Along these lines, basically since I began wearing cosmetics, I've depended on a decent eyelash styler and mascara to give myself the Kar-lash-ian look. Bunches of my companions get lash expansions, and in spite of the fact that they look stunning, I've never truly thought to be attempting it. As I would like to think, they don't keep going sufficiently long for the amount they can cost (in NYC they're about $170 for a full set and $95 for touch-ups at regular intervals). Besides, I've heard you can get startling diseases on the off chance that you attempt to shabby out on the treatment, so I long back chose that my regular lashes were sufficiently fine.

That is until the point when one day when I was looking through Instagram and saw a post by Karrueche Tran on an "eyelash lift" she'd gotten. I had never known about a wonder such as this and I'm additionally a major devotee of enormous lashes, so I was quickly charmed. What was this keratin eyelash lift?! I needed to discover out.I did somewhat more burrowing and found that the Kardashian's cosmetics craftsman Hrush Achemyan additionally got the treatment done.Both Karrueche and Hrush credited L.A.- based lash authority Elysee Zhadikpur for their changes, so I contacted Elysee with expectations of experimenting with the treatment.As it turned out, Elysee would have been in New Jersey that following week educating a class on the most proficient method to do the lash lift, so she halted by Cosmopolitan.com to give me a chance to give it a shot for myself. The treatment, which she alludes to as the "keratin lash lift," costs $150 and endures eight to 12 weeks. Truly, that is all I truly expected to hear before I was prepared to have my eyes secured and spread with lash stuff, however I was additionally upbeat to hear her depict the treatment as "a characteristic approach to improve your common lashes to make a pleasant bend and lift."

She rushed to call attention to that the lash lift isn't a perm and doesn't include any brutal chemicals (no parabens or formaldehyde), yet rather it's her ~top secret~ procedure she utilizes while applying keratin to the lashes that makes the outcomes so incredible.To begin the five-advance process, which took 90 minutes through and through, I set down on the sofa and close my eyes. Elysee connected cushions on my eyelids and under my eyes, and after that started brushing my lashes. The entire experience was sans torment and really agreeable. It sort of felt like I was sitting with my lashes grasped between two eyelash stylers for 60 minutes, which I understand does not sound agreeable, but rather it was.While she kept on applying YumiLashes items to my eyes, which were as yet shut, she let me know she'd been honing the treatment on customers for a long time. She didn't let me know precisely what she was applying to my lashes — once more, it's a ~secret~ — yet it felt like my lashes were being brushed incalculable circumstances with a spoolie brush. Evidently, she took in the system in Switzerland, where it began in 2008, however she conveyed it over to L.A. not long after and it's been gradually getting on from that point forward. Consider Elysee the OG lash lift expert in the nation.

When she completed, she wiped my eyes clean (they had a little dark buildup around them from the item she connected), and the outcomes were instant.First thought: I had no clue I had such a large number of lashes. They truly seemed as though they had multiplied or tripled in sum and length, despite the fact that they were my same old lashes, simply twisted. Individuals around the workplace likewise saw my lift immediately and thought about how they could complete it as well.

In any case, since the treatment is so new, your most logical option is to book an arrangement at her salon in case you're ever in L.A.

Next, Elysee disclosed to me that I wasn't permitted to get my lashes wet for 48 hours following the treatment on the grounds that the item would keep on developing for two more days. In any case, from that point onward, I'd be allowed to wear mascara and cosmetics, and do any lash movement as ordinary. She additionally gave me a keratin mascara to apply morning and night to saturate and condition my lashes and keep them looking all delectable like.It's been right around seven days since I completed it, and my lashes are still similarly as long and voluminous as they were instantly after my treatment. I'm anxious to perceive how they change throughout the following couple of months, however I'm as of now so inspired by the procedure that I would likely pay $150 to complete it once more, regardless of the possibility that it didn't last the full three months.
