We Tried It: Lash Tinting!

We at BeautyNow love Edward Sanchez Vanity Lounge in West Ave.  Such a chic space, great location, and, of course, talented technicians like the famous and fabulous Edward Sanchez himself.  The perfect place to experiment with lash tinting!

Although it may sound counter-intuitive, I wanted to get my lashes dyed to be more LOW maintenance.  It is so much trouble to put on mascara in the morning with a toddler tugging at your leg, but my lashes are blond at the tips and I wanted a little more definition for my eyes without any hassle.
Vanity Lounge uses a special dye from Austria that comes in 25 different shades.  I just wanted normal black, but Edward convinced me to go with the Violet color and assured me that I would not look like a weirdo.

The whole lash dye process took only 15 minutes, and was pretty pampering.  Edward put a Bioelements cooling, hydrating eye mask under my eyes while I waited for the dye to set.

Ready for the Before and After?

I love it!  With lash tinting you do not get the fullness or extra length that comes with mascara, but you get just enough definition for your eyes to be appropriate for daytime.  This could be a good thing for me– I tend to be a little lashorexic, always thinking “they are not long enough!!” And then I see a picture of myself, and I am approaching Tammy Faye territory.  Case in point, see below: just hanging with my boys before bedtime, but my lashes are all dressed up with no place to go…

Nothing is sweeter than a baby falling asleep on you!

Lash tinting at Edward Sanchez Vanity Lounge: $20, and it lasts 4-6 weeks.  To me, this is a beauty no-brainer, and I am definitely adding lash tinting to my regular maintenance routine!
