Lash Aftercare 101: How to Make Your Beam Light Lashes Last

At More Than Lash, we use the revolutionary Beam Light Lash System to give our clients superior results and longer-lasting lash extensions with less irritation and zero downtime. But once your lashes are applied, proper aftercare is key to keeping them looking full, healthy, and beautiful between appointments.

Here’s everything you need to know about how to care for your lashes at home—especially when you’ve received Beam Light lashes.

🚿 Daily Cleaning Is a Must

Clean lashes = long-lasting lashes.

We recommend cleaning your lashes daily with a lash-safe shampoo to remove oils, dirt, and makeup residue. Even if you don’t wear makeup, your skin naturally produces oils that can weaken the adhesive bond and trap bacteria near the eye area.

Here’s how to do it:

• Use a specially formulated Eyelash Shampoo (never regular facial cleansers)

• Gently lather with a lash-safe brush or fingertips

• Rinse thoroughly with lukewarm water

• Pat dry—do not rub

Regular cleaning:

• Prevents infections

• Reduces eye irritation

• Keeps your natural lashes healthy underneath

🖌️ Comb Your Lashes Daily

Use an Eyelash Brush to comb your lashes every morning and evening. This:

• Keeps the lash line neat and tangle-free

• Preserves the natural curl and shape of your extensions

• Helps evenly distribute oils, preventing buildup

🚫 What Not to Do With Lash Extensions

To protect your investment and your natural lashes, please avoid the following:

• No Mascara: Especially waterproof formulas. If absolutely necessary, use only oil-free mascara on the tips.

• No Lash Curlers: These can damage or detach your lash extensions.

• Do Not Remove Them Yourself: Always have lash extensions professionally removed to avoid harming your natural lashes.

💡 Why Beam Light Lashes Are Easier to Maintain

One of the biggest perks of the Beam Light system? It’s designed for effortless aftercare and maximum wearability.

Here’s what sets Beam Light lashes apart:

✅ No 48-Hour Rule

You can shower or swim immediately after your appointment. No downtime needed.

✅ Resistant to Oil, Chlorine & Saltwater

Beam Light glue stands up to harsh environments—ideal for active clients or frequent travelers.

✅ Instant Curing

The adhesive dries instantly, meaning no waiting period for full bond strength.

✅ Invisible Glue Points

Thanks to clear glue, the bonded areas are virtually invisible for a seamless look.

✅ Less Irritation & Lash Loss

The system is gentler on the eyes and promotes healthier retention by reducing stress on your natural lashes.

✅ Longer-Lasting Fullness

Beam Light lashes retain their curl and fullness longer, so you’ll look amazing for weeks.

🕒 Refill Appointments & Longevity Tips

Because Beam Light lashes offer improved retention, many clients find they need less frequent refills—but it’s still important to book your touch-ups regularly to keep your lashes full and symmetrical.

We recommend refills every 2–3 weeks, depending on your lifestyle and natural lash cycle.

💖 Pro Aftercare = Lash Perfection

By following these care tips and using approved aftercare products, you’ll enjoy:

• Longer-lasting lash sets

• Healthier natural lashes underneath

• Fewer complications or need for early refills

🌀 Seasonal Lash Shedding: What to Know

As the weather changes, it’s common to notice more lash fallout—especially with cooler temps, dry indoor heat, and allergy season in full swing. This is known as Lash Shedding Season, and it’s completely normal.

To help your extensions last:

• Stick to your lash-safe cleanser

• Avoid eye rubbing, oil-based products, and waterproof mascara

• Book fills every 2–3 weeks to stay full and fluffy

• Consider switching to a lighter set if shedding is heavy

✨ Bonus Tip: Donna recommends using RevitaLash® Eyelash Serum to help strengthen and extend the natural lash cycle during shedding season.
