How do I use a lash primer?
As an eyelash professional, using a lash primer is a crucial step in guaranteeing the best results and meeting your customers' expectations. Why should you? Because primer plays an essential role in preparing natural lashes before applying extensions. As mentioned above, it improves glue adhesion, extends the life of lash extensions, protects natural lashes from applied products and boosts volume and Curvature. Impossible to do without!
To use it correctly, carefully remove make-up from lashes and make sure they're dry. Then select the perfect primer (the one that's right for your client's lashes and the application you're going to do - but don't worry, you'll find what you're looking for on Velvet Extension !), and apply a small amount of primer to a micro-brush or applicator.
Then apply the primer to natural lashes in a zig-zag motion, from base to tip, making sure to coat each lash. All you have to do is let the product dry completely: drying time is indicated on the bottle. Now you're ready to create a gorgeous look!
How do I use a lash remover?
Mastering the eyelash remover is essential for gently and safely removing your customers' eyelash extensions, while preserving the health of their natural lashes. Here's a complete guide on how to use it effectively!
Once your customer is comfortable, protect her eyes with hydrogel patches (also available from Velvet Extension). As with primer application, gently remove make-up from the eyelids, ensuring that no traces of product (mascara, etc.) remain. Dip a cotton bud, brush or micro-brush into the remover and apply to the eyelash extensions. It's essential that they're saturated with product, to facilitate removal!
Leave the remover on for the recommended time, usually between 3 and 10 minutes. Gently remove the extensions from the natural lashes, using fine tweezers or a special tool. Velvet Extension tip: start with the extensions furthest from the eye and work towards the more central ones. Finally, clean the natural lashes with a cotton swab soaked in warm water and lash shampoo to remove any remover residue. Please note! Your client's eyes must remain closed throughout the process.
Which lash primer to choose?
When applying eyelash extensions, the choice of primer depends on several factors:
-
primer color: you can generally choose between a transparent primer (universal, suitable for all lash colors and providing a neutral base for extensions) or a coloured primer (ideal for starting to mask light or dark lashes and creating a more even effect);
-
the desired effect: if your customers are looking for a voluminous look, there are primers enriched with fibers or thickening agents, which add density to lashes and reinforce the hold of extensions. On the other hand, if they prefer the "care" aspect, choose a primer formulated with nourishing ingredients;
-
ease of application: some eyelash technicians prefer primers with a fluid texture, while others prefer a thicker texture. At Velvet Extension, we offer eyelash primers in gel, cream or liquid form, so every professional can find the perfect product!
-
Brand of glue: make sure the primer you choose is compatible with the brand of glue you're using.
Which eyelash remover is right for you?
Once again, every remover has its own qualities! It's up to you to choose the one best suited to your customer's wishes. Here are a few points to consider:
-
remover formulation: acetone-free remover (less aggressive for natural lashes and sensitive skin around the eyes), oil-based remover (effectively dissolves glue without drying out lashes, leaving them nourished and moisturized)... Each formulation is different;
dissolving strength: opt for a remover powerful enough to effectively destroy the glue used for extensions, without damaging natural lashes;
-
application time: removers have varying application times. At Velvet Extension, some of our products dry between 3 and 5 minutes, others between 8 and 10 minutes. The choice is yours!
