Allergic Reaction Protocol
to Lash Extension Adhesive

Swelling, tenderness or redness can be symptoms of an allergic reaction. Please follow the steps below:

 

1. Professional Lash Extension removal is the first action of defense. Contact Flutters to book an appointment for a lash removal.

2. Take Benadryl & apply liquid Flonase to all skin around the eyes to help relieve symptoms.

3. Apply cold packs to help reduce swelling.

4. Contact us for Professional lash removal.

​

Symptoms can reside for a day or two after removal.

​

Improperly applied Lashes may cause itching, poking, possible redness:

 

1. Lash Extensions attached to the skin. 

2.Multiple natural lashes glued together.

 

Lash extensions should always be professionally removed.

​

Flutters Lash takes every precaution to avoid improper application of lash extensions. 

​

After the lashes are removed, if swelling and irritation persists more than a day or two:

 

1.) Contact your eye doctor.

2.) Visit an after hours medical clinic or ER for further examination and treatment..

 

While allergic reactions are rare, about 3% may respond negatively to adhesives near the eyes.

​

Flutters offers a variety of sensitive adhesives that can be tested on a client beforehand. Schedule an Allergy Test, for a fee, if you may be allergic. Ordinarily, once the body has reacted to lash extension adhesives, it usually continues to react thereafter.
