The desire to conquer the stronger sex with a wave of thick, long and gracefully curved eyelashes often leads young ladies to a beauty salon, where they will try on themselves one of the achievements of modern cosmetology - the eyelash extension procedure. Regardless of the success of the final result, sooner or later you have to get rid of artificial beauty. Few girls know that you can remove extended eyelashes yourself at home. This article will tell you how to do this without harming the eyelids and eyelashes.
How to remove eyelash extensions at home: safe ways
One of the following will help you get rid of artificial eyelashes without the help of a specialist: For this purpose, a regular oil-based cream is suitable. Using a cotton swab, gently treat your eyelashes with it and wait for a while. Having completely absorbed into the eyelashes, the cream will dissolve the glue that fixes the hair extensions. Before using the product, it is advisable to check it for hypoallergenicity. To do this, lubricate a small area of skin on the bend of the arm with a cream and observe the reaction throughout the day.
Using oil for removing eyelash extensions, you will not only accomplish the task, but at the same time strengthen the vegetation on the eyelids. Prefer vegetable oils such as olive, peach, almond, flaxseed, and grape seed oil. The use of castor, burdock or sea buckthorn oils can be fraught with swelling of the eyelids and irritation of the mucous membranes of the eyes, so they should be used with extreme caution. The algorithm for removing false eyelashes using oil is as follows: cut a cotton pad and, having moistened one of its halves in slightly warmed oil, place it under the lower eyelid. Next, apply oil to the eyelashes and leave for 30 minutes. Give a gentle eyelid massage if desired. This will help to better peel off the hair extensions. Finish off by gently removing the false eyelashes with tweezers. If some hairs are difficult to remove, in no case try to pull them off by force. You will most likely need to repeat the event to restore your eyes to their original appearance.
To remove eyelashes in a more professional way, use a special solvent - debonder. You can buy it in a specialized store, but the purchase will be more likely to be justified if you plan to extend your eyelashes repeatedly. The technology for removing artificial eyelashes with a debonder is similar to the two previous ones. The only difference is the duration of the procedure. In this case, the event will only take a few minutes of your free time. Keep in mind that Debonder is a fairly corrosive agent used to dissolve resin and waterproof adhesives. And therefore, its contact with the eyes is highly undesirable. If such a nuisance occurs, immediately rinse your eyes with running water. After using the debonder, you may experience slight redness and irritation of the eyelids. To remove them, apply a compress from a decoction of chamomile, sage or calendula to the eyelids.
Regardless of the number of extensions, after removing artificial eyelashes, your own will require strengthening and restoration of the previous volume. For this purpose, you can use cosmetics for the growth and strengthening of cilia, special keratin complexes, as well as proven folk remedies - lotions from herbal decoctions, masks from oils and other natural ingredients, eyelid massage.
