Love at First Lift: The Ultimate Lash Shield Guide
At LashMode, we’re all about delivering lash lifts that your clients fall in love with. That’s why our Love at First Lift collection features three expertly designed lash lifting shields that give you total control and custom results for every eye shape, lash length, and desired look.
Made from ultra-soft, glueless jelly silicone, our shields mould perfectly to the eyelid without discomfort, slipping, or the need for adhesive — making the lash lift process smoother, faster, and more luxurious for both client and artist.
Let’s break down each shield and how to choose the perfect one:
1. C Curl Rod – The Classic Curl
Shape: Gentle, natural curl
Sizes: XS,S,M,L,XL
Best For: Almond-shaped or deep-set eyes
Includes: Glueless jelly design for ultimate comfort
The C Curl Rod is your everyday go-to. Designed to mimic a natural lash curl, this rod lifts lashes in a soft, sweeping motion that flatters nearly every client — especially those who love a more natural, effortless lash look.
Why artists love it:
-
Universally flattering
-
Perfect for medium to long lashes
-
Delivers that “mascara curl” effect
-
Soft jelly material = no poking, slipping, or glue mess
Pro Tip: Go for M when working with medium lashes to achieve the perfect balance of curl and lift.
2. L Curl Rod – The Ultimate Eye Opener
Shape: Flat base with a sharp, vertical lift
Sizes: S, M, L, XL
Best For: Hooded eyes, monolids, straight/downward lashes
Includes: Glueless jelly material for easy application and a secure fit
The L Curl Rod is ideal for lifting lashes straight from the root — perfect for clients who want serious eye-opening results. Especially beneficial for hooded lids, it keeps lashes from curling back into the eyelid and helps them stay visible, lifted, and defined.
Why artists love it:
-
Maximum root lift, minimal curl
-
Helps lashes rise above the eyelid fold
-
Works wonders on short, stubborn, or downward lashes
-
Comfortable, flexible design for all-day wear
Pro Tip: Use M on clients with longer lashes for dramatic visibility and lift.
3. Hybrid Shield – Curl Meets Lift
Shape: Lift at the base + soft curl through the tips
Sizes: 6 sizes (XS–L)
Includes: BONUS lash ribbons to secure lashes onto the shield + glueless jelly comfort
Can’t decide between L and C curls? The Hybrid Shield combines the root lift of an L Curl with the rounded finish of a C Curl — giving you the best of both worlds. Designed for versatility, these shields are perfect for clients who want noticeable curl and lift, with a softer, fluttery finish.
Why artists love it:
-
Great for uneven or asymmetrical lashes
-
Ideal middle-ground for undecided clients
-
Comfortable, moulding jelly fit
-
Comes with FREE lash ribbons for faster and neater lash placement
Pro Tip: Reach for this when you want to give your client a soft glam lash that feels both bold and wearable.
