In general it is not advisable to use mascara with your eyelash extensions. The main reason why is very simple: the whole point of eyelash extensions is that they already look darker, longer and fuller. In other words, they’re made to look like you’ve already used mascara at all times. One of the biggest benefits of eyelash extensions is that you’d never have to apply mascara while you still have them.
However, sometimes there can be circumstances where you would still want to apply mascara to your extensions. Maybe the lashes you chose are finer or smaller, or there’s a special event where you really want them to look fuller and thicker. Your extensions might also be older and they might have some gaps, and mascara can help cover up those gaps and damage in the short term before you get them touched up or replaced.
If you do decide to use mascara for any of the reasons mentioned above, be advised that you should be very particular of what mascara you use and how you should use it. First of all, you should only ever use water-based mascara product. Never use oil-based or waterproof mascara products as they will dissolve the glue holding your extensions to your eyelids and can dry your lashes out . Even if your lashes survive that, the process and products used to remove that kind of mascara would damage the lashes or dissolve the glue. So make sure that the mascara and makeup removal product are both water-based and very light, otherwise you’re just wasting the money to get the extensions in the first place. (See list of mascara that's acceptable for use below)
You’ll need to be extra careful when you apply and remove the mascara on your eyelash extensions too. When applying, avoid applying to the roots of the extensions and focus only on the middle to the tip. Applying too much mascara from the base to the tip makes them heavier, more likely to pull the lashes out, and make it more difficult to remove it afterwards. If you find your mascara pulls on the lashes too much they could be damaged or weakened. When removing, use oil-free makeup remover for the exact same reasons. Then follow-up with your lash cleanser to make sure your lashes are extra, squeaky clean.
