At The Brow Fixx, every product we use is chosen with one goal in mind: to deliver the most beautiful results while protecting and nourishing your natural lashes.
Lash lifts have always been one of our most-loved services in Santa Monica, Brentwood (Los Angeles), and Austin, Texas — and for good reason. They instantly open up the eyes, give lashes a gorgeous curl, and cut down your morning routine. But the results and health of your lashes depend on one thing you might not think about: the formula we use during the lift.
That’s why we decided to make a change. For years, we used a keratin-based lash lift solution, but after careful research and testing, we transitioned to a silk protein–based lash lift formula.
This isn’t about saying keratin lifts are “bad” — they can give great results. But our updated formula offers something more: a gentler, more nourishing, and longer-term lash health–focused approach.
The Shift Toward Modern Premium Formulas
Our current lash lift formula isn’t “Korean” in origin, but it follows the style of modern premium Asian lash and brow formulations — especially those seen in high-end Korean and Japanese salons.
This style of formula is designed not just to reshape the hair, but to protect, strengthen, and condition throughout the process. Many older solutions focused purely on the chemical action of lifting, with little regard for the long-term effects.
Our approach? Lift while you nourish. Every step of the process is infused with proteins, vitamins, and botanical extracts to keep lashes soft, shiny, and healthy.
Why We Made the Switch from Keratin
Keratin is a protein naturally found in hair, skin, and nails, and it’s been a go-to ingredient for years in lash and brow services. But we found that many clients wanted:
- A gentler approach that minimized lash dryness over time
- A more flexible curl instead of a stiff or overly “set” look
- Stronger conditioning for clients who get regular lifts
Our silk protein lash lift checks every one of those boxes.
Inside Our Silk Protein Lash Lift Kit Formula
Here’s a breakdown of what makes our formula special — and why our clients in Santa Monica, Brentwood, and Austin love it.
1. Gentle but Effective Lifting Agents
- Ethanolamine Thioglycolate – Reshapes the lash curl without the harshness of older ammonium thioglycolate formulas.
- Urea – Softens the lash structure so the lifting solution penetrates evenly, preventing over-processing.
- Hydrolyzed Silk Protein – Replaces keratin coating with a lightweight, flexible protein that adds shine and natural movement.
2. Vitamin & Protein Fortification
- Silk Protein (Hydrolyzed Silk) – Binds to the lash for smoothness, strength, and luster.
- D-Biotin (Vitamin B7) – Supports lash resilience and reduces breakage.
- Niacinamide (Vitamin B3) – Improves lash texture and promotes healthy growth conditions.
3. Botanical Extract Complex
Our Step 3 aftercare is where the “spa treatment” happens for your lashes:
- Aloe Vera – Deep hydration for both the lash and surrounding skin.
- Marshmallow Root Extract – Softens and improves flexibility.
- Arnica & Rosemary – Soothe and support circulation at the lash line.
- Chamomile – Calms and reduces irritation potential.
- Apricot Extract – Nourishes with vitamins and essential fatty acids.
4. Modern, Multi-Step Protection
Our silk protein lash lift isn’t just lift and set — it’s lift, set, and replenish:
- Lift – Gentle, ammonia-free curl reshaping.
- Set – Hydrogen peroxide–based setting lotion locks in your curl.
- Restore – A concentrated infusion of silk proteins, vitamins, and botanicals for softness, flexibility, and shine.
The Client Benefits You’ll Notice Immediately
Since introducing our silk protein lash lift formula, here’s what our clients have experienced:
- Soft, flexible lashes – No crunchy or overly rigid feel.
- Better separation – Each lash is lifted and defined without clumping.
- A natural, glossy finish – Thanks to silk protein’s shine-enhancing effect.
- Reduced dryness – Botanical aftercare hydrates lashes from the very first appointment.
- Long-lasting curl – Many see results for 6–8 weeks.
How It Compares to a Keratin Lash Lift
While keratin lifts can still produce great results, the difference with our silk protein formula is how your lashes feel after the service.
With our formula, the goal isn’t just a “wow” moment when you leave the salon — it’s ensuring your lashes stay healthy enough to keep that wow factor appointment after appointment. The added conditioning agents and gentle lifting process mean you can safely maintain your lash lifts long-term.
Why This Matters for Regular Lash Lift Clients
If you’re someone who loves the look of a lash lift and gets it every 6–8 weeks, the formula choice is more important than you might think.
Repeated exposure to harsh lifting agents can cause dryness, brittleness, and breakage. That’s why we made the decision to use a formula that builds lash health over time rather than gradually wearing it down.
Lash Lift and Tint for Maximum Impact
For an even bolder look, many of our clients pair their lift with a tint. A lash lift and tint in Santa Monica, Brentwood, or Austin gives you:
- Dark, defined lashes without mascara
- A curl that stays put through workouts, swimming, and humidity
- A low-maintenance beauty routine
