Can I use a lash curler?

No, there is no need for a lash curler as the treatment gives a much better result than using a curler. Using a curler may weaken and damage your lashes. 

Can I wear mascara? 

Of course! You will just achieve a more dramatic effect when mascara is applied to the curled lashes.

Is there any maintenance?

None at all! You don’t have to do anything special with your lashes in between lifts.

Will a lash lift damage my lashes?

No, the lifting solutions are only applied to the new growth area of the lashes down toward to base and up a bit and never to the ends of the lashes.
