Winter Lash Care Tips: Keep Your Extensions Looking Fabulous During the Cold Season

Winter is here, and while it’s a season of cozy sweaters, warm drinks, and holiday cheer, it’s also a time when your lash extensions may need a little extra TLC. Cold temperatures and dry indoor air can take a toll on your lashes, making it essential to adapt your lash care routine to the season. At Lash Me Now, we’re all about helping you keep your extensions looking flawless, no matter the weather. Here are our top winter lash care tips to maintain your fabulous look all season long!

1. Hydrate, Hydrate, Hydrate

Winter air can be extremely drying, not only for your skin but also for your lashes and extensions. To combat this:

• Use a humidifier at home to add moisture to the air and prevent your extensions from drying out.

• Drink plenty of water to keep your body and lashes hydrated from the inside out.

2. Protect Your Lashes from Harsh Weather

Cold winds and freezing temperatures can weaken lash bonds. To safeguard your extensions:

• Wear sunglasses or a scarf over your face when stepping outside in extreme weather.

• Avoid direct exposure to snow or rain, as excessive moisture can loosen the adhesive.

3. Be Gentle with Your Lashes

With winter layers and scarves comes the risk of accidentally tugging on your lashes. To prevent damage:

• Be mindful when putting on and taking off scarves, hats, or coats.

• Avoid rubbing your eyes, as this can weaken the extensions and cause premature shedding.

4. Cleanse Regularly and Thoroughly

Winter makeup, like heavier eyeliner or shadow for holiday parties, can build up along your lash line. Proper cleansing is key to lash health:

• Use the Lash Me Now Lash Cleansing Foam to gently remove makeup and debris.

• Incorporate a lash cleansing brush for a deep yet delicate clean.

5. Nourish Your Natural Lashes

Healthy natural lashes are the foundation for beautiful extensions. The dry winter air can make natural lashes brittle, so it’s essential to keep them nourished:

• Apply the Lash Me Now Eyelash Serum daily to hydrate and strengthen your natural lashes.

• The serum’s nourishing ingredients promote lash growth and improve resilience, ensuring a strong base for your extensions.

6. Avoid Heat and Steam

While it’s tempting to take long, hot showers or enjoy saunas during the cold months, excessive heat can weaken the adhesive bond of your extensions. Instead:

• Opt for shorter, lukewarm showers.

• Keep your face away from direct steam exposure to preserve lash retention.

7. Book Regular Fills

Winter festivities often mean more social events, and your lashes should always be on point. Ensure you maintain your extensions by:

• Scheduling fills every 2-3 weeks to keep your lash line full and lush.

• If you’ve noticed extra buildup, consider booking our new Lash Cleansing + Lash Fill Service for a thorough clean and refill in one session.

8. Carry a Mini Lash Fan

Drying your lashes after cleansing is especially important during winter. A mini lash fan, included in the Lash Me Now Lash Care Box, ensures your lashes dry quickly and prevents moisture from compromising the adhesive bond.

Recommended Products to Add to Your Routine:

• Lash Me Now Eyelash Serum: Strengthen and hydrate your natural lashes.

• Lash Me Now Lash Cleansing Foam: Gently remove makeup and debris.
