Summer is the season for effortless beauty, and nothing says laid-back glam like natural-looking lashes. Just take a cue from Kylie Jenner's au naturel aesthetic and you'll see why it's all about that fresh-faced glow this summer.
But as we soak up the sun and dive into all the fun that summer brings, it's important to adjust our beauty routines to keep our lashes looking fab without the fuss. After all, who wants to worry about mascara smudges when you could be lounging by the pool with a refreshing drink in hand?
And those sun's UV rays? They're not just a threat to your skin, they can wreak havoc on your lashes too. Even just a few minutes of exposure can leave your lashes feeling dry and brittle - no, thank you!
That's why it's crucial to have a beauty routine that not only protects but also repairs any damage. Daily SPF for your skin is a must, but don't forget to nourish and strengthen your lashes too.

LASH SAVING TIPS FOR SUMMER
1. To give your lashes a break from heavy makeup during the summer months, why not embrace a low-maintenance look? Put away the waterproof mascara (which can actually be quite drying and difficult to remove) and opt for a more natural vibe with just a quick curl of your lashes and a touch of grooming with tweezers. Sometimes less is more, especially when it comes to summer beauty.
2. Don't forget to keep those lashes clean. Sweat, oils, and dirt buildup can wreak havoc on your lash line, especially during summer activities like workouts and pool days. Buildup can create an environment for bacteria to thrive and potentially cause infections or irritation. Stay cool and dry whenever possible, and blot away any excess sweat to keep your lashes clean and healthy. Be sure to cleanse your lashes daily with an oil-free cleanser and a soft spoolie brush to remove any buildup and keep them looking fresh.
3. Protect your lashes from UV rays. Invest in a pair of sunglasses that provide UV protection to shield your lashes (and eyes) from the sun's harmful rays. This can help prevent damage and keep your lashes looking their best.
4. Treat your lashes gently, especially when they're wet or coated with sunscreen. Avoid rubbing or tugging to prevent breakage and fallout. Use a gentle eye makeup remover to cleanse them thoroughly at the end of the day.
5. Thinking about lash extensions for summer? Proceed carefully. While they offer a glamorous look, they can also be prone to damage, especially in hot, humid weather. Choose a reputable salon and follow proper aftercare guidelines, like using a lash serum, to keep your lashes looking in tip-top condition.
6. Your lashes, like the rest of your body, benefit from a healthy diet rich in vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants. Incorporate foods that are high in nutrients like vitamin E, biotin, and omega-3 fatty acids to support lash health from the inside out.
7. And of course, show your lashes some love with daily conditioning from a lash serum. A swipe of our Lash Growth Serum is all it takes to keep them looking healthy and fluttery all summer long.
