How to apply lash serum
Everyone wants his or her eyelashes to look full and voluminous. Perhaps you read our past articles about using lash serum, and decided to get one for yourself. In your hands, you look down on your lash serum. Now what?
Today, we will teach you how to apply lash serum step-by-step, but before that, let us talk a little about what lash serum is and how it works.
What is lash serum
The world of cosmetic products is ever changing. In the past, the only ways to make your eyelashes look longer and more impressive were mascara and extensions. However, these methods can cause your eyelashes to deteriorate over time. Today, there are so many other options for us to enhance our lashes without having to apply makeup daily! One of such methods is the use of lash serum.
The best part about using an eyelash serum is that applying it consistently will help your lashes achieve a significant increase in length. With fuller and thicker natural lashes, you will never have to touch that mascara again!
How does lash growth serum work?
Lash serum helps make your eyelashes look fuller and healthier by making them grow longer and more voluminous over time. Just like your other body hairs, your lash hair experiences the three phases in the hair growth cycle – anagen (active phase), catagen (transition phase), and telogen (resting and shedding phase). You can learn more about how lash serum works on our other blog.
Rightfully, your lash serum should contain only natural ingredients that are safe for use. It should not disrupt your lash hair’s natural growth cycle, but instead supports the growth cycle to enhance your lashes naturally.
The lash serum will help to extend the duration of the anagen phase to allow your lash hair to grow for a longer period. The lash serum also helps with the remainder of the lash hair that are not in the anagen phase. For the lash hairs that are in the catagen phase, the serum nourishes them and makes them healthier and stronger. This prevents them from breaking out and helps to make your lashes look fuller. The serum also helps your lash hair pass the telogen phase quicker and re-enter the anagen phase to form new lashes
How to apply lash serum?
Applying lash serum is actually a pretty simple and straightforward process. However, considering that you may not have done this before, we have prepared a step-by-step guide on how to properly apply lash serum for you to achieve the best results when using your lash serum.
1. Clean your face and remove any makeup on your eye area
Ensure that your face is clean and dry before applying the lash serum. This prevents any makeup from mixing with and contaminating the lash serum.
2. Apply to the upper lash line
When applying the serum on your upper lash line, ensure that the tip of the serum brush touches the roots of your lash hairs. This extremely crucial step helps you achieve the best results with your lash serum, but be careful not to get the serum in your eye.
Lash serum is highly concentrated and one dip is sufficient for both eyelashes. Dipping more than once is wasteful and increases the risk of the serum getting into your eyes. If it gets into your eyes, wash it under water, as you would for other cosmetic products.
3. Put a thin line of serum along the bottom lashes
Use the brush to apply the serum from the outer to inner corner. Avoid putting too much serum as it may enter your eyes and irritate them.
4. Wait for it to dry before putting on mascara or other makeup products
The lash serum should dry up in about 2 to 4 minutes, but try to wait for at least 5 minutes. Once it is dry, you can carry on with your regular routine.
5. Be consistent
We have been emphasizing the importance of consistency. Skipping days will not cause any harm to your lashes, but it will cause the lash hair to grow slower. To ensure the best results possible, you should apply your lash serum every day. We recommend applying your lash serum first thing in the morning when you wake up, and at night right before you sleep.
The most important thing here is consistency – remember to apply the serum twice a day for the best results! On average, you should see the results in 4 to 6 weeks, so this is a long-term game with your eyelashes.
