Types of extensible eyelashes
The technology of removal of extended eyelashes is not too complicated and identical for all types of build-up. The main thing is to know exactly which remedy (solvent) to choose.

How to understand that it's time to take off your eyelashes?
It's time to take off the extensions if:
- They begin to cause you discomfort (itches your eyes, there is a slight irritation).
- The beams begin to fall out.
We advise making correction after 15-20 days after the build-up.
Materials for removing extensions of the eyelash
You can use special professional tools that are sold in stores for beauticians or on the Internet, or use handy tools (cream, oil, etc.). Let's discuss each of them in more detail, let's look at the advantages and disadvantages.
Debonder
Debonder is an ideal option if you want to remove eyelashes quickly, without injuring the skin of the eyelid. Professional debonders do not cause allergies, some have a curative effect. According to the consistency of the funds are divided into liquid, gel and creamy. At home, it is recommended to use the last two: they are easier to apply on the eyelid and less likely to get on the mucous eyes.
Also pay attention to the composition. Do not purchase products containing acetone. Try to choose an oil-based debander with the maximum amount of natural ingredients.
Remember that even the softest formulations are designed to dissolve the glue or resin, so they contain strong chemicals. Strictly follow the instructions and preview the training video.
Fat cream
To soften the glue, you can use a cream. Choose one that is designed for thin and sensitive eyelid skin. Its texture should be as thick and greasy as possible. In extreme cases - use a child. Before applying the cream, make-up is removed from the eyes. Cream compress can be left overnight.
Oils
Immediately it is worth mentioning that if the extension used a resin or a viscous super resistant adhesive, then removing eyelashes oil will not help. In other cases, olive, castor, burdock, grape or almond oil is a natural and inexpensive solvent. The procedure can be repeated several times, if the first did not work - no harm to the skin, or natural eyelashes will not.
