Lifting natural lashes for a more open-eyed look

Your existing lashes are the focus of a lash lift. At Nour Skin Center in Haarlem, we reshape them from the roots without attaching artificial hairs. A dedicated lotion temporarily softens the lashes, allowing us to set a new curve. They then appear longer, with a more open-eyed effect.

Your appointment, step by step

Consultation: we begin with your preferred curl and check for allergies or problems affecting the eyes. Cleaning: lashes are cleansed and the lower row is shielded. Lifting: a small silicone mould sits on the eyelid, with lashes brushed across it. The initial lotion softens the hairs. Fixing: a second lotion secures their new curve. Care: we thoroughly remove the product and condition the lashes.

Before your lifting appointment

Arrive free of eye cosmetics and mascara. Remove contact lenses before lifting and bring spectacles. Keep oils and rich creams away from the eye area on the preceding day. Do not curl lashes on treatment day. Previous reactions to hair colourants, perming preparations or eye cosmetics? Tell us before attending by phone or WhatsApp, so we can consider with you whether proceeding is sensible.

The visible life of your lash lift

The change is visible immediately afterwards. The curl generally remains apparent for 6 to 8 weeks. Natural renewal helps determine its duration: fresh hairs emerge straight while treated ones eventually shed by themselves.

Keeping lashes dry and caring for them at home

The new curve firms into place over the first hours following your appointment. The usual guidance is: leave lashes dry initially, often around 24 hours; keep away from sauna heat, steam and perspiration too; leave mascara aside throughout this initial period; avoid rubbing the eyes and keep your face out of the pillow while sleeping; put oil-based eye cosmetics remover aside for the first few days; afterwards, carefully comb the hairs upwards each day.

Reasons to avoid or delay lifting

We recommend forgoing lifting or delaying your visit in these cases: infection, eyelid inflammation, a stye or another eye problem; a recent eye operation: obtain your eye specialist's clearance first; allergy to the lotion or previous reactions to hair colourants or perming preparations; irritated skin or eczema surrounding the eyes; particularly short or damaged lashes; ongoing chemotherapy.

What could happen to your lashes?

The lotions are chemical, much like those used to perm head hair. Careful technique and adequate spacing between visits reduce the likelihood of damage. Possible unwanted effects include: watering, redness or irritation when product enters an eye; allergy to the lotion, causing itchy or swollen lids; dryness, brittleness or hair breakage from overly frequent visits or excessive processing time; a curve that differs from your expectations.
