Eyelash tinting is a process in which dye is applied to the eyelashes to darken them. This can give the appearance of darker, fuller lashes without needing mascara or other makeup products.
Tinting your eyelashes is a great way to save time on your beauty routine, and it can also be useful if you have allergies or sensitivities to makeup products.
The technique uses a form of hair dye developed for specific use on the eyelashes.
What to Expect?
Eyelash tinting starts with cleansing the lashes. The therapist will dry the eyelashes and apply a damp shield on your eyes to prevent any tint going on your eyes. Then, you will close your eyes and the tint will be applied to your eyelashes. Once developed, the therapist will remove the tint and will reveal your new lashes!
