Give Your Natural Lashes a Little More Attention

Your lashes have been through a lot.

Mascara every morning, curling, falsies at the weekend, extensions for holiday, a lash lift because apparently we can never have too much going on in the lash department.

We get it.

Lashes can completely change a make-up look.

But while we're focused on making them look longer, fuller and more defined, it's easy to forget about the natural lashes underneath.

The lash reset.

Not a complicated 12-step routine. Just a few simple habits to make your natural lashes part of the beauty routine too.

Start with your make-up removal

If removing your eye make-up involves rubbing until the mascara eventually admits defeat, this is your sign to change that.

Use an appropriate eye make-up remover and take your time. Hold the product against the lashes before gently wiping rather than repeatedly pulling at them.

The goal is to remove your make-up. Not your lashes along with it.

Give waterproof mascara a little more thought

Waterproof mascara definitely has its moment.

Holiday, festival, wedding, an emotional movie or episode of your favourite series.

But because it's designed to stay put, it can take more effort to remove.

If you're wearing it regularly, make sure you're using a suitable remover and taking it off gently rather than scrubbing at the lash line.

Clean your lash curler

Be honest.

When did you last clean yours?

Exactly.

Eye tools come into close contact with your lashes and eyelids, so keep them clean and check the rubber pad regularly.

And try to curl your lashes before applying mascara rather than clamping down once they're coated and stiff.

Lifted lashes? Yes.

Accidentally pulling at them? Absolutely not.

Falsie girls: removal matters

We've all had that moment.

Night out finished, shoes off and false lashes being peeled off before you've even made it through the front door.

Tempting? Yes.

Ideal? Not exactly.

Take your falsies off gently and use a suitable remover where needed rather than pulling unnecessarily at the lash line.

They took 20 minutes to apply.

You can spare another minute taking them off.

Extension girls: don't forget what's underneath

Extensions can give you the length, volume and drama without reaching for mascara every morning. But your natural lashes are still underneath them.

Follow the aftercare advice given by your lash technician, keep your extensions appropriately clean and avoid picking or pulling at them.

When it's time for maintenance or removal, follow the advice of the professional who fitted them.

Your natural lashes are part of the appointment too.

Make your everyday lash routine count

You don't need to choose between looking after your natural lashes and loving extensions, falsies, lifts or mascara.

The two can absolutely exist together.

The key is making sure your natural lashes don't become an afterthought once the finished look is in place.

Gentle removal, proper aftercare, clean tools, no unnecessary pulling.

Simple habits, but ones that are easy to build into the routine you're already doing.

Because the goal isn't less glam.

It's better lash habits behind the glam.

And then there's your wider beauty routine

Looking after your lashes isn't only about what you apply to them.

A varied and balanced diet remains important, and if you choose to include food supplements in your beauty routine, it's worth paying attention to the nutrients they actually contain.

Optifil Feed My Lashes Gummies contain biotin and zinc.

Both biotin and zinc contribute to the maintenance of normal hair.

Each cherry-flavoured gummy also contains vitamin C, vitamin E, L-methionine, amla extract and bamboo extract.

The recommended intake?

One gummy a day.

Simple enough to sit alongside the rest of your beauty routine without turning it into a full-time job.
