The use of eyelash extensions in the beauty world is constantly increasing. Many people use eyelash extensions because they are more effective that mascara. They lengthen and define the eyelashes with a stunning improvement of the appearance of the eye. However, many people wonder if the use of semi permanent eyelash extensions is really safe. The fact is that permanent eyelash extensions are totally risk free if the person applying them knows what she is doing.
In order to complement your natural eyelashes, eyelash extensions are normally placed at the base of the eyelid. There are several different types of eyelashes of which each type is applied differently. Some eyelash extensions are applied lash by lash while others are applied in clumps. Good eyelash extensions applied with quality adhesive will normally last for three to six weeks. As the adhesive weakens, the eyelash extensions will start to drop off as a sign that they should completely be removed.
The first and foremost thing that should be considered when applying eyelash extension is the safety of the eyes.

It is always advisable to have adhesives tested before applying them to your eyelids. (more...)
