Eyelash extensions are one of the most popular beauty treatments worldwide. In addition to professionally applied extensions by a stylist, eyelash care is just as important. Here you will learn how to properly comb eyelash extensions with a brush and why this is so important.

Why do eyelash extensions need to be combed?

Most women know it, but some don't. Eyelash extensions need to be combed daily for several reasons:

The order of the eyelashes

By combing, the extensions remain in the desired position and thus achieve the perfect eyelash effect.

If the eyelashes are stuck together by makeup or other liquids, combing will help to gently separate them and give them a beautiful look.

Cleanliness of eyelashes

An eyelash brush not only helps to keep the eyelashes beautiful, but also carefully combs them away from dust particles and dirt.

What brushes are available for combing eyelash extensions?

An eyelash brush is a very important tool for the care of eyelash extensions. Here you can find the most important types of eyelash extension brushes and their properties:
