Difference Between Eyelash Perm and Lash Lift

Beautiful and well-groomed eyelashes can be the key to changing the expression of the face and reflecting great beauty, but which treatment to choose?

One of the big questions that arises for clients when they decide to stop using the eyelash curler and mascara is what is the difference between eyelash perm and lash lift, and which of the two treatments is more suitable for them.

Eyelash Perm

What is Eyelash Perm?

Eyelash perm basically curls the natural lashes. The curvature will depend on the length of the lashes and the desired effect. The treatment begins by removing the eye makeup, followed by applying a specific liquid and a small roller to the lashes, which are left for a necessary amount of time. To maintain the curl for a longer period, it is advisable to repeat the treatment every 45 days. It is a quick and simple treatment that lasts about 1 hour and the effect is immediate.

Lash Lift

What is Lash Lift?

The lash lift treatment also begins with the removal of eye makeup and the application of a Primer to dehydrate the lashes. Next, a silicone mold with adhesive is placed on the upper eyelid and the first product is applied to the lashes to open the pores and fix the shape of the mold. After leaving it on for the necessary time, the product is removed and the second product is applied in the same way. It is very important to respect these times to achieve the desired effect. After applying the dye, the lashes are separated from the mold and a moisturizing serum is applied to give elasticity and shine to the lashes.

The Perfect Complement: Eyelash Tint

The ideal complement for both treatments is eyelash tint. It is a special service to dye the eyelashes, performed after the lash lift or perm, which provides color and brightness to the eyes, intensifying the gaze. It is the perfect solution for those with light eyelashes, little volume, or simply for those who want to forget about the mascara for a while.

Which Treatment to Choose?

Unlike the eyelash perm, which is a more traditional treatment that only curls the lashes, the lash lift is a more modern treatment that offers interesting benefits. The lash lift is replacing the eyelash perm in many beauty salons because the lashes appear more natural as they are lifted from the root, making them appear longer. The products used in the lash lift do not damage the natural lashes, give a greater thickness, rejuvenate, and define the gaze. In addition, it lasts between 5 to 8 weeks, making it a long-lasting treatment without the need for constant touch-ups.
