What it is
LVL stands for length, volume and lift. This lash lift in Bristol raises your natural lashes from the root and tints them, so they look longer and fuller without adding anything.
Skin & Beauty Box uses the genuine Nouveau Lashes LVL system. The lift and tint are both included in the £59.50 treatment, which takes 60 minutes.
Is LVL the same as a lash lift?
LVL is Nouveau Lashes' lash-lift system that lifts and tints your own lashes rather than attaching extensions, with the tint included in the £59.50 treatment.
Why people choose it over extensions
Extensions add individual lashes. LVL works with your own, so there is no adhesive bond and no infill appointment between treatments.
If you want added lashes rather than lifted ones, compare it with eyelash extensions instead.
- One 60-minute appointment gives six to eight weeks of lift.
- The tint means mascara is optional for everyday definition.
- Nothing is attached to your natural lashes.
- There is no daily extension maintenance.
Is it bad for your lashes?
Done on healthy lashes and repeated at the right time, an LVL should not damage them. Over-processing or lifting too often can cause damage, which is why the six to eight week cycle matters. Your lashes need to grow through their natural cycle before you repeat the treatment.
The treatment is not suitable for every eye or lash condition. Tell your therapist about any eye disorder before you book so they can check whether LVL is appropriate.
Patch test and suitability
Patch test and suitability: Pop into any salon at least 24 hours before treatment for your patch test. No appointment is needed and it takes a couple of minutes. Tell your therapist about any previous reaction to tint or products used around the eyes. If the skin around your eyes is irritated or broken on the day, contact the salon before attending so the therapist can confirm whether to proceed.
Three Bristol salons
LVL lash lifts are available at all three Skin & Beauty Box salons: Clifton Down, Westbury on Trym and Westbury Park (Coldharbour Road). The salon has NVQ Level 3 qualified beauty therapists who can check suitability before the treatment.
Pair an LVL with brow lamination, or choose brow & lash tinting if you want colour without a lift.
