Product Highlight: Ultimate Bond
You know when something just feels too good to be true? Imagine a finishing product that seals your adhesive instantly—insert ULTIMATE BOND. It’s new, it works, and it’s not too good to be true. This week’s product highlight is the ultimate bond but I’m not only sharing why I love this product but how I use it too.
Like I said, ultimate bond instantly seals the adhesive which means 1. faster cure time 2. less fumes (little-none!) and 3. better retention. There are so many benefits to this product, but one of the biggest wins is for our sensitive clients because of the minimal fumes there is less irritation. Our sensitive clients will love it but let’s be real, all of our clients will love it! Better retention is a win. win.
Ultimate bond can be used on both our classic and volume clients, can be used with any cyanoacrylate based adhesives, and has a much longer shelf life than adhesive bottles (8 months opened and 12 months unopened.)
I love everything the ultimate bond does but I really love how easy it is to use. This is the final step so the application begins after you’ve placed your last eyelash extension. First, wait a full 90 seconds after you’ve placed your last lash. Second, using a micro-swab or lint free applicator add a couple drops of ultimate bond and wipe/dab the base of the extension only. Focus the product where the extension is bonded to the natural eyelash and avoid swiping the whole eyelash or over saturating the lashes. When applying to volume lashes we want to be aware of our fans and to not allow the product to close any fans. A tip from me is to give the lashes a good brushing before applying ultimate bond so you don’t have to brush them with the product on.
