LEARN TO LASH WITH MEL
Follow along with Mel as she takes you through the basics of LeCil DIY lash extensions application.
Step-by-Step Application Guide:
1. Preparation:
Before you begin, ensure all makeup is removed and lashes are free of natural oils. For optimal results, cleanse with LeCil's recommended cleanser and let your lashes dry. This step is crucial for the best adhesive results.
2. Bond Application:
Carefully apply a super thin layer of LeCil bonding agent along the underside of your lashes. The key here is precision and patience. Wait a few minutes for the bond to become tacky, then reapply for maximum hold. Less is more for a lasting bond without compromising lash health.
3. Lash Placement:
With the LeCil applicator, gently place the lash clusters under your natural lashes. They should slightly overlap to mimic a natural lash line. Remember, avoid direct contact with the waterline to prevent irritation.
4. Fusing the Lashes:
Once placed, clear any excess bond from the applicator and use the LeCil Seal product. Clamp the lashes firmly onto your natural lashes to set the bond and ensure a secure fit. Allow a brief drying period.
5. Sealing:
The final touch involves applying the sealant to both the top and bottom of the lash line where the extensions meet the natural lashes. The sealant cures the bond and adds extra strength.
6. Gentle Removal:
When it’s time to remove your lashes, use LeCil's REMOVE product to release the lashes softly. Hold a soaked cotton round over your eye for a brief period, then gently wipe away the lashes, ensuring no bond residue is left behind.
Conclusion:
LeCil's DIY Eyelash Extensions offer a professional look with the comfort and convenience of home application. With our guide, you can ensure a flawless look that enhances your natural beauty. Always refer to LeCil’s complete video tutorials for more detailed visual instructions.
LeCil Lash Care: Ensuring Lasting Beauty
1. Be Patient:
- For the first 24-48 hours, avoid getting your lashes wet. Our unique DIY system requires a tad more curing time than salon extensions. But rest assured, post-curing, they are water warriors!
2. Hands Off:
- Your lashes are tempting, but try to limit touching them. Let them be and they'll thank you with longevity.
3. Makeup:
- Keep mascaras and eyeliners at bay. Your LeCil lashes bring all the drama you need.
4. Oil Alert:
- Oil-based products are a no-go around the eyes. They can weaken the bond. Instead, opt for oil-free removers and cleansers.
5. Gentle, Always:
- When taking off makeup, be as gentle as a whisper. Your lashes will appreciate the tender love.
6. Sleep Right:
- We all have our favorite sleeping positions, but try to avoid face-planting. If a cluster does dislodge, it's a quick fix! Just secure it back with a touch of bond and seal.
7. Showering? Be Wise:
- Showers are refreshing, but direct water jets can be too harsh. Be gentle and pat-dry instead of rubbing.
8. In Case of Drench:
- Got caught in a rain dance? A thin coat of our seal can reinforce the bond.
9. Flaunt with Confidence:
With proper care, your LeCil lashes are ready for any adventure. Step out, bat those lashes, and enjoy every compliment coming your way!
Mastering DIY Lash Extensions: A Guide to Flawless Application & Lasting Hold
We understand there's a learning curve with DIY lash extensions. But with a dash of patience and practice, you'll be on your way to flaunting enviable, lasting lashes. Some of our customers have sported them for over 2 weeks!
1. Prep for Perfection:
Cleanliness is key. Start with oil-free eyelids and lashes to ensure the best adhesion. For optimal results, we recommend using LeCil CLEANSE. Its also a good idea to apply in the morning so your lashes have all day to set before you shower & sleep.
2. Mind the BOND:
More isn't always better. Especially with a fresh BOND tube, moderation is key. Too much can lead to sliding lashes, stickiness, or clumps. Imagine painting a wall: You'd let one coat dry before applying another. The same principle applies here. Allow the BOND to get tacky between thin applications. If you're short on time, the LeCil elevate fan or even a low-setting hair dryer can expedite the drying process. If you are constantly in water, have naturally oily skin and or sleep on your face you may need to upgrade to BOND X or DUO.
3. Place with Precision:
Keep the clusters away from the waterline. Not only is this more comfortable, but it ensures better adherence. Aim to see the base of your natural lashes during application and overlap clusters by about 1mm for a cohesive and durable grip.
4. Fusion is Fundamental:
Don't rush this step. Firmly press the lashes onto your natural ones using the applicators. This bonds them securely and ensures a natural appearance. Pop a bit of seal on the applicators to avoid them sticking to your lashes.
5. Seal the Deal with SEAL:
The SEAL isn't just an afterthought—it's essential. It cures the BOND, solidifying its waterproof and lasting properties. To ensure comprehensive coverage, smear the SEAL onto your applicator during the fusion step.
6. Master your aftercare:
Once your lashes are perfectly in place, ensure they stay that way by following our aftercare guide, available on this page and in our post-purchase emails. Remember: Consistent care equals longer-lasting lash glamour!

Glowing with those LeCil lashes and need a makeup redo? Here’s how to keep those lashes flawless while you clear the canvas:
1. Gentle is the Golden Rule:
Your skin and lashes will thank you. No rubbing or pulling. Patience is your friend here.
2. The Right Tools:
Soft cotton pads or microfiber cloths work wonders. They're kind to your skin and your lash extensions.
3. Choosing the Cleanser:
Oil-free is the way to go. Oil can weaken the adhesive bond of your lashes. Our suggestion? LeCil CLEANSE ensures safe and effective makeup removal.
4. Master the Technique:
For eye makeup, use a soaked cotton pad in remover and gently press against the makeup area, then swipe inwards gently, making sure you're not brushing against the lash extensions.
5. Eyeliner and Shadows:
For eyeliner or shadows close to the lash line, use a Q-tip soaked in makeup remover. This gives you more precision, ensuring you don't disturb your lash extensions.
6. Mascara (if you have on your lower lashes):
Place a cotton pad below your lower lashes, then gently swipe down. Be careful not to touch the extensions.
7. Complete Cleanse:
After makeup removal, use a gentle, oil-free cleanser to ensure your skin is free from any makeup residue.
8. Lash Love:
If you feel any adhesive or makeup remnants around the lashes, use a Q-tip with a little LeCil CLEANSE to carefully clean the lash line.
Final Thought:
Freshen up with hydration after makeup removal. Just ensure your skincare products steer clear of your lash extensions.
