Lash tinting darkens your natural lashes, so they look fuller and more defined without mascara. It is especially helpful if your lashes are light, fair or hard to see at the tips.
A tint made for the eye area is applied to your lashes while your eyes stay closed, then gently removed. It is often paired with a lash lift.
Come without eye makeup if you can. Tell us about any past reaction to lash tints or hair dye. We may do a patch test first.
You lie back with your eyes closed while the tint sits for a few minutes. The appointment is quick.
You can go back to your day right away. Avoid rubbing your eyes and oil-based makeup removers for the first day.
Your lashes look darker right away. The color usually lasts 4 to 6 weeks.
