How to remove eyelash extensions without a special tool at home?

When building artificial eyelashes are fixed with a special resistant glue. If you properly care for them, then the eyelashes will last 10-14 days. It is better to remove eyelash extensions in the salon, since there are special formulations used for this purpose. But if you can’t visit the master for some reason, you can try to get rid of eyelashes on your own at home. Let's consider in more detail how to remove eyelash extensions without a special tool at home.

Before you remove eyelash extensions yourself, you should understand the features of this procedure. Everything is extremely simple - to remove eyelashes, you just need to soften the glue with which they were fixed. In the salons of the master, special creams are used to soften the glue. But at home you will have to do without a remover, and without a debonder, so you need to act very carefully. If everything is done correctly, then using improvised means you can carry out the procedure in a few minutes.

The most popular home methods are as follows:

• using vegetable oil;
• using baby cream;
• steaming method;
• with the help of Albucid.

For quick and safe eyelash removal vegetable oils. It is best to use olive or vegetable. They are inexpensive and, when compared with other oils, are less likely to cause allergies. If there is castor or almond - also good. These oils are able not only to soften the glue, but also to care for the delicate skin around the eyes. And you can also use less popular oils: coconut, burdock, corn, almond, peach.

You can remove eyelash extensions using any oil as follows:

1. pour a small amount of oil into a plastic container and heat in a microwave; it is important not to overheat, so that the oil is only slightly warm;
2. with a cotton swab, apply oil on the eyelashes of the lower eyelid;
3. the oil will be slightly absorbed into the skin, so after a few minutes you can make an additional application.

If not all cilia peeled off the first time, then the exact same procedure can be repeated the next day.

When using the cream, it is also important to consider the following nuances:

• cream choice - the product must be oily; very good if the composition contains the above oils;
• the most optimal is baby cream - it does not cause irritation and is affordable;
• It is better to refuse to use Vaseline for this purpose.

The technique for applying the cream is exactly the same as the oil. The only difference is that warming up the cream is not required. But the cream is not able to soften the glue in 30 minutes, so it should last on cilia for at least 2 hours.

On glue for eyelash extensions you can steam. To do this, boil water in a saucepan, tilt your face to it, and cover yourself with a towel on top. Steam should be applied to the eyelashes for 7 to 10 minutes. It is quite possible (if the extension procedure was carried out qualitatively) that after steaming, the eyelashes will not peel off. In this case, as an addition, you can apply the first method - removal using oils.

You can remove eyelashes with an inexpensive medicine - this eye drops "Albucid". Drops should be abundantly moistened with a cotton pad, which should be wiped with eyelashes about 5-6 times.

Before carrying out the procedure, you need to think about precautions. The fact is that during the actions you can get injuries and burns. In particular, when steaming, you can burn the skin with steam. To prevent this from happening, water should not be very hot. Also, do not tilt your face too close. When using cream or oils, it is important to ensure that these substances do not get into the eyes, otherwise, you may get irritation or even a burn of the mucous membrane. If everything is done correctly and accurately, then get rid of artificial eyelashes in a few minutes.
