The Korean Lash Lift is one of the hottest trends in the lash industry right now. To stay ahead of the game, it’s essential to have the right tools and techniques in your kit to achieve the best possible results.
The Korean Lash Lift involves mixing a viscosity controller with your lifting lotion (Step 1) and setting lotion (Step 2). A flat shield is also used during the application of Step 1.
This technique is especially effective for downward-facing, coarse, or stubborn lashes that don’t usually respond well to traditional lash lift methods.
Here’s a simple step-by-step breakdown of what you’ll need from Elleebana to perform and perfect your Korean lash lift.
1. Prep Step
Products: Silicone tape, under-eye pads, and Ultra Flex Flat Shields
Start by cleansing the lashes and applying under-eye pads for protection. Use silicone tape to secure the lids if needed, then choose your Flat Shields. These are key for the Korean method, they help the lashes lift straight from the base for that signature sleek result.
2. Mix & Apply Step
Products: Elleemix, Elleeplex Lift Lotion, microbrushes or an application brush
Mix the lift lotion with Elleemix to thicken the formula, this keeps the product exactly where you place it. Apply evenly using a microbrush or application brush to ensure every lash is coated from root to tip.
3. Processing Step
Products: Brow wrap or heat source, and a Precision Lifting Tool (PLT)
Cover the lashes with brow wrap or apply gentle heat to help the solution process evenly. Use your PLT to check the lashes as they process, this ensures you get the perfect lift without over-processing.
4. Flex Check Step
Products: Elleebana Tweezers and cotton tips
Gently bend a lash to check flexibility. If it bends easily into a “V” shape, it’s ready for the next step. If it still feels springy, give it a little more time.
5. Setting Prep Step
Products: Flex Rods, Flex Shields or Flex Hybrid Shields
Choose the tool that best suits your client’s lashes , rods give more curl, while shields create a stronger lift. This step shapes the final look of the lash.
6. Processing Step (Setting)
Products: Elleeplex Setting Lotion and Elleemix
Apply the setting lotion (Step 2) to lock the new curl into place. Timing will depend on your client’s lash type and strength.
7. Removal
Products: Cotton tips, kidney dish, and water
Once processing is complete, gently remove any residue using water and cotton tips. Take care to keep lashes clean and separated for a flawless finish.
8. Tint & Nourish
Products: Elleebana Protective Balm, Tint, ReGEN, and Protective Eye Guards
After lifting, tinting adds extra definition. Finish by applying ReGEN or a nourishing balm to strengthen and hydrate the lashes.
9. Aftercare
Products: Elleeplex Advanced Aftercare or Elleeplex Hyaluronic Boost Serum
Remind your clients to avoid moisture and makeup for 24 hours after their service. Recommend using Elleebana aftercare daily to keep lashes strong and extend the lift results.
