After getting eyelash extensions, some people usually apply eye makeup to enhance the beauty of their eyes. Eyeliner and eyeshadow are important parts of eye makeup. The eyeliner is usually applied at the root of the eyelashes. Therefore, many people wonder if they can still apply eyeliner at the root of the eyelashes after getting eyelash extensions.
Can you apply eyeliner after getting eyelash extensions?
Yes, you can apply eyeliner after getting eyelash extensions.
Getting eyelash extensions involves transplanting new hair follicles to replace the original ones, which does not affect the normal function of the eyelashes. However, if you want to apply eyeliner, you need to wait for the hair follicles to become alive and new eyelashes to grow.
How long after getting eyelash extensions can you apply eyeliner?
Generally, it takes about 3 to 6 months after getting eyelash extensions before you can apply eyeliner. It takes this amount of time for the transplanted hair follicles to grow new eyelashes. Applying eyeliner at this stage not only does not affect the survival of the hair follicles, but also makes the makeup look more natural and seamless.
How to apply eyeliner after getting eyelash extensions?
If you want to apply eyeliner after getting eyelash extensions, you can follow the steps below:
Close your eyes and start by drawing a thin black line from the outer corner of the eye towards the inner corner, starting at the outer third of the eye. Then slowly move the eyeliner pen, ensuring consistent thickness. Next, draw a line from the outer third of the eye towards the inner corner, connecting it with the line already drawn in the middle. Finally, partially open the eye for the inner third, use another fingertip to slightly lift the eye socket, and draw a line from the inner corner to the middle. If you have eyeliner powder, you can use a cotton swab to apply a small amount to the root of the eyelashes to fill in any gaps in the eyeliner.
How to remove eyeliner after getting eyelash extensions?
If you want to remove eyeliner after getting eyelash extensions, you should follow the steps below:
Prepare a cotton swab and a tissue. Fold the tissue in half and place it on the lower eyelid. Close your eyes and use the cotton swab dipped in makeup remover to gently wipe from the root of the eyelashes downwards. Repeat the same method to remove the eyeliner. Then, use a dedicated eye makeup remover to gently press on the eyes for 5 seconds. After removing it, use another piece of makeup remover cotton pad to wipe the eyes. Close your eyes lightly when wiping the eyeliner, and look upwards when wiping the lower eyeliner. Repeat several times until all the makeup is removed.
