Your Ultimate Guide to a Flawless At-Home Lash Lift: 5 Mistakes to Avoid
Share
The dream of waking up with perfectly curled, beautiful lashes—without the daily battle with a mechanical curler—is now a reality. The "no curler lash" life isn't just for expensive salons anymore. With a high-quality system like the Adornshop Lash Lift Kit, you can achieve stunning, long-lasting results from the comfort of your home.
But if you're new to the world of DIY lash lifts, you might be a little nervous. Don't be! We're here to walk you through the process and, more importantly, highlight the common mistakes to avoid. Follow this guide, and you'll be on your way to achieving the perfect lift that lasts for up to 8 incredible weeks.
The Prep: Setting Yourself Up for Success
Before you even open the perm solution, proper preparation is key. A clean canvas ensures the lifting solutions can work their magic effectively.
- Start Squeaky Clean: Thoroughly cleanse your eye area, removing all traces of makeup, oil, and skincare. Any residue can create a barrier and lead to a weak or uneven curl.
- Choose Your Curl: The Adornshop kit comes with various silicone rod sizes for a reason! This is your chance to customize your look. For a dramatic, doll-like curl, choose a smaller rod. For a more natural, gentle lift, opt for a larger one.
The Process: A Step-by-Step Path to Perfection
Here’s where the transformation happens. We'll focus on the crucial steps and how to master them.
Mistake #1: Not Getting a Secure Bond
The Problem: Your natural lashes won't stick to the silicone rod, causing them to slip off during the process, resulting in a failed lift.
The Fix: Apply a thin, even layer of the provided adhesive to the back of the silicone rod and place it firmly along your lash line. Wait about 30 seconds for the glue to get tacky. Then, apply another thin layer of glue to the front of the rod. Using a clean tool, carefully and patiently press your lashes upwards onto the rod. Make sure every single lash is separated and securely adhered before moving on. The Adornshop kit’s generous supply of 100 micro brushes is perfect for this precise work.
Mistake #2: Applying Too Much Solution
The Problem: Applying the perm or setting lotion all the way to the tips of your lashes can cause them to look frizzy or over-processed.
The Fix: Apply the solutions only to the root and middle of the lashes—the part that is being reshaped on the curve of the rod. Avoid the tips completely. This ensures you get a beautiful lift from the base without damaging the delicate ends of your lashes.
Mistake #3: Not Following the Timing Instructions
The Problem: Leaving the solutions on for too long can over-process your lashes, while not leaving them on long enough will result in a weak curl that doesn’t last.
The Fix: Timing is everything! Adhere strictly to the times recommended in your Adornshop kit instructions. Set a timer on your phone for each step to ensure accuracy. Don't guess!

You’ve done it! Now it's time to ensure your gorgeous "no curler lashes" last as long as possible.
Mistake #4: Getting Your Lashes Wet Too Soon
The Problem: Exposing your newly lifted lashes to water, steam, or mascara within the first 24 hours can deactivate the lifting formula and cause your curl to drop.
The Fix: This is the most critical rule of aftercare. For 24 hours post-lift, you must keep your lashes completely dry. This means no steamy showers, no swimming, no saunas, and absolutely no mascara. Let the curl fully set.
Mistake #5: Using the Wrong Skincare or Makeup
The Problem: Oil-based cleansers, makeup removers, and waterproof mascaras can weaken the bond of the lift, causing it to relax prematurely.
The Fix: After the initial 24 hours, switch to oil-free products around your eye area. When you do wear mascara, choose a water-based formula that is easy to remove. This will help you enjoy the full 8-week potential of your Adornshop lash lift.
