Is it possible to renovate the house

Carrying out the Velvet procedure at home is possible only with the existing experience in this direction.

• Saving money.
• No need to waste time looking for a master.

2. Select the desired bend and color.
3. Cleanse your face with a cotton swab.
4. Silicone pads should be placed on the eyelids, capturing the eyelashes.

For further care, a mixture of oils is used, which will fix the result and make the eyelashes even stronger and thicker.

How long does velveteen last

Velvet lasts about 8 weeks. But from some factors the effect may decrease or increase.

What affects the preservation of the result:

• Frequent visits to places with high humidity (swimming pool, sauna).
• Daily use of decorative cosmetics and makeup remover.
• The experience of the master who performed the procedure.
• The quality of the funds used for the procedure.
• Additional care with a complex of oils.

• Natural curl of eyelashes. It is believed that the more curved the eyelashes, the longer the composition lasts.
• Eyelash growth rate.

How often can the procedure be done?

Eyelash corduroy (the procedure is carried out only by a certified master) allows eyelashes to grow freely. They renew themselves naturally. This takes about 3 months. During this time, new hairs will grow, which will no longer have Velvet composition. Therefore, the procedure can be carried out once 3 months.

What can be done after the procedure

The main requirement is not to touch your eyelashes, not to wash your face for 6 hours, and also to avoid high humidity in the room. But all requirements end after the end of this time, while eyelash extension carries certain restrictions in everyday life.

The effect will not decrease even if:

• Sleep with your face in a pillow like some people like... Extended eyelashes can be damaged and fall off along with the native hairs, which will not happen after Velvet.
• Take a high-pressure shower... While the eyelashes from the extension can bend unnaturally from strong pressure.
• Swim in the sea... Salt water does not harm the applied formulations in any way.
• Visiting places with high humidity... These include saunas, baths, swimming pools. It is even allowed to bathe in the bath.
• The paint is not washed off even under heavy rain... In the rain, mascara creates a "panda eye effect" on the face. Velvet is not afraid of rains.
• Use decorative cosmetics... Extended eyelashes are difficult to give in to mascara. They can stick together. Velvet, on the other hand, promotes better application of cosmetics to the eyes.

• Carry out makeup remover using your usual eyelashes. "Velvet" will provide easy removal of cosmetics, without pressing movements on the eyes.

What is the difference between "Velvet" and lamination "Botox for eyelashes"

Velvet formulations are applied to the roots and tips of the eyelashes, and the lamination is distributed primarily to the tips. Lamination involves the use of silicone. Thanks to it, eyelashes thicken and lengthen. At the same time, there is a minus - from silicone eyelashes can be tough to the touch, similar to extended ones.

Corduroy does not imply the use of silicone. In the procedure, it has been replaced with corduroy essence. Thanks to her, the hairs look more natural, without the effect of eyelash extensions. There will be no feeling of heaviness in the eyes, "doll" eyelashes. Due to the lack of silicone in Velvet, the eyelashes do not tangle during regrowth, they look just as natural.

Velvet is an innovative eyelash modeling procedure.

Having a small number of contraindications, it makes eyelashes dark, thick and curled. But to avoid harm, you need to contact a certified master at a beauty salon.
