High-temperature adhesives
In the summer, standard eyelash adhesives can lose their properties due to high temperatures and humidity, which affects the longevity of the application. High-temperature adhesives provide stable bonding and long-lasting results even in extreme conditions. This makes the lash artist's work more predictable, and clients' lashes stay beautiful for longer.
Why do I need to change my adhesive in the summer?
During summer, high temperatures and humidity can significantly affect the properties of lash adhesive. Standard formulas may dry too quickly, leading to weaker bonds, or conversely, they may struggle to cure properly in humid air. As a result, application becomes more challenging, and lash retention may be shorter.
On hot days, choose an adhesive that ensures stability and long-lasting retention even in extreme conditions. This helps prevent issues like changes in adhesive consistency, lash shedding, or the need for more frequent refills. If you notice that your usual products aren’t performing as well in the summer, it’s a sign that it’s time for a change!
Weather-resistant adhesives
High temperatures and humidity can significantly shorten the bonding time of standard adhesives, causing them to dry too fast or, on the contrary, making it harder for them to cure properly. Adhesives designed for hot weather maintain optimal viscosity and durability regardless of the conditions. This ensures a secure application and long-lasting results.
How air conditioning affects adhesive performance in summer
It’s not just natural weather conditions that impact adhesive performance—air conditioning can also be a challenge. Many salons cool their rooms intensively during summer, leading to significant temperature fluctuations and reduced humidity. Drier air can slow down the curing process, making the application take longer. That’s why it’s essential to monitor the humidity level in the salon and adjust the adhesive accordingly. In drier environments, a faster-drying adhesive is often necessary to maintain optimal efficiency.
How to choose the right adhesive?
When selecting an adhesive for hot weather, consider its bonding time, viscosity, and recommended working conditions. Some adhesives are better suited for extremely hot climates, while others work best in moderate conditions. It’s also important to match the product to your personal work preferences and lash application technique.
