Liquid bleach may be used for all disinfect- ing purposes in the salon. However, the bleach you are using must describe a disinfection method on the label. If it does not, it is not disinfecting. Reading the Label Bleach that has a scent or states that it is “Splash-less” does not disinfect. If the bleach you are buying and using lists a disinfection method on the label, it is an ap- proved disinfectant. Please read the labels of your products carefully. Know what you are using and that the product is approved by the Board. If your inspector identifies products that are not able to do the job they are required to do, you will receive a health and sanitation violation. Not all bleach disinfects!

    Ophthalmology Management http://www.ophthalmologymanagement.com/printarticle.aspx?articleID... Article Date: 4/1/2016 False lashes, permanent eye makeup, tatoos can cause dry eye. Maybe Keats was referring to natural beauty. BY CYNTHIA MATOSSIAN, MD, FACS; KENDALL DONALDSON, MD, MS; ALICE EPITROPOULOS, MD; AND MARGUERITE MCDONALD, MD or thousands of years, women and men have decorated their eyes with lash embellishments, permanent lid tattoos, and more recently, have instilled contact lenses and undergone lid surgery. But at what cost to the health of the ocular surface? As it turns out, a steep price. Ophthalmologists with female patients — especially those “of a certain age” — need to be aware of the threats these embellishments pose to the ocular surface. Figure 1. Elizabeth Taylor as Cleopatra. What follows is a list of beauty treatments, their composition and what damage they can cause to the ocular surface. Unnatural eyelashes Eyelash extensions. Their popularity is striking. Type ‘eyelash’ into Google and ‘extensions’ pops up immediately. They are available in nail and hair salons, day spas and other establishments offering aesthetic services. Eyelash extensions are applied to each existing lash on the person’s lids to create a fuller, thicker look. A bonding agent is used to affix the synthetic lash to the natural one. The National Consumer Affairs Center of Japan has reported that the number of cases, along with concerning signs and symptoms stemming from this process, are on the rise. They include: allergic blepharitis, keratoconjunctivitis, chemical keratitis and conjunctival erosion.

  • Lashes and Brows Care Instructions
    Lashes and Brows Care Instructions Eyelash Perming Care Instructions Eyelash perming is a great way to achieve the curl you’ve always dreamed of that eyelash curlers and even heated eyelash curl- ers won’t give you the same results. Eye lash perming is much like perming your hair, except in a smaller dosage and application to make it safe for your eyes. A patch test is required 48 hours prior to application to ensure solution sensitivity. Patch test can be applied on arm or back of neck and can be done during consultation. When perming eyelashes, a client who wears contacts should come in wearing glasses or bring a pair to wear after. Contacts cannot be worn during procedure and cannot be put back in until 24 hours after procedure. Client should not get eyelashes wet for 24 hours so that solution can fully develop. If they do get wet, perming process will not reach full effect and can lose most or all of curl. Client can take a shower or a bath but a dry wash- cloth should be put over eyes to avoid water from hitting eyelashes. Perm should last 1-2 months depending on how lash takes to perm. Example: straight downward positioned lashes may need to be repermed sooner that someone who already has a slight curve to their lash due to how the natural lash grows out. Eyelash and Eyebrow Tinting Care Instructions Eyelash and eyebrow tinting is ideal for those who have naturally light eyelashes or eyebrows, who have a hard time keeping mascara on from daily activities, who would like their eyebrows to match their hair color, and for those already have dark eyelashes but would like to add a glossy finish and not have to wear mascara.
