Where to get the best lash lift in Melbourne
Lush lashes in the blink of an eye
We all love the eye-opening magic of eyelash extensions, but they're an undeniably fussy endeavour. If you're too time-poor for fortnightly refills, or just prefer a more natural effect, might we suggest a lash lift—it's a semi-permanent treatment, meaning it lasts anywhere between six to eight weeks, and it's far better for your natural lashes than extensions.
In layman's terms, a lash lift is essentially a perm for your eyelashes. No, not the 1980s poodle curls you're envisioning—rather, it's like having your eyelashes permanently curled but with much more length and volume than your manual, at-home eyelash curler can achieve.
During the treatment a solution is applied to your lashes while your eyes are closed. The lashes are then gently coaxed upward into a silicon eye pad, which keeps them lifted from the root for around 20 minutes or so to set their new position. Once removed, you'll find your eyes bequeathed with long, fluttery 'I-can't-believe-they're-not-extensions' lashes that lasts up to two months. No mascara needed!
But when it comes to a lash lift, it pays to visit the best—namely, a professional salon that will take the time to assuage any of your hesitations and make sure your lashes are looked after properly during the process. If a lash lift sounds like an appealing concept and you're a Melbourne local, you're in the right place.
