Beauty Q&A: Can I Go Swimming With Eyelash Extensions?

How Long Should You Wait to Swim After Getting Eyelash Extensions Wet?

The only time you definitely shouldn’t expose your lash extensions to water is if you just got them applied. “Minimize the chance of wetting your extensions in the first 48 hours,” says Elrod. “After that period, the adhesive used to apply your eyelash extensions is secure enough to allow you to get them wet — meaning you can swim in any type of water.” Just be sure to steer clear of goggles or any other equipment that might put your lashes at risk.
