Elan KiwiFix, 10 g, is a fixing balm for lash lamination, "glue without glue", in new packaging: it holds lashes on the silicone rod throughout the whole procedure without shifting or sticking together, doesn't dry out and never forms a dense film, so hairs can be repositioned with a microbrush at any point.
Key point: the balm doesn't form a dense film, so it doesn't block the next products from reaching the hair and keeps the structure elastic during the chemical process.

How long it lasts
Balm usage depends on the client's lash density: coarse or unruly hairs need a thicker layer, fine and sparse ones a thinner layer. Since the balm doesn't dry into a dense film, a technician can work with the same layer longer without reapplying. Track your own usage over the first few procedures, it gives you a benchmark for a 10 g bottle in your practice.
Who it's for
The balm suits a technician who performs lash lamination on different densities and needs flexible, glue-free fixing: the texture allows combing through lashes during layout and adjusting direction with a microbrush until the procedure is done. It's a salon product used within a lamination or lift procedure.
Short application guide
Lashes are cleansed with ÉLAN Detox-Mousse 2.0, with extra degreasing if needed. The balm is applied in a medium-thickness layer to the silicone rod, lashes are laid out with a microbrush and applicator in the desired direction.
Coarse hairs get a thicker layer, without excess. If needed, lashes are repositioned before applying the second product. At the end of the procedure, residual balm is removed with a damp cotton pad.
