Lash Lifting & Tinting
If you love the idea of beautifully enhanced lashes without extensions, lash lifting and tinting could be the perfect treatment for you. This natural-looking service is designed to lift, curl and darken your own lashes, creating the appearance of longer, fuller lashes with minimal maintenance. It’s ideal for those who want an effortless, polished look that works just as well for everyday wear as it does for special occasions.
At The Lab Retreat, every lash lift and tint is carried out with precision and care. We take the time to understand your desired result, your lash length and growth pattern, and how bold or natural you’d like the finish to be. The result is a bespoke treatment that enhances your natural beauty rather than overpowering it.
One of the biggest benefits of lash lifting and tinting is convenience. There’s no need for mascara, lash curlers or daily upkeep, and results typically last between six to eight weeks. It’s a perfect option for busy lifestyles, holidays, or anyone who prefers a low-maintenance beauty routine.
Book your consultation or appointment online or call 07966 217059 and we’ll be happy to help you.
Please note: For your safety, all clients will need a quick patch test at least 48 hours prior to their treatment, as the service involves lifting solutions and tint. This ensures your treatment is both comfortable and worry-free.
What Is A Lash Lift?
A lash lift is a semi-permanent treatment that enhances your natural lashes by lifting and curling them from the root. Unlike lash extensions, no additional lashes are applied – instead, your own lashes are carefully shaped using a gentle lifting solution and a tailored silicone shield that determines the level of curl.
The result is lashes that appear longer, more defined and beautifully lifted, opening up the eyes and giving a fresh, wide-awake look. Because the lift starts at the root, it creates a much more natural effect than strip lashes or daily curling, with results that last for weeks.
A lash lift is highly customisable. Whether you prefer a subtle, natural curl or a more noticeable lift, the treatment can be adjusted to suit your eye shape, lash length and personal style. It’s suitable for most lash types, including straight or downward-growing lashes that struggle to hold a curl.
The treatment is relaxing, low maintenance and perfect for anyone who wants to enhance their lashes without committing to extensions. Once complete, you can swim, shower and wear makeup as usual, making it a fuss-free way to keep your lashes looking their best.
Lash Tinting - What To Expect
Lash tinting is the perfect complement to a lash lift, adding depth and definition by darkening your natural lashes from root to tip. During the treatment, a specialist lash tint is carefully applied to your lashes, creating the look of mascara without smudging, flaking or daily application.
The process is quick, comfortable and completely tailored to you. We’ll select a tint shade that enhances your natural colouring and suits your desired level of intensity, whether that’s soft and subtle or darker and more defined. The result is lashes that look thicker, darker and more noticeable, even without makeup.
When combined with a lash lift, tinting enhances the overall effect, making the lashes appear longer and more dramatic while still looking natural. It’s particularly beneficial for clients with fair lashes or those who want a polished, low-effort look.
Results typically last up to six weeks, gradually fading as your lashes naturally shed. Lash tinting is ideal for holidays, gym-goers, or anyone who wants to streamline their beauty routine while still looking put together every day.

FAQs About Lash Lifts & Tints
How Long Does A Lash Lift & Tint Last?
«A lash lift and tint typically lasts 6–8 weeks, depending on your natural lash growth cycle and aftercare. As your lashes naturally shed and regrow, the lifted and tinted effect will gradually soften rather than suddenly disappear.
Do I Need A Patch Test Before A Lash Lift?
«Yes. A patch test is required at least 48 hours before your appointment for all lash lift and tint treatments. This is essential as the service uses lifting solutions and tint to ensure there are no allergic reactions and your treatment is completely safe.
Will A Lash Lift Harm My Natural Lashes?
«When carried out by a trained professional at The Lab Retreat, you are in safe hands. A lash lift is safe and gentle on your natural lashes. We use high-quality products and tailor the treatment to your lash type to maintain lash health and strength.
Can I Wear Mascara After A Lash Lift?
«You’ll need to avoid getting your lashes wet and applying makeup for 24 hours after your treatment. After this time, you can wear mascara if you wish, although many clients find they no longer need it.
Is A Lash Lift Suitable For Straight Lashes?
«Yes. Lash lifts work particularly well on straight or downward-growing lashes, as the lift starts at the root. Even shorter lashes can benefit, creating the appearance of longer, more lifted lashes with a natural finish. For really short lashes, you might prefer to try our Classic Lash Extensions to add natural-looking length to your eye lashes.
How Should I Look After My Lashes After A Lift?
«To get the best results, avoid steam, saunas, and excessive heat for the first 24 hours. After that, simply keep your lashes clean, avoid oil-heavy products around the eye area, and gently brush them if needed to maintain their shape.
