“The application of eyelash extensions is a meticulous and delicate work that requires experience, because the eye area is very sensitive,” says Dr. Peterson Pierre, a certified specialist in dermatology and cosmetic dermatology at the Pierre Skin Care Institute.

In addition, the expert advises:
Wash your hands and use clean and disinfected tweezers.

  • Check the labels of all the products you use to make sure they do not contain chemical compounds to which you are allergic.
  • The adhesive you use must be pharmaceutical grade and safe to use around the eyes.
  • Rinse the area immediately after application to remove any adhesive residue.
