Biggest concern about the Lash "Em liquid liner is, the rule of thumb has always been to stay away from water-proof make-up/ eyeliner with lash extensions. But you’re saying if safe to use and water-proof? Please help me understand as I am always looking for a great liquid liner to wear with my extensions.

Hi Falicia,
Thank you for the great question! Waterproof mascara is extremely hard to remove so we strongly advise to NOT use on extensions. The type of oil-based remover necessary to remove waterproof mascara can harm the bond holding the eyelash extensions. Also, even with an oil-based remover, the removal process can be quite aggressive not only harming extensions but also your natural lashes. We want to keep those lashes, not lose them prematurely. That said, there are some fab mascaras that are specially formulated and safe for use on extensions and natural lashes.
Eyeliner is slightly different as it isn’t applied directly to the lashes. Types of waterproof makeup like our “Liquid Liner” are excellent options and they can be easily removed with our, “Wash and Wink Oil-Free Remover” which is also formulated for eyelash extensions.
In a nutshell:
1. Waterproof mascara and oil-based makeup remover = bad to use with eyelash extensions.
2. Waterproof eyeliner and oil-free makeup remover = ok to use with eyelash extensions.
