Episode Synopsis

Are oils really ruining your retention — or have we all been lied to?
In this episode of Lash Science, Carly and Olivia are joined by cosmetic chemist, Michael Becker, to finally get to the bottom of one of the most misunderstood topics in lash care: OIL.
We cover everything from:

How oils actually interact with lash adhesives (traditional and light-cured)
Which oils are actually a problem… and which ones are totally fine
Whether light-cured adhesives hold up better against oil-based products
Common myths about "oil-free" aftercare
Why not all cleansers and balms are created equal

This is the episode every lash artist and educator needs to hear!
