The essence of the procedure for eyelash lamination
Laminating eyelashes is also often called keratin, because one of the main ingredients of the composition for this procedure is keratin. As you know, keratin is a protein that serves as the basis of hair and eyelashes, and the thicker the layer of this substance, the healthier and more beautiful they look.
The active keratin component simultaneously envelops the outside and penetrates deep into the cilia, restoring damage caused by the harmful effects of the environment, improper care or poor-quality cosmetics. As a result, the damaged structure of the eyelashes is restored and strengthened, their growth is stimulated. The keratin film formed on the eyelash surface provides shine and maintains a normal level of moisture.
In addition, the means for eyelash lamination includes ingredients such as vitamins and organic components that strengthen the eyelashes, increase their flexibility and prevent damage. Also these substances are able to trigger the growth process of the so-called sleeping follicles of eyelashes, which are in a protracted phase of rest.
