How to Protect Your Lash Extensions During Hot & Humid Months
Summer in Boynton Beach means sun, beach days, and poolside relaxation, but it also brings heat, humidity, and sweat—all of which can affect your lash extensions. If you want to keep your lashes looking fresh, fluffy, and long-lasting, proper care is essential.
At Eyeconic Lash Studio, we want to help you protect your investment and enjoy gorgeous lashes all summer long. Here’s everything you need to know about summer lash care!
1. Avoid Excessive Heat & Steam
High temperatures and steam can weaken the lash adhesive, causing premature lash shedding. To keep your lashes intact:
✔ Avoid hot saunas, steam rooms, and long hot showers
✔ Be cautious around grills, ovens, and campfires
✔ After swimming or sweating, gently pat your lashes dry
💡 Pro Tip: Use a mini handheld fan to keep your lashes dry after being in the heat!
2. Be Cautious with Sunscreen & Skincare Products
While SPF is a must in summer, many sunscreens contain oil-based ingredients that can break down lash adhesive. To keep your lashes safe:
✔ Use an oil-free sunscreen and facial products
✔ Apply sunscreen carefully, avoiding the eye area
✔ If sunscreen gets on your lashes, clean them with a lash-safe cleanser
💡 Pro Tip: Use an oil-free setting spray to set your makeup and protect your lashes from sweat!
3. Swim Smart: Protect Your Lashes in the Pool & Ocean
Chlorine and saltwater can dry out lash extensions and weaken the adhesive. While you don’t have to avoid swimming, here’s how to keep your lashes safe:
✔ Wear swim goggles if you’ll be in the water for a long time
✔ Rinse your lashes with fresh water after swimming
✔ Gently pat dry your lashes with a lint-free towel
💡 Pro Tip: Avoid rubbing your eyes or wiping lashes aggressively—this can cause shedding!
4. Keep Your Lashes Clean & Brushed
Sweat, sunscreen, and humidity can build up on your lashes, leading to clumping and premature fallout. To keep them fresh:
✔ Clean your lashes daily with a lash-safe cleanser
✔ Use a soft-bristle brush or spoolie to keep them fluffy
✔ Avoid touching your lashes throughout the day
💡 Pro Tip: Bring a travel-sized lash cleanser in your beach bag for quick touch-ups!
5. Stay on Top of Lash Fills
Lash extensions naturally shed, but during summer, heat and humidity can speed up the process. To keep your lashes looking full:
✔ Book lash fills every 2-3 weeks
✔ Schedule fills before vacations or big summer events
✔ Communicate with your lash artist if you notice faster shedding
💡 Pro Tip: Avoid waiting until your lashes look sparse—regular fills keep them looking flawless!
