The lift starts here.

Korean Lash Lift Step 1 Softening Lotion is a cysteamine HCl-based solution designed to gently soften the natural lash structure, allowing it to be reshaped into a lifted position.

Unlike harsher TGA-based formulas, this cysteamine formula works gradually to help minimize the risk of over-processing while still delivering the softening power needed for dramatic Korean Lash Lift results.

This is the chemistry behind the transformation. Step 1 helps break down the disulfide bonds that hold the lashes in their natural shape, allowing the lashes to be repositioned and lifted before Step 2 reforms the bonds into place.

The formula is enriched with conditioning ingredients, including Biotinoyl Tripeptide-1, Castor Oil, and Apple Fruit Cell Extract to help support lash condition during the chemical process.

Each 1 ml sachet keeps the product fresh for every service while reducing contamination and waste.

Protocol Step 5 — Softening Phase

Apply Step 1 evenly to the base of the lashes using the Bold Lift Brush or Long Micro Brush.

Ensure each lash is fully coated from root toward tip for even softening.

Process according to lash thickness, porosity, and resistance. Typical processing time is 6–12 minutes.

Remove thoroughly before moving to Step 2. Step 1 should be removed dry before neutralizing.

Professional Tip

Fine or delicate lash tips process faster than the base of the lash. When applying Step 1 toward the tips, do not leave product on the tips for more than 1 minute.

Always watch the lash, not just the timer.

PROCESSING TIME REFERENCE

Do not rely solely on the clock.
Actual processing time always depends on the individual client's hair structure and porosity. Use the times below as a guide only. You should begin neutralizing when you visually see the lash has become lighter in color and more flexible—this is your signal, not the timer.

Note: If you are using Lift Balm Adhesive, processing times may vary depending on the amount of balm applied.

LASH TYPE

Step 1: 6–8 min

How to Check Softness

Every 3–4 minutes, gently lift the Eye Processing Wrap and test a few lashes. They should feel soft and pliable with no resistance when you move them. If not yet fully softened, re-seal the wrap and continue processing.
