Many lash extension enthusiasts wonder, can goggles in the shower safeguard those freshly applied or natural lashes? The quick answer, yes, let’s dive deeper into what wearing goggles in the bathroom can accomplish.
💧 What the Experts Say
• Modern adhesives withstand water, but they’re sensitive to hot steam and harsh shower jets that can weaken the bond shortly after application. Many lash studios recommend waiting 8–24 hours post-treatment and avoiding strong sprays at the lash line.
•A recent article advises waiting a day after getting lash extensions, then using goggles as a supplemental protective tool.
👀 What Our Clients Say About guardaroos Lash Goggles
Amelia M.
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
"I got these eyelash glasses for our daughter as she is always complaining that when she has her eyelashes done she's not allowed to shower or cook steamy food for a day or two after as it can affect her lashes. It's not cheap having the lashes done so she definitely doesn't want to waste money!Funnily enough, this set also comes with a free swimming cap which my daughter was thrilled with as her current cap is too tight over her hair whereas this one has ample room to fit in all her long hair and she was as pleased with the cap as she was the shower goggles! The painted on little lashes are a nice comical touch. Great price too!"
✅ Smart Strategies for Shower-Time Lash Protection
1. Wait for adhesive cure time. Keep water off your lashes for at least 8–24 hours post-application.
2. Use lukewarm, low-pressure showers and avoid aiming jets directly at your lashes.
3. Dab, don’t rub. When rinsing, gently pat the area near your eyes without rubbing or tugging.
4. Keep them clean. Clean lashes daily with lash-safe cleanser to avoid buildup. Goggles shouldn’t block this daily ritual.
5. Use goggles for added protection. If you opt for goggles, choose a breathable, anti‑fog style (like lash‑specific models) and avoid prolonged wear, like guardaroos buy on AMAZON.
