The popular Xtreme Length Mascara has gotten an upgrade — it’s now called the Xtreme Lashes Length & Volume Mascara, and we sell it right here in the Boutique! The Vitamin B5-enriched conditioning formula hasn’t changed, as you’ll still get the same deeply pigmented color without clumps, flakes or smudges, but the newly redesigned volume-boosting brush coats and thickens each lash from base to tip for the ultimate combination of length and volume.

And if you mention our Fall Promotion during your next appointment (October and November only), you can take 15% off the product!

BIG congrats to my friends over at Xtreme Lashes! As you know, the only eyelash extensions I use in my studio are by Xtreme Lashes, the best in the industry. And Xtreme Lashes has just been honored with the 2010 Beauty Launchpad Readers Choice Award for Best Eyelash Extensions! Industry professionals across the country select the winners for these prestigious awards, so I’m thrilled for the Xtreme Lashes team.

Xtreme Lashes GlideLiner also took the top honor for Best Eyeliner (which I love and sell in my studio for $29). Click here for more info about this amazing eyeliner, which can be used with or without lash extensions.

As you know, I sell many products in my studio that help enhance the beauty and life of your lash extensions. One of them is the Xtreme Heated Eyelash Curler ($35). Please note that you should never use a crimping curler on your extensions, as it can break your lashes or cause them to fall out prematurely. But if you do want to opt for a more dramatic look for a hot date or special occasion, this gentle heated eyelash curler safely applies a long-lasting curl that is non-damaging to your new lash extensions. The curler includes the added benefit of combing and smoothing lashes with its patented comb-style head. Feel free to ask me more about this product during your next appointment.

I just stumbled across this great tip on Allure.com about how to prolong the life of your eyelash extensions:

Use a face wipe. “After I get lash extensions, I avoid getting my face wet for a few days in order to keep them intact. I use a wipe to clean my face.” —Heather Muir, beauty news editor

I definitely recommend not getting your lashes wet during the first 24 hours of an application and to take care when washing your face (go light on rubbing your eyes). Cleansing with face wipes will make this even easier to remove dirt and debris from your face and around the delicate eye area. Though I highly recommend using the Xtreme Eye Makeup Remover (I sell it in my studio for $32) with a Q-tip, cleansing wipes are very convenient. I like Philosphy’s One-Step Facial Cleansing Cloths ($20, Sephora) or Neutrogena’s Night Calming Cleansing Towelettes ($8, drugstores), which have a nice, soothing scent.

I am now offering a brand-new service to Lash Boutique — eyebrow and eyelash tinting! A perfectly safe procedure, eyebrow and eyelash tinting is done with a permanent dye that is safe for use near the eyes and eyelids. The tint can last anywhere from six to eight weeks — brows and lashes will need to be touched up as hairs fall out and are replaced naturally through regrowth.

This procedure is quick, painless and perfect for those with extremely light, hard-to-see brows or lashes or for those who simply want to match their brows to their newly dyed hair color. It is an easy, two-step process that takes little more than 10 minutes.

Prices for Lash Boutique eyebrow and eyelash tinting are as follows:

• Eyebrows — $45
• Upper lashes — $40
• Lower lashes — $25

Don’t hesitate to contact me if you have any questions or would like to book an appointment!

Check out more info on the cosmetics line offered by Xtreme Lashes! Many of these products are perfectly safe for use on lash extensions and natural lashes. I currently sell many of these products in my studio, including the GlideLiner Eye Pencil in Black, Xtreme Length Mascara in Black, Eye Makeup Remover, Protective Coating, Heated Eyelash Curler and more. The most popular items are both the GlideLiner and Xtreme Length Mascara — I wear them daily with or without extensions!

As you may know, I’m a HUGE fan of the GlideLiner Eye Pencil by Xtreme Lashes. This long-lasting eyeliner is amazing because it combines the benefits of a liquid liner with the ease of a traditional pencil. The innovative gel structure glides on gently and smoothly, allowing you to achieve a precise, defined line or a smudged, smoky look — the choice is yours and is a great way to make your eyes pop when you need a little something extra. While the liner is specially formulated for use with eyelash extensions (it doesn’t tug or pull at your lashes), it can also be worn with natural lashes. I wear it all the time! You can purchase the GlideLiner Eye  Pencil in my studio for $29, available in Black. You can also order the liner in more colors off of the Xtreme Lashes website — Black Pearl, Graphite, Xtreme Black, Golden Olive, Midnight Blue, Plum and Xpresso.
