The eyelash tinting procedure involves:
- cleansing eyelashes of makeup with oil-free remover,
- small amount of Vaseline is applied to the upper and lower eyelids,
- cosmetic pad applied to lower lid,
- permanent tint is carefully applied to the lashes for 5 to 10 minutes,
- tint is then removed, and eyes wiped down with cosmetic pads,

Common questions about eye treatments:
How long do your eye treatments take ?
All our treatments have approximate times as a guide, but treatments may overrun, until the procedure is complete, and the client is happy with the results. Approximate times for our eye treatments are shown below:
- Eyelash perming 45 minutes - Eyelash tinting 30 minutes,
- Eyebrow tinting 15 minutes - Eyebrow shaping 15 minutes.
How do I know if eyelash perming and tinting is a safe treatment?
Eyelash hair is particularly fine, and therefore the chemicals used in these treatments only need to be very weak, unlike the chemicals used in scalp hair. Most treatments consist of a gel rather than a liquid thus enabling greater control. If you have any further questions, feel free to ask our esthetician.
