Hello friends of make up power, how are you? I hope you had a wonderful week. Some time ago I had tried doing an eyelash perm to have them more arched and make my eyes stand out more, but it had not been a very good experience. Although the result was beautiful, during the process I did not feel very comfortable. Since they cover your eyes with plastic wrap for 40 minutes and that was very exasperating for me, because I couldn't even move my eyes with my eyelids closed. In addition, the girl who performed it left me alone in the room, without music or anything that would allow me to measure the time that was passing, I felt how anxiety was growing in my body, it was horrible! For that reason I did not dare to arch my eyelashes again through aesthetic treatment. But several months ago my niece Morena told me that she took the preparation course to work doing hair-by-hair eyelash extensions and she told me that she wanted to work on my eyelashes.
Hola amigos de make up power, que tal están? espero que hayan tenido una maravillosa semana. Hace ya un tiempo habia probado realizar una permanente de pestañas para tenerlas mas arqueadas y resalten mas mis ojos, pero no habia sido una muy buen experiencia. Si bien el resultado fue hermoso, durante el proceso no me sentí muy comoda. Ya que te tapan los ojos con un papel film durante 40 minutos y eso fue muy desesperante para mi, porque no podia siquiera mover los ojos con los parpados cerrados. Ademas la chica que me lo realizó me dejó sola en la habitacion, sin musica ni nada que me permita medir el tiempo que estaba transcurriendo, sentí como la ansiedad iba creciendo en mi cuerpo, fue horrible! por ese motivo no me animé a volver a arquear mis pestañas mediante el tratamiento estetico. Pero hace varios meses mi sobrina Morena me comentó que realizó el curso de preparacion para trabajar haciendo extension de pestañas pelo por pelo y me comentó que queria trabajar en mis pestañas.
I have long eyelashes, but they are completely straight down, for this reason they never come out and that makes my eye with a shape that I don't like. I like to enhance my look with makeup, which is why it is ideal to have nice arched eyelashes. After much chatting with her, I decided to put aside my fears and leave my eyelashes in her hands!
Yo tengo las pestañas largas, pero completamente lacias hacia abajo, por tal motivo nunca se me venm y eso hace mi ojo con una forma que no me gusta. Me gusta realzar mi mirada con maquillaje por lo cual es ideal tener unas lindas pestañas arqueadas. Despues de mucho charlar con ella, decidí dejar de lado mis miedos y dejar mis pestañas en sus manos!
Morena's mom, I mean my cousin, has a beauty salon near where I live. So I went to see the place, there Morena is in charge of eyelash and eyebrow treatments, her sister Magali does sculpted nails and her grandmother, my aunt, performs massages! It is a nice family business that is growing while they are training. When I arrived, Morena told me that she had to humidify the environment at 45º so that the eyelash glue would fulfill its function well, so she was using an electric kettle for it, the more clients she has, the more money she has to get a humidifier so that her work is even more professional, meanwhile the kettle fulfilled its function perfectly.
La mamá de Morena, osea mi prima, tiene una estetica cerca de donde yo vivo. Asi que fui a conocer el lugar, allí Morena se encarga de los tratamientos de pestañas y cejas, su hermana Magali realiza uñas esculpidas y su abuela, mi tia, realiza masajes! es un lindo negocio familiar que está creciendo mientras ellas se capacitan. Cuando llegué Morena me comentó que debia humedecer el ambiente a 45º para que el pegamento de pestañas cumpla bien su funcion, asi que estaba utilizando una pava electrica para ello, mientras mas clientes tenga irá juntando dinero para conseguirse un humificador para que su trabajo sea aun mas profesional, mientras tanto la pava cumplió perfectamente su funcion.
Unlike the work I had done on my eyelashes before, now I didn't have to cover my eyelids with anything, I just used some pads in the area of my dark circles so that my eyelashes were above them. There he marked different areas with a marker and the number of eyelashes that he would use in each of them, in addition to the length of the extensions. She told me that she would use long lashes from the middle out to achieve a more almond-shaped look and bigger eyes. She placed the glue in a container and little by little, tab by tab, she placed the extensions. In total we spent about an hour with each eye, we were chatting at all times so time flew by! and she explained to me everything she was doing to leave me alone in case I felt somewhat anxious. She also made it clear to me that if she needed it we could stop and open our eyes. I felt very taken care of by her ♥
A diferencia del trabajo que me habia realizado en las pestañas antes, ahora no debia cubrir mis parpados con nada, solo utilizó unos pads en la zona de mis ojeras para que mis pestañas queden por encima de ellas. Allí marcó con un plumón diferentes zonas y la cantidad de pestañas que utilizaria en cada una de ellas, ademas del largo de las extensiones. Ella me comentó que utilizaria pestañas largas del medio hacia afuera para lograr una mirada mas almendrada y unos ojos mas grandes. Colocó el pegamento en un recipiente y poco a poco, pestaña a pestaña, fue colocando las extensiones. En total estuvimos aproximadamente una hora con cada ojo, estuvimos charlando en todo momento por lo cual el tiempo se pasó volando! y ella me fue explicando todo lo que estaba haciendo para dejarme tranquila por si me sentia algo ansiosa. Ademas me aclaró que si lo necesitaba podiamos frenar y abrir los ojos. Me sentí muy cuidada por ella ♥
When I finished she took a lot of photos and videos for her personal and aesthetic instagram, that was difficult because I'm a lousy actress and I can't help laughing while filming me hahaha I was also very happy! because look how beautiful my eyelashes are! I really couldn't believe it, I had my doubts because I wanted them to look as natural as possible and I wasn't going to know the result until I finished and there would be no going back, but I was completely satisfied with the work ♥ for the next 24 hours I couldn't wet my eyelashes or make up my eyes, I also had to comb them with an eyelash brush to prevent them from sticking together. It's been a week with the lashes and they are still just as beautiful, they will last approximately 3 weeks and then I have to do a service, which I will definitely attend because these lashes are a one-way street!
Cuando terminé ella tomó muchas fotos y videos para su instagram personal y el de la estetica, eso fue dificil porque yo soy pesima actriz y no me puedo aguantar la risa mientras me filmaba jajaja ademas estaba muy feliz! porque miren que hermosas que quedaron mis pestañas! realmente no lo podia creer, tenia mis dudas porque queria que se vean lo mas natural posible y no iba a saber el resultado hasta que terminase y ya no habria vuelta atras, pero quedé completamente conforme con el trabajo ♥ durante las siguientes 24 hs no pude mojarme las pestañas ni maquillarme los ojos, ademas debia peinarlas con un cepillo para pestañas para evitar que estas se peguen entre si. Ya llevó una semana con las pestañas y siguen igual de hermosas, aproximadamente duraran 3 semanas y luego debo realizar un service, al cual definitivamente asistiré porque éstas pestañas son un camino de ida!
