What Is Eyelash Enhancement?

Eyelash Enhancement is meant to create the appearance of thicker eyelashes. This treatment adds color, thickness and definition to the lash line and enhances the eye area by making eyes look more defined. Some of the more common reasons to get eyelash enhancement include: asymmetrical eyes, eyes that are too small, aging eyes that are looking tired and wanting thicker eyelashes.

Our clients have many reasons for wanting eye procedures done and we want to correctly and accurately direct them to what is best for them. As experts we take into consideration facial asymmetry, aging process, color fading and color migration, just to name a few, in order to help our clients select the best shape and procedure for them.

For example; some clients prefer the eyeliner to be wedged and others like it domed, it will be up to us to direct our client to the best choice. Remember, when it comes to the eyes, its better to keep your procedures more conservative. This will help you look healthier, stay looking better, longer and produce fewer problems from your procedure in the future.

Eyelash Enhancement Care

BEFORE CARE:
Please note: During consultation we discuss everything client needs to know about the treatment and prepare each client beforehand.

WHAT TO EXPECT:

• There may be swelling and redness for the first 5 days.
• During the initial healing period, there should be minimal scabbing or flaking of the skin.
• Eyes may feel dry or irritated.
• The color will look darker.
• Expect the color lighten up by 40%.

CAUTIONS:

• Do not pick, rub or peel off your scabs, to avoid bald spots, scars or infection (itching is normal as skin is repairing itself)
• Keep the treated area clean and dry (use clean towel or tissue to dry it)
• Avoid environments that would cause dirt or germs to contact area while healing
• Wash daily with a light touch to remove bacteria, use gentle soap, dry with a clean tissue.

• No bleach or dye (30 days)
• No anti-aging products around eyes containing AHAs, Retin-A, Lactic, Glycolic Acids. (these will fade permanent makeup, since creams travel in the skin)

Do you have 90s eyebrows?

The 1980s was big everything – big hair, big shoulder pads and yes even bushy big brows. But, in the 90s, the thin, low-arched eyebrows were all the craze and thus the bushy eyebrows were obliterated. A generation of women plucked their brows as thin as the style demanded. They created the perfect The 90s Eyebrow style. It wasn’t all that bad because the 2000s still enjoyed the thin brow until the end of the decade when a more natural shape began to surface again in popularity. Today, in the 2020s, the big, bush brows are back!

Did you pluck your eyebrows too much?

We’ve all been there in front of the mirror cleaning the eyebrow just a little bit….and then you realized that half the brow is gone. The good news is most people will only have to deal with the slow process of the brows growing back which could take up to six months. Unfortunately, some people plucked the brows so thin that they simply don’t seem to be growing back to today’s fashions. As we get older, the hair does thin and that includes the eyebrows. The good news is that there is Microblading.

Have you ever thought of microblading your eyebrows?

Microblading is a wonderful solutions for people who plucked their brows a little too much. Microblading is a new, revolutionary, semi permanent eyebrow procedure. It is performed by implanting pigment under the epidermis of the skin manually. This technique is done by pulling or swiping a manual pen and very fine blades across the skin to create one by one fine hair strokes. Microblading looks natural and is a wonderful solution for people who overplucked their brows. If you have overplucked or still have the 90s eyebrows style and would like to make a change, call Brow Design By Dina.

Sun Safety For Your Skin

Sun is actually good for you because some some exposure helps to produce vitamin D which helps calcium absorption for stronger and healthier bones. However, the sun’s ultraviolet (UV) rays can cause damage to the eyes, skin, and even the immune system. The skin can be damaged by a sunburn and excessive UV light exposure that will not only prematurely age skin but also can lead to skin cancer. It is important to make sure that you know proper sun safety.

The Impact of Skin Tanning

The tanning of the skin is a response to UV light. When the UV rays reach the skin, the skin makes melanin. Melanin is the pigment, or color, that causes tanning to take place. It is important to understand that tanning does not prevent skin cancer. The melanin is the first defense that the skin has against the sun because it absorbs the dangerous UV rays. A sunburn develops when the amount of UV damage exceeds the protection that the skin’s melanin can provide. Proper sun safety can help to get enough sun to remain healthy.

Protecting the Skin Against The Sun’s Harmful Rays

The best way to protect the skin against the sun’s harmful rays is by limiting the exposure and by applying sunscreen and wearing protective eyewear. Make sure to choose a sunscreen that has a minimum of 15 SPF and apply it regularly to the skin. All skin types need protection from the UV rays. Even darker skin tones can have painful sunburns and get skin cancer from the sun’s rays.
