Thank goodness for LVL Lashes. Without it, our mornings would be considerably less streamlined. With mouths to feed, trains to catch and kids to hustle off to school, the grooming process often takes a bit of a backseat right? After all, who really has time to tousle their hair to perfection and apply a full face of makeup everyday? (If you do, please get in touch. We want to be you.) Luckily there’s plenty of time-saving treatments out there, but LVL is on another level. Standing for ‘Length-Volume-Lift’, LVL is a truly transformative lash treatment that will give you the effect of curled, mascara’d lashes AND more wide-awake eyes, without a lick of makeup.

1 You can squeeze LVL into your lunch break
It’s a two-part tinting and lifting process with immediate results. Lisa Asquith, from Manchester’s Didsbury Beauty Clinic told us ‘LVL curls your natural lashes at the root, which makes your lashes appear longer, thicker and more lifted. The lash tint creates a mascara effect which means you don't have to mess about in the morning either getting ready for work. Also, it’s perfect for a holiday.’ All in all, it takes around an hour, including a consultation. ‘The treatment itself takes 45 minutes so could be done on your lunch break!’, she added. You’ll also most likely need to do a patch test 48 hours beforehand to make sure you don’t have a reaction to the dye.

2 It's a total game changer for pale, blonde lashes
If you have very fair lashes, this treatment could change your life. The tint will pick up every millimetre of your lashes and coat them with pigment to give you an effect you've only ever acheived before with liner, mascara and a set of lash curlers. We kid you not. Even if your lashes are dark, imagine waking up every day with curled, thicker-looking lashes? Hello, beautiful.

3 You can say bye bye to mascara
Once you’ve got your brand new boosted lashes, you’ll need to avoid getting them wet for 24 hours, but the results are immediate, so you won’t be wanting (or needing) any mascara from the moment you leave the salon. No more precision application or smudging to worry about, imagine that! Lisa explains they offer all clients a free lash brush to gently brush through the lashes with every night – it keeps them curly for longer. The results usually last around six weeks, but it can be even longer if you take care cleansing your face.

4 It suits all lifestyles
LVL is also perfect for gym bunnies. No one wants to worry about sweating off their mascara during spin class or hot yoga, but once your LVL is done, your lashes will be totally colour-fast for over a month. Or, if you’re travelling a lot, mascara and lash curlers will be two less things to pack. Oh, and if you’re just kinda lazy (no shame there, we are too), this just gave you an extra five minutes in bed every morning. Win win.

5 After one LVL treatment you'll be hooked
‘80% of our clients who have LVL keep coming back for more’, Lisa laughed. And we can see why – the results are long-lasting and noticeable, without being as dramatic as lash extensions, or needing as much upkeep. You won’t have to worry about shedding or using super-gentle eye makeup remover, but you’ll still have lashes that pack a punch. ‘It’s definitely one of our more popular treatments’, Lisa added.
