Eyelash Shedding in Autumn: Causes, Remedies, and Prevention

Eyelash Shedding in Autumn: Causes, Remedies, and Prevention

Eyelash shedding is a common phenomenon that can be influenced by seasonal changes, hormonal fluctuations, or improper beauty habits. Understanding the causes and how to prevent it is key to keeping your lashes healthy and strong.

What Is Eyelash Shedding Called?

When eyelash loss becomes more noticeable in autumn, it’s often referred to as Autumn Lash Shed. During this period, the natural growth cycle of lashes (anagen, catagen, and telogen) can accelerate due to seasonal and hormonal changes. This is a completely normal process, and lashes typically regrow within 6–8 weeks.

What Causes Eyelash Shedding?

Seasonal Changes
High summer temperatures help lashes stay longer in the telogen (resting) phase. With the arrival of colder, drier weather, lashes can become fragile and more prone to shedding. Moving between heated indoor environments and cold outdoor air can weaken lashes and trigger natural shedding. This is part of the body’s way of preparing for seasonal changes, similar to how animals shed their fur, though less pronounced in humans.

Hormonal Imbalances
Like hair, eyelash follicles respond to hormonal changes, which can accelerate the shedding cycle.

Stress and Poor Nutrition
A lack of essential nutrients, such as vitamins A, C, E, or minerals like iron, can make lash shedding more pronounced.

Improper Care
Excessive exposure to harsh chemicals or poor hygiene can weaken follicles and cause lashes to fall faster. Using low-quality mascara, not removing makeup properly, or frequently applying false lashes can all negatively affect lash health.

What to Do When Lashes Shed

To minimize lash loss, follow these simple tips:

  • Use a lash serum: Serums enriched with vitamins and essential oils (jojoba, castor, argan) help strengthen follicles and promote growth. Daily application can make lashes stronger and more resilient.
  • Clean lashes regularly: Gently cleanse your lashes every day to remove makeup residue and impurities. Use a gentle cleanser like CLEANSING FOAM and a soft lash brush to keep follicles healthy.
  • Avoid harsh products: Opt for high-quality cosmetics and limit the use of waterproof mascara or false lashes that can dry out or damage natural lashes.

How to Support Eyelash Growth

Proper lash care goes hand in hand with a healthy lifestyle:

  • Balanced diet: Eating foods rich in vitamins and minerals helps maintain strong follicles. Biotin, in particular, is excellent for stimulating lash growth.
  • Lash growth serum: Specific serums can nourish and fortify lashes, reducing shedding and promoting stronger regrowth.
  • Regular exercise: Improved blood circulation stimulates follicles and supports lash growth.

Do Lashes Grow Back?

Fortunately, lashes naturally regrow. The growth cycle varies by individual, but lost lashes usually regenerate within 6–8 weeks. Using nourishing products and maintaining proper care can accelerate this process and ensure healthy, strong lashes.

How to Prevent Eyelash Shedding

To prevent excessive lash loss, focus on daily care:

  • Keep lashes clean: Regular cleansing prevents dirt and bacteria from weakening lashes.
  • Avoid rubbing your eyes: Rubbing can damage follicles and accelerate shedding.
  • Limit heat exposure: Excessively hot eyelash curlers or blow dryers can weaken lashes.

Eyelash shedding is a natural process, often intensified by seasonal changes, climate, and improper care. With the right precautions — including good hygiene, a balanced diet, and nourishing serums — you can prevent excessive loss and support faster regrowth, keeping your lashes healthy and strong all year round.

Cysteamine: The Gentle Revolution in Lash and Brow Lifting

Cysteamine: The Gentle Revolution in Lash and Brow Lifting

The professional beauty industry is constantly evolving, and as a lashmaker, lamimaker, or certified esthetician, staying updated on the latest innovations is essential to offer cutting-edge treatments.Today we’re talking about an ingredient that is transforming the way we approach lifting: cysteamine, the beating heart of My Lamination’s new Cysteamine Lift. What is Cysteamine? Cysteamine (or cysteamine hydrochloride) is an amino-acid derivative naturally present in the human body.In lash and brow lifting, it acts as the key active ingredient that breaks and rebuilds the disulfide bonds within the keratin structure of the hair, creating the lifting and curling effect we want to achieve. Unlike traditional TGA-based systems (thioglycolic acid), cysteamine represents an alternative that works in synergy with the hair’s natural chemistry.Because its molecular structure mirrors compounds already found in our body, it is significantly more compatible with lashes, brows, and the delicate periocular area. This makes it particularly suitable for clients with sensitive eyes, for those seeking a gentler treatment, and especially for brow lifting, where the product inevitably comes into contact with the skin. What is TGA (Thioglycolic Acid)? Before diving into the differences, it’s important to understand what TGA is.Thioglycolic acid (often used as ammonium thioglycolate) has been the star ingredient in lash lifting solutions for years. It works by rapidly breaking the disulfide bonds in the hair shaft, allowing the lashes to be reshaped and lifted. Differences Between TGA and Cysteamine The main differences between these two systems go far beyond the active ingredient itself: Mode of Action Both break disulfide bonds, but cysteamine generally operates at more moderate pH ranges, with a gentler sensorial experience compared to traditional thioglycolates. Application Area A crucial difference is that cysteamine solutions can be applied along the entire lash length.TGA-based products, however, must be applied only up to a maximum of 80% of the lash length, avoiding the tips. Sensorial Experience Although cysteamine has a characteristic sulfur scent, it is generally less bothersome during the treatment.Most clients report little to no discomfort. Post-Treatment Results TGA systems may leave the lashes feeling drier, requiring more attentive aftercare.Cysteamine, thanks to the possibility of incorporating nourishing ingredients, leaves lashes soft, hydrated, and shiny. Pros and Cons Advantages of Cysteamine Gentler formula, ideal for sensitive clients Can be applied along the entire hair length Lower risk of dryness and dehydration Perfect for brow lifting where skin contact is unavoidable Leaves lashes and brows soft, elastic, and naturally defined Points to Consider Generally longer processing times compared to TGA(My Lamination’s Cysteamine Lift takes only 1 minute longer, with the same efficacy) Characteristic sulfur scent, though more tolerable Still requires professional skill to avoid overprocessing Advantages of TGA Fast processing times Very effective on thick lashes Disadvantages of TGA Higher risk of damage if applied by non-professionals Can dry the lashes Must be kept away from the tips Requires experience and precision Choosing between cysteamine and thioglycolate is not about “better or worse”—it’s about selecting the right tool for the right client.Having both options available allows you to personalize each treatment based on your initial diagnosis. Lash Lifting With Cysteamine The lifting process with Cysteamine Lift follows the classic steps of the treatment, with some noticeable improvements: Consultation and Evaluation Begin with a thorough analysis of the client’s lashes, desired outcome, and any sensitivities.This is the perfect moment to explain the specific benefits of a cysteamine-based formula. Patch Test Always request a patch test performed 24–48 hours before the treatment by the client’s doctor or dermatologist.The delicate periocular skin can react quickly, so this step is essential. Application of Cysteamine Lift Unlike TGA-based products, you can apply the solution along the full lash length, safely.My Lamination recommends avoiding direct contact with the lash line; applying product to the tips does not increase curl. Processing Times Monitor the timing carefully depending on lash texture.Overprocessing is still possible if the product is left on too long. Final Result The treatment takes around 45–60 minutes and provides a natural lift, beautifully curled, separated lashes that appear longer to the eye.Results last up to 8 weeks, depending on the lash cycle and aftercare. Safety and Treatment Duration Is It Safer? Many professionals wonder whether cysteamine is safer than TGA.The most accurate answer is: cysteamine is generally more tolerable for many lash types and works at more moderate pH levels.However, both molecules are reducing agents and, if used incorrectly, can still damage the hair or cause irritation. True safety depends on: Product quality Application protocol Professional expertise Cysteamine offers a wider margin for error, making it ideal for beginners. How Long Do Results Last? Both systems can deliver comparable duration (up to 8 weeks), when applied correctly.Longevity depends on: Natural lash cycle Post-treatment care (serums, no rubbing, avoiding oils) Initial lash health Product quality Application technique Professional Precautions Even when working with cysteamine, always maintain high safety standards: For professional use only Avoid direct eye contact; rinse immediately if contact occurs Assess client suitability Ensure proper training and understanding of the product Why Add This Treatment to Your Service Menu Introducing Korean Lifting with Cysteamine Lift is not just following a trend—it meets the real needs of a rapidly evolving market.

Korean Lifting: Everything You Need to Know

Korean Lifting: Everything You Need to Know

Where This New Technique Comes From Asian lashes have unique characteristics that influence the lash lifting treatment. They are generally straighter, thicker (80–120 µm), and point downward, with a lower natural curl and lift compared to other lash types. They are also often paired with a monolid eye structure, meaning there is no visible crease on the eyelid.These features make Asian lashes more challenging to curl and require a specific approach to achieve optimal results. Their greater resistance also leads to longer processing times compared to other lash types.To address this need, an alternative glue-free lash lifting technique was developed in Korea: the Asian lifting. What is Asian Lifting? Asian lifting is a method that eliminates the step of gluing the lashes onto the silicone pad, aiming to reduce treatment time.This technique relies on a cysteamine-based formula, which ,similar to thioglycolic acid, breaks disulfide bonds, making the lashes ready to be reshaped. How Does It Work? After cleansing the lashes and applying eye patches, the correct silicone pad size is chosen (for both Traditional and Asian techniques). When using a cysteamine-based solution, it is applied along the entire length of the lashes without gluing them. The lashes are simply placed onto the pad and left to process. After the longer processing time of Phase 1 (cysteamine acts more slowly than thioglycolic acid), the lashes are cleaned. Then Phase 2 is applied with the lashes still resting on the pad to set the curl. The treatment ends with a nourishing step and the optional application of balms or glosses, with or without color (according to the lamimaker’s preference). Traditional vs. Asian Lifting FEATURE TRADITIONAL LIFTING ASIAN LIFTING Use of glue Yes, lashes are fixed onto the silicone pad No, lashes are simply placed Formula Thioglycolic acid or cysteamine Cysteamine only Processing times Shorter Longer Eye safety Lower risk of irritation Higher risk because lashes are not fixed, allowing the product to slip into the eye Result definition Curl and direction are precise and controlled by the professional Curl and direction may be irregular and inconsistent Disadvantages of Asian Lifting Even though removing the gluing step saves both time and money, Asian lifting comes with several downsides: Longer processing time for Phase 1: cysteamine acts more slowly. More product waste: cysteamine solutions must be applied along the entire lash length, while thioglycolic acid is applied only up to 80%. More work for the lamimaker: without glue, lashes lift off the pad repeatedly, requiring constant realignment, even after applying the solutions, taking time away from preparing the next steps. Less curl definition: traditional fixing ensures a precise and even curvature. Not suitable for every lamimaker: it requires significant experience and meticulous attention, making traditional lash lifting a safer and easier choice for most professionals. Conclusion Asian lifting represents an innovative alternative method, but it is suitable only for clients with fine lashes. At My Lamination, we recommend traditional lash lifting as the most reliable and safe option for achieving precise, high-quality results. Remember: every client is unique, and choosing the right method is essential to enhance the natural beauty of their lashes.

Cysteine: Properties, Uses, and Precautions

Cysteine: Properties, Uses, and Precautions

Cysteine is a non-essential amino acid widely used in cosmetics for its remarkable ability to strengthen and protect hair and nails. It can be derived from animal hair or synthesized from plant-based sources through specific processes. What is Cysteine and What is It Used For? Cysteine is an amino acid with a polar side chain, essential for protein synthesis. It plays a key role in cell renewal, maintaining tissue elasticity, and reinforcing protein fibers such as keratin. Its unique structure allows cysteine to form disulfide bonds, which give hair strength, elasticity, and resilience. Benefits of Cysteine Strengthening: Cysteine is a precursor to keratin, enhancing the strength and elasticity of hair. Through disulfide bond formation, it protects fibers from breakage and damage, acting as a natural “glue” that keeps hair strands robust. Antioxidant: As a component of glutathione, one of the most powerful antioxidants, cysteine fights free radicals, reducing oxidative stress and protecting against environmental damage. Protective: Forms a protective barrier on hair and skin, helping retain natural hydration and shielding against harmful microorganisms, weather, pollution, and chemical treatments. Regenerating: Especially beneficial for sensitive or irritated skin, cysteine supports conditions like acne and dermatitis, promoting a more even and luminous appearance. Elasticity and Resilience: Cysteine helps retain moisture in hair fibers, improving density and leaving hair soft, silky, and radiant. Cysteine vs. Cysteamine: What’s the Difference? Origin and Structure Cysteine is an amino acid, while cysteamine is a simplified derivative. Primary Function Cysteine focuses on strengthening and protecting protein structures like hair, skin, and nails. Cysteamine is used to break disulfide bonds in hair or reduce skin hyperpigmentation. Applications Cysteine is used in products to reinforce hair during lash and brow lamination. Cysteamine is used in lamination products to open the hair cuticle. In summary: Cysteine supports hair structure and strength, while cysteamine is designed to “open” the hair fibers. Where Cysteine is Found Cysteine is commonly included in cosmetic products such as: Anti-aging and soothing creams Anti-acne lotions Pre-shampoo masks Lash and brow serums and conditioners Hand and nail creams After-sun creamsLash and brow lamination products (like LAMI POWDER by My Lamination®) Cysteine in Lamination Cysteine is valuable in lamination because it can modify the viscosity of cosmetic products, making treatments more precise and customizable. It also improves lash adherence to silicone pads, ensuring optimal application. Important: Cysteine does not alter the My Lamination® lamination procedure or timing. Maintain a product-to-powder ratio of 50/50 (1:1) maximum. It can be used to adjust the density of Phase 1 or Phase 2, but never mix the two phases, as each has its own function: Phase 1: Opens the hair cuticle Phase 2: Neutralizes Phase 1 During lamination, cysteine helps maintain the strength and health of lashes and brows, improving elasticity and protecting fibers from mechanical and chemical damage, ensuring long-lasting, flawless results. Precautions Cysteine is generally well-tolerated, but a patch test is recommended to check for adverse reactions. Avoid use if allergic or intolerant to its components. In case of redness or irritation, discontinue use immediately and consult a physician. Conclusion Cysteine is a versatile and valuable cosmetic ingredient, offering regenerative, protective, and strengthening properties. Ideal for enhancing the appearance and resilience of hair, skin, and nails, it is a modern, sustainable choice for anyone seeking advanced, eco-conscious beauty solutions.
