Welcome to our online lash lift gallery! We have been lifting eyelashes in Edmonton, Alberta for over 10 years. Over time, we have collected many ‘before and after’ lash lift pictures. We update our online gallery whenever possible.
Lash Lifts work in 3 easy steps! The first step is to open the bonds in the hair, giving flexibility within the mid shaft where the curl is found. The second step sets the lashes into position and seals the hair shaft. The third step reintroduces moisture back into the lashes.
Lash lifts can last up to 12 weeks depending on after-care products used and thickness of lashes. Minimize rubbing and use gentle products on eye area. Thick lashes are more resistant and will fall faster than thin lashes.
Lash Lift and Tint
You must also avoid water, makeup, and pressure on the lashes for 48 hours. Afterwards you can return to your regular routine and products.
It is recommend that clients wait 12 weeks between lash lifts. This allows your hair to recover and regenerate new growth.
Before Booking, are there any allergies you should be aware of?
It is rare for reactions to occur as the products are kept strictly on the lashes. People who have sensitivity to latex are not recommended to have the service, as the adhesive used does contain latex.
If you have ever reacted to artificial lash glue used for strip lashes, you are at risk of having a reaction. Typical allergic reaction will cause the eyes to swell for up to 72 hours.
Located in Edmonton, we offer Lash Lift and Tint services in our spa menu. This popular service creates lift, curl, and definition to your natural lashes. The results are immediate and last between six to eight weeks.
Tint on darker lashes?
Often clients will opt for the lash lift with tint even when they have darker eyelashes. This is because it creates a bigger contrast which makes the eyelashes really pop! Especially for clients with lighter coloured eyes, adding tint to the lash lift results in the eye colour appearing brighter.
Is it safe to tint my eyelashes?
We use specialized dyes on eyelashes that have a relatively lower peroxide content of 3% as opposed to hair dye. The role of peroxide is to open up the seal of the hair.
Peroxide pops the scales of your hair up so the colour can tuck itself into the cuticle of the hair. Eventually you mask it and seal it back up. Higher percentages really open up those scales often resulting in split ends. The wider the scales are opened, the harder it is to close them once you’re done.
Relatively speaking, the 3% found in the specialized tint is very mild. It won’t completely open the hair, just enough to deposit the colour.
Lash Repair
If you love Lash Lifts and you get them regularly, we recommend treating the eyelashes with a daily conditioner will help to repair and strengthen the lashes. There are a few options available for lash and brow serums to boost the health of natural lashes. At Dérmica, we retail Adoreyes Lash and Brow serums in-store or online.
Experience the lash lift benefits for yourself! Located in Edmonton, Dérmica offers a full spa menu that includes this popular eyelash enhancement service.
During a lash lift, we use different sizes of silicone pads to “lift” each lash individually and create a subtle, natural looking curl. There are many benefits to the lash lift, let’s review a few.
Clean and classy curl finish
The full and natural yet perfect look is not the only benefit of a lash lift, but it’s a top one!
No artificial glue left to strain lashes
When it comes to the preservation of the integrity of the hair, lash lifts are gentler on the lashes in relation to other eyelash enhancement methods. For example, lash extensions require each lash to be connected to an artificial lash with adhesive 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. With the lash lift, you process one time and then work on repair.
Cost effective, no fill required
The lash lift is a very low-maintenance service in comparison to other methods. Less frequent required visits is another benefit of the lift. Someone who can’t devote time every 2-3 weeks to fills would prefer the lift because you are looking at 6-10 weeks before you need another lift (depending on your natural lashes).
Lashes remain washable and makeup friendly
You’re looking at 48 hours post-treatment where you have to be cautious. However, after this period your lashes are safe for normal wear.
Located on Whyte Ave, Dérmica offers lash lift services. Lash Lifts are a new generation perming method that is safer and more effective than traditional lash perms.
We use silicone pads to “lift” each lash individually and create a subtle, natural looking curl, giving the illusion of length for a full, natural-yet-perfect look.
Once your 45-60-minute service has wrapped up, your lashes are left with a smooth curl that can last up to 6-8 weeks!
Preparing for your appointment
While not necessary, pretreating helps to condition the lashes in preparation for the chemical process. Consider adding a Lash conditIoner to your routine. It will add enhancers to strengthen the lashes pre-service. In addition, daily use will bring you back to par post-service.

Lash lifts are a great alternative to lash extensions. This type of lash enhancement gives the lashes a natural appearance.
When it comes to the preservation of the integrity of the hair, lash lifts are gentler on the lashes. There are a couple of reasons for this. First, the lift is not an “additive” service- it works with your natural lashes. As a result, it does not require the lashes to carry the excess weight of artificial lashes constantly.
Secondly, extensions require each lash be connected to an artificial lash with adhesive 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. With the lift, you process one time and then work on repair.
Less frequent required visits is another benefit of the lift. Someone who can’t devote time every 2-3 weeks to fills would prefer the lift because you are looking at 6-10 weeks before you need another lift (depending on your natural lashes). In addition, there is less in-service time during the appointment in comparison to extensions.
Also, the lash lift is a very low-maintenance service. You’re looking at 48 hours post-treatment where you have to be cautious, as opposed to the daily care required with lash extensions.
There are many reasons why the lash lift is a good alternative to extensions.
Lash Lifts sound great! Why would anyone prefer extensions?
It all comes down to personal preference. While some people are looking for a fresh-faced appearance, others are looking for a dramatic finish.
Also, extensions provide additional length, whereas the lift provides the appearance of additional length. Extensions are good for people that can only achieve a certain length and they want more.
Do Lash Lifts damage the eyelashes?
Much like any other chemical processing service, its going to alter the natural state of the hair. Therefore, it does have an effect on the existing hair strand. It may make them dryer than usual, and in some cases (depending on the health of the lash before the treatment) it may cause some brittleness.
Pretreat to Prevent
These things are preventable by pretreating the lashes with a lash serum or moisturizer. Pretreating helps to condition the lashes in preparation for the chemical process. For example, when getting your hair done, its always best to condition and mask prior to your hair colouring service. You would take a similar approach with the lashes.
Repair
After you get your hair processed, you usually start using more conditioner or hair masks in an effort to repair. You wanna do the same for your lashes. Lash conditIoner will not only bring you back to par, but take it further by adding conditioner and enhancers that were not there before. It will replenish what you lost but also add.
LashLIFT is a gentle lash perming service that delivers a semi-permanent curl. The process begins with your lashes being strategically fanned and positioned on a fitted silicone pad prior to the 2-step treatment. Once your 45-60-minute service has wrapped up, your lashes are left with a smooth curl that can last up to 6-8 weeks!
Perfect pairings for your LASHLIFT!
If you’re looking for a defined lash-line pair your LashLIFT with a Lash Tint to really make those lashes stand out. The added color intensifies the lashes and brings out fine hairs that aren’t always able to support mascara. This is great combination for those days in the sun and water, no need for heavy waterproof mascara or bye-bye melted lash lines.
Although a LashLIFT can’t get you the length you want, pairing your service with the EyEnvy Lash and Brow Conditioner will! This super serum boosts your hair natural growth and gets your lashes to their max length by nourishing new growth with nutrients. Apply once a day and your lashes will look and stronger within minimum 6 weeks!
