A lash lift curls your natural lashes from the base so they sweep upward and look longer and more open.
It does not add length or use extensions. It simply changes the direction your own lashes sit.
It suits people with straight or downward-pointing lashes who would like less time with a curler and mascara. We choose the curl size to suit your eye shape and keep the look natural.
Pricing is quoted at your consultation, once Geet has seen your skin and you have agreed on a plan.
Is it right for you?
A good fit if
- Your lashes are straight, short-looking or point downward
- You want to skip the lash curler most mornings
- You prefer your own lashes to extensions or strips
- You like a natural, open-eyed look
Better to wait, or check with your doctor, if
- You need a patch test first: it is done 48 hours before your first appointment
- You have an eye infection, a stye or irritated eyelids
- You have had recent eye surgery: ask your doctor first
- You are not able to keep your eyes closed and still for the length of the appointment
What happens at the appointment
Consultation and patch test
We talk through the curl you want, check your eyes and lids, and do a patch test 48 hours before your first appointment.
Preparing the lashes
Lashes are cleaned, separated and placed on a soft silicone shape in the curl size we chose together.
Setting the curl
A setting product is applied for a short timed period, then neutralised to hold the shape.
Finishing and aftercare
We brush the lashes into place and give you written aftercare to follow for the first 24 hours.
Afterwards
How it settles, stage by stage.
First 24 hours
Keep lashes dry and clean. No mascara, steam or rubbing.
Days 2 to 7
The curl is at its best and the lashes feel soft and settled.
Weeks 2 to 5
The curl holds. Brush with a clean spoolie as needed.
Weeks 6 to 8
Lashes grow out and shed naturally and the curl relaxes. Rebook if you want to keep the look.
Aftercare
- Keep lashes dry for 24 hours: no water, steam, sauna or swimming.
- Skip mascara and eye makeup for the first day, then use a water-based mascara if you wear one.
- Do not rub your eyes or sleep face-down on the first night.
- Avoid oil-based cleansers, which can loosen the curl faster.
- Brush gently with a clean spoolie once the first 24 hours have passed.
How long it lasts
A lash lift lasts about 6 to 8 weeks, following the natural cycle of your lashes as they shed and regrow. It is not permanent. We space appointments at least 6 weeks apart to keep your lashes in good condition.
Common questions
What is a lash lift?
It is a service that curls your natural lashes from the root and sets them in that shape. It does not add length or use extensions. Most people see lashes that look longer and more open.
How long does a lash lift last?
About 6 to 8 weeks, and it fades gradually as lashes grow out. Aftercare in the first 24 hours helps the curl set.
Does a lash lift hurt?
It is not usually painful. Your eyes stay closed, and you may feel a slight warmth or tingling. Tell us straight away if anything stings.
Can I wear mascara after a lash lift?
Not for the first 24 hours. After that you can, though most people find they need less. Choose a water-based formula, and avoid oil-based cleansers.
Do I need a patch test?
Yes, for your first appointment, 48 hours before. This lets us check for a reaction. We do not book a lash lift if you have an eye infection or irritated lids.
Is a lash lift the same as extensions?
No. Extensions glue extra lashes onto yours, while a lash lift only changes the curl of your own lashes. That means less upkeep and nothing to grow out of place.

A consultation is where Geet looks at your skin, draws the shape or matches the tone, and gives you a clear quote. You decide after that.
