Elleebana Flex Rods vs. Flex Shields: Choosing the Right Tool for Flawless Lash Lifts - 2 Jun 2023

The Elleebana Flex Rods have taken the lash world by storm and for good reason. Crafted with ultra-soft silicone, these rods offer unparalleled comfort during the lash lift process. Their superior grip ensures secure placement, eliminating the need for adhesive on the rod for 99.9% of clients. The result? Faster application time and a worry-free experience, free from skin irritation caused by adhesives.

Since receiving an abundance of positive feedback from artists worldwide, we have been working tirelessly to create the same advancements for our Elleebana Extreme Styling Shields. With the goal of accommodating all eye shapes, we were excited to announce our latest development – Elleebana Flex Shields.
