What's Inside a Lash Lift Kit

A lash lift kit brings together everything needed to lift natural lashes in one place: the three-step lifting system, the shields that shape the curl, and the tools that keep the application clean. Knowing what each part does makes it far easier to choose the right kit and to get an even lift that lasts up to eight weeks. Here is what's inside a lash lift kit and how the pieces work together.

The Three-Step Lift System

At the core of every lash lift kit is a three-step system, applied at the base of the lashes in sequence. The No1 lifting cream is the first step: a white cream that breaks the bonds inside each lash so the hair can be reshaped into its new lifted form. The No2 neutralising lotion follows, applied to exactly the same spot to lock the lashes into their new curved shape, and it comes in a sodium bromate or a hydrogen peroxide formula. The No3 moisturising serum finishes the treatment, removing any leftover product or tint residue and conditioning the lashes so they feel soft rather than stripped.

The same dual formula is designed for both lash lifting and brow lamination, so the core system in the kit works across both treatments. For sensitive clients, a Cysteamine lifting cream can replace the standard first step: a gentler, TGA-free formula enriched with a copper-peptide complex that helps restore the lash fibre from within.

Shields: Shaping the Curl

The shield is what decides the shape of the curl, so a kit's shields matter as much as its creams. The silicone lash lift shields create an L-shaped curl in small, medium and large curvatures: a small shield gives a dramatic lift on short lashes, while a large one suits the longest lashes with a softer curve. Some kits add Ultimate Curler shields, which produce a C or D curl depending on placement, across eight sizes designed for tricky cases such as hooded or deep-set eyes. The wider the range of shields a kit holds, the more eye shapes and lash lengths it can handle.

The Tools That Keep the Application Clean

A clean, even lift relies on a few precise tools, and a good lash lift kit includes them rather than leaving you to source them separately. A bonding serum holds each lash flat against the shield with a clear, non-toxic adhesive, with an extra-strong version for thick or stubborn hairs. The lash lifting Y-comb tool and a stainless-steel separating tool isolate the lashes one by one for a uniform finish, while under-eye gel pads keep the lower lashes out of the way and protect the skin beneath the eye from product or tint.

Prep and Aftercare Extras

The result starts before the first cream and continues after the last. A lash & brow cleanser removes makeup, oil and bacteria for a clean base, which helps the products grip evenly and the lift hold for longer. For aftercare, cold-pressed castor oil rebuilds the lash structure and adds shine, while a nourishing serum with keratin, biotin and castor oil conditions the lashes and extends how long the lift lasts. A growth serum, formulated without prostaglandin analogues, can be added for clients who want extra length and density without the fatty atrophy sometimes linked to those ingredients. Not every kit includes these extras, so it is worth checking what each tier covers.

Choosing the Right Kit

Lash lift kits are offered in tiers, from a starter kit through to standard and deluxe options. A starter kit holds enough of the core system and shields to learn on and to treat clients, while larger kits carry more product and a broader shield range for higher volumes and more varied eye shapes. Match the contents to how often you will be working. For a fuller picture of how the products are used at the couch, see how a lash lift works, step by step.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does a lash lift kit contain?
At minimum, the three-step lift system (lifting cream, neutralising lotion and moisturising serum), silicone shields to shape the curl, a bonding serum to hold the lashes, and separating tools. Larger kits add more shields, more product and prep or aftercare extras.
Do lash lift kits include the shields?
Yes. Shields are central to the treatment because they set the curl, so they are part of the kit. Silicone shields give an L-shaped curl in small, medium and large, with Ultimate Curler shields available for C and D curls across eight sizes.
What is the bonding serum for?
The bonding serum holds each lash flat against the shield with a clear, non-toxic adhesive while the lifting products work. An extra-strong version is available for thick or stubborn lashes that will not stay in place on their own.
Can one kit be used for both lashes and brows?
The lift system uses a dual formula designed for both lash lifting and brow lamination, so the core creams work across both treatments. Shields and some tools differ between the two, so check what your kit includes.
Is there an option for sensitive clients?
Yes. A Cysteamine lifting cream offers a gentler, TGA-free first step, enriched with a copper-peptide complex that helps restore the lash fibre. A consultation and patch test beforehand are standard practice.
How long does a lift from the kit last?
A lash lift lasts up to eight weeks when aftercare is followed. After that, new lashes grow in straight as part of the natural cycle and the lift softens gradually.
