Did you know that the lash industry is unregulated? There is no International organisation that policies our lash products (a product we put on the eyes) So how do we really know what they put in our cosmetic products. With most being mass produced in the Far East for as little as a few dollars, why has no one ever asked the safety/quality question? Because they don't need to and the simple fact is that many want cheap, strong products and don't really care about their own long term health...

In this Episode I will discuss the topic of whether or not we should offer infills on other lash artists work.

It seems that every lash artist is now offering trainings. This has sadly led to an oversaturated industry of trainers (many poor) making it a mindfield to know who's training you can trust. In this podcast I will help you find the right trainer for you.
