to excessive shedding. We recommend taking extra care when applying your SPF, avoiding the eye area, and allowing it to fully soak in before swimming or sweating.<\/p>\n
