The 5-Minute Lash and Brow Care Routine for Busy Women
A consistent lash and brow care routine boasts many benefits: mainly, stronger, more beautiful lashes and brows. And a routine doesn’t have to take a surplus of time. Try these simple beauty tips for working women. This step-by-step routine will help protect your lashes and brows from everyday damage while improving the way they look.
Step 1: Cleanse (1 Minute)
Why it’s important: You probably wouldn’t skip washing your face in the morning, right? Well, your lashes and brows are just as important to cleanse as your skin. Removing leftover makeup, dirt, and oil from your lashes and brows will prime them for the rest of your routine – and for better results.
How to do it: Saturate a cotton pad with a gentle, oil-free makeup remover or micellar water. Press the pad on your closed eyelid for a few seconds to help loosen makeup. Gently wipe the eye area clean, removing any dirt and makeup residue on your lashes, brows, and eyelids.
Pro tip: Check your cleanser’s ingredients. Oil-based makeup removers and cleansers can leave behind a film which may create a barrier between your lashes and brows and your serums. Choose an oil-free product, such as our Micellar Water Lash Wash. This micellar water based formula removes makeup, dirt, and oil while leaving lashes, brows, and skin soothed and hydrated. (Plus, if you’re not sure how to maintain lash extensions – good news. This hydrating lash product is safe to use as your go-to lash extensions aftercare to keep them fresh and clean!)
Step 2: Condition (1 Minute + Drying Time)
Why it’s important: Lash and brow serums, also called conditioners, are the heroes of your routine. They help make your lashes and brows stronger, softer, and more beautiful. These formulas enhance your natural lash and brow appearance for a head-turning look – with or without makeup products. Plus, they protect your lashes and brows from everyday damage.
How to do it: After prepping your lashes and brows with an oil-free cleanser, allow them to dry completely. Apply one thin line of RevitaLash® Advanced directly to clean, dry upper eyelashes only, above the lash line. (You only need to dip the applicator brush into the bottle one time for both eyes.) Next, apply your brow serum. apply several short strokes of RevitaBrow® Advanced to clean, dry eyebrow hair, using its specially designed eyebrow applicator. Allow both serums to dry before moving on to the next step. Drying can take a few minutes, so use this time to tackle another part of your morning routine, like choosing an outfit or accessories, or answering a few emails.
Pro tip: The best lash and brow serums are physician developed, third-party safety tested, and reviewed by independent ophthalmologists and board-certified dermatologists. Our RevitaLash® Advanced and RevitaBrow® Advanced formulas check all these boxes.
