You know those beauty treatments that make you look like yourself but better? Well, this is my secret weapon for looking your freshest self. I’ve always wanted long and fluttery lashes but I hate the upkeep of fake lashes and the cost associated. So when I go on holiday or have an event I want to look my best for, I book a Nouveau LVL appointment and I book it at Pout Beauty. A lash lift is your best friend if you want to travel with minimal makeup or you want an extra boost in the lash department while you’re swimming, sunbathing and dancing the night away.
Here you can see my lifted lashes without mascara. I’m a total convert when it comes to LVL but the salon you choose is paramount. I’ve tried salons where the results haven’t been so great and so you really need a salon you can trust. You will need to have a patch test for this treatment which is another reason to pick a reputable salon so you don’t have to repeat the process. If you have never had this treatment, the initials stand for Length, Volume, Lift. The treatment is designed to enhance your natural lashes while taking care of them so unlike false lashes, you won’t lose your natural lashes when the lift wears off. There’s no prep, no maintenance and no lengthly after care. The lift lasts around 6-8 weeks. LVL takes around 30 mins and I get a tint aswell to ensure my lashes are as dark as I can get them.
The biggest benefit to this treatment is that your lashes look long without mascara but they look extra glam when you use mascara.
Pout Beauty is located in the heart of Chapel Allerton in Leeds and I book my treatment with the wonderful Beth. Beth is a brow specialist and she offers advice about everything from the type of lift needed as there are different options to tint shades. Here the treatment is super quick, efficient and the service is so friendly. She is also on hand with aftercare advice which while is minimal, requires you to keep your lashes dry and be careful when removing your makeup as any wiping or moisture can affect the curl.
You are left with instant fluttery beautiful lashes.
So what is the cost for a treatment like this? At Pout Beauty it’s £59. I would always be wary of any salon offering it cheaper as this treatment is performed on a sensitive eye area so it is essential you only have it at a salon where staff are trained to offer it. All salons are different but if you want to book LVL at Pout Beauty you will need to get a patch test 48 hours before you plan to have the lash lift.
