If you’ve been thinking about getting a lash lift in North Lakes, one of the first questions you’re probably asking is: how long does it actually last?
The short answer is 6 to 8 weeks. But how long your results last depends on a few key factors — and with the right aftercare, you can keep your lashes looking lifted and curled for the full 8 weeks.
At Iconic Brow N Lash and Iconic Brow Wax N Beauty, both located inside Westfield North Lakes, our certified lash technicians perform professional lash lifts using premium products for natural, long-lasting results.
What Is a Lash Lift?
A lash lift (also called a lash perm) is a semi-permanent treatment that curls and lifts your natural lashes from the base. Unlike eyelash extensions, there is nothing added to your lashes — it simply enhances what you already have.
- Treatment time: approximately 45 minutes
- Results last: 6-8 weeks
- Price at Iconic Brow N Lash: from $75 (Lash Lift) or $90 (Lash Lift + Tint)
What Factors Affect How Long a Lash Lift Lasts?
1. Your natural lash growth cycle – Everyone’s lashes grow at a different rate. Most clients find their lash lift lasts between 6 and 8 weeks before needing a top-up.
2. Aftercare in the first 24 hours – Avoid getting your lashes wet, rubbing your eyes, or applying mascara. The lifting solution needs time to fully set.
3. Oil-based products – Avoid oil-based cleansers, eye creams or makeup removers around your eyes. Oil breaks down the lift faster.
4. Sleeping habits – Sleeping face-down can cause your lashes to lose their shape. Sleeping on your back helps maintain the lift longer.
5. Mascara use – Use a water-based mascara rather than waterproof, as waterproof formulas require stronger removers that can affect the lift.
Lash Lift Aftercare Tips
- First 24 hours: No water, steam, sweat or makeup on lashes
- First 48 hours: Avoid swimming or saunas
- Ongoing: Use a lash serum to keep lashes healthy
- Avoid: Oil-based products near the eye area
- Brush: Gently brush lashes daily with a clean spoolie
- Book a top-up: Every 6-8 weeks
How Long Does a Lash Lift and Tint Last?
The lift lasts 6–8 weeks, but the tint fades sooner, usually after 3–4 weeks. A lash tint darkens the lashes so the lift shows up without mascara. Because the tint sits on the surface of the hair while the lift changes its shape, the colour washes out before the curl drops.
Most of our clients book a lash lift and tint together every 6–8 weeks and are happy to let the tint fade a little in between. If you have very fair lashes, a quick lash tint on its own around the 3-week mark keeps the definition going until your next lift.
