Patch Test for Eyelash Extensions
A Patch Test done before your Eyelash Extensions is helpful, if you have experienced an allergic reaction or you are concerned that you may react to Eyelash Extensions.
This is a way of determining whether you are allergic to the products I will be using during your appointments. By using a small amount of product on both eyes, we can detect whether you will have a reaction.
This is a 30-45 minutes procedure done at least 48 hours before your full service, will help us determine if you are allergic to an Eyelash Extension Adhesive.
Do I Need a Patch Test for Eyelash Extensions?
- If you have reacted in the past, you definitely need a Patch Test.
- If you have reacted to Lash Extensions, it is the Adhesive you are reacting to.
- We definitely want to find out with a quick test, rather than with a complete set of lash extensions.

Important: I do want to mention that testing cannot be considered 100% accurate. However, if you do not show any sensitivity to the products I use we will feel more comfortable proceeding with a full service.
If you have had a reaction to Eyelash Adhesive you should always go to your Doctor.
How I perform a Patch Test
I apply 10 single lash extensions onto each eye using the Adhesive I have chosen for you. These single lash extensions blend right into your natural lashes.
We are looking for any Redness, Swelling or Itching that will happen 24 – 48 hours after
If there are no symptoms, we can proceed with your full service.
