Mascara is one of the oldest ways to make eyelashes appear thicker and longer. Not many people may know that it has been in use since around 4000 b.c. At that time, both men and women used Kohl for making the eyes more attractive.
Over time, ways to make the volume of eyelashes greater have included increasing the amount of protein in someone’s diet and also the massage of the eyelids to stimulate blood flow to the eyelash base to increase lash growth.
The advent of false eyelashes allowed a more luxurious appearance. Eyelash extensions have an improved appearance over false eyelashes, and eyelash extensions are usually applied one at a time to individual lashes. Made of synthetic or human hair, silk, or mink these lashes can be waterproof and worn without the appearance of mascara.
These eyelash extensions are available in color, fullness and size that vary depending on the appearance desired. Eyelash Removal is a process that must be done correctly to not harm the natural lashes.
Eyelash extensions can last many days, depending on the method used to apply them. Removal of extensions is something that must be done carefully. Methods for Eyelash Removal include;
1. Steam- filling a bowl with water that is heated in the microwave and then a towel can be used to trap the heat around the head for ten minutes.
2. Oil- a cotton ball dipped in olive oil and gently rubbed across lashes taking care not to get oil in the eyes.
3. Warm water- gently rubbed across the lashes until they become loose.
The adhesive used to apply eyelash extensions are very strong, extensions are applied using a form of cyano acrylate. Improper removal of extensions can damage the delicate skin of the eyelid or around the eyes.
