The lifespan of mink eyelash extensions can vary depending on several factors, but generally, they can last anywhere from 2 to 6 weeks:
- With Ideal Care: If you take good care of your mink eyelash extensions, they can last up to 4 to 6 weeks. This requires avoiding activities that might cause them to come loose prematurely, such as rubbing your eyes vigorously, and using proper lash care products. You should also avoid getting them wet for the first 24 to 48 hours after application to allow the adhesive to set properly.
- With Average Care: With normal daily activities and average care, mink lashes typically last about 2 to 3 weeks. Daily exposure to environmental factors, natural oil production from the eyelids, and the natural shedding of your own natural lashes can cause the extensions to loosen and fall out over time.
- Poor Care or Harsh Conditions: If you subject your mink lashes to harsh conditions or don't take proper care of them, they may last only 1 to 2 weeks. For example, if you frequently swim without wearing goggles, use oil-based makeup removers which can break down the adhesive, or sleep on your face, the lashes are likely to fall out more quickly.
It's important to note that everyone's natural lash growth cycle and lifestyle habits are different, so the actual lifespan of mink lashes can vary from person to person. Additionally, the quality of the mink lashes, the skill of the technician applying them, and the type of adhesive used also play a role in how long they will last.
