NYK1 Secrets to healthy Lashes and Brows! We here at NYK1 are all about enhancing one’s natural beauty to boost self esteem and inner confidence. So aside from using NYK1’s LashForce Lash Serum to achieve long, thick, and strong lashes, if the lashes aren’t healthy the foundation for longer fuller lashes long term isn’t there. So follow these easy steps to ensure your lashes look and feel their best. Follow our simple steps for maintaining healthy lashes and achieving lusciously long results. Top Tip #1 – Gentle Makeup Removal When removing makeup, take extra care around your eyes. Avoid sleeping in your makeup and refrain from rubbing or picking at your eyelashes to remove mascara. These actions can impact lash growth and lead to increased lash loss. Natural makeup removers, such as coconut oil, are recommended for safe mascara removal. Top Tip #2 - Cleanse and Dry Lashes Before applying lash growth serum, ensure your lashes are clean and dry. Any makeup residue or oil-based products on your lashes can act as a barrier, preventing the serum from being absorbed at the lash root. Top Tip #3 - Be Consistent Consistency is key to seeing the best results. Make it a habit to apply your lash growth serum consistently every day. Applying the serum both morning and night provides a constant flow of nourishment to the lash roots, maximizing its effectiveness. Top Tip #4 - Use Fresh Mascara Replace your mascara every 3-6 months to prevent eye infections, irritation, and increased lash loss. Old mascaras become clumpy, dry, and difficult to remove, which can contribute to lash damage. Top Tip #5 – Try the Vaseline Hack on your Lashes Yes it is true, Vaseline can be used as a alternative to mascara. Vaseline mimics the effects of mascara, leaving you with lashes that look extra thick, shiny and voluminous. It will also help moisturize and strengthen said lashes (the opposite of mascara, which tends to dry them out). So opting for this instead of your mascara will give your lashes a break and condition at the same time. Top Tip 6 Protect from heat Just like the hair on our head lashes can also bear the brunt of direct sunlight and heat. So whenever out on a hot day remember to protect your lashes & eyes from harmful UV rays by wearing sunglasses. This helps prevent dryness and maintains lash health. Top Tip #7 - Maintain a Healthy Diet Beauty really does radiate from the inside out, so maintain a well-rounded, nutrient-rich diet to keep your lashes, along with your hair and skin in the best condition. Forget your 5 a-day let’s aim for 10! Top Tip #8 - Replace Eyelash Curler Pads If you use an eyelash curler, remember to replace the lifting pad after 6 months of daily use. Over time, the pad can lose density or develop ridges, reducing effectiveness and potentially causing damage or lash loss. Top Tip #9 – Don’t play with your lashes Many of us are guilty of stroking and pulling at our lashes either as part of a habit or as a result of stress or anxiety – even a gentle pull can affect the roots and lead to lash loss, not to mention potential bacteria from your fingers getting into your roots and causing infections. Top tip #10 Continue investing in your lash growth serum Ensuring no break in the application as that will impact the results. Start you Lash Growth Journey today!
