What it is
LVL stands for length, volume and lift. Rather than adding anything, the treatment lifts your natural lashes at the root and tints them, so they open up the eye in a way that reads as longer and thicker.
The comparison people find useful: extensions add lashes, LVL makes the most of the ones you have. It is the lower-maintenance option by a distance.
Why people choose it over extensions
It comes down to upkeep:
No infills, and nothing to fall off at an awkward moment
Six to eight weeks from a single appointment
No mascara needed in the morning
Nothing bonded to your natural lashes
Patch test and suitability
A patch test is required 48 hours before your appointment. It takes a couple of minutes and you do not need to book, just pop into any salon.
If you have ever had an eye disorder of any kind, mention it when you book so your therapist can check suitability before you come in.
