If you have downward lashes, meaning your natural lashes tend to grow straight or point down rather than up, you may have noticed your extensions don’t quite show up the way you’d hoped.
This is a common concern, and it’s exactly why we’ve introduced a new add-on menu called Pre Lash Lift.
In this guide, we’ll explain what Pre Lash Lift involves, how it differs from our existing Lash Up Extensions menu, and how to know if it’s the right choice for you.
What Is Pre Lash Lift?
Pre Lash Lift lifts your natural lashes first, before your extensions go on.
Once your natural lashes are lifted, we apply your extensions on top, so they sit in the same direction as your lift rather than pointing a different way.
The result is that your lashes and extensions blend together instead of separating. Since your natural lashes are no longer blocking your eyes, more light reaches them, which tends to make your eyes look brighter and more open.
How to Book
Choose your usual New Set extension menu, then add Pre Lash Lift from the add-on menu.
This currently costs $65, down from the standard $110.（2026）
Pre Lash Lift vs Lash Up Extensions: What’s the Difference?
Both menus combine a lift with extensions, so it’s easy to mix them up. The difference comes down to how many extensions you get.
| Lash Up Extensions | Pre Lash Lift |
|---|---|
| Focuses mainly on the lift | Focuses on lift and full extensions together |
| Fewer extensions applied (55 Classic Lashes each) | Same extension count as a normal New Set |
| Best if you want a lighter, more natural boost | Best if you want your usual full set, with better lift and definition |
In short, Lash Up Extensions is the better fit if you’d like a simpler, lighter result. Pre Lash Lift is the better fit if you still want your usual full set of extensions, just with the added benefit of a lift underneath.
Who Suits Pre Lash Lift?
This add-on tends to work well if:
- Your natural lashes grow straight or point downward
- You’ve felt like your extensions don’t show up as much as you’d like
- You want your full usual extension count, not a reduced amount
- You have a big event coming up and want your eyes to look as open and bright as possible
Every set of lashes is a little different, so if you’re not sure whether Pre Lash Lift or Lash Up Extensions suits you better, that’s exactly what a consultation is for.
