Episode 28 - Lash Product Safety, who is responsible?

In this podcast, I talk about the alarming reality behind trusting big lash brands to provide safe lash products. Many of these brands aren't product experts; they simply trust their manufacturers, often sourcing from the Far East where low-grade ingredients and cheap labour are prevalent. With little to no safety regulations in these regions, the issue of harmful lash liquids and glues flies under the radar. What's more concerning is how some lash companies prioritise profit over passion. They buy products for a mere $1 and sell them for $40-$50, without truly understanding the ingredients or their potential risks these products pose to human health. Unless personally affected or deeply passionate about product safety, why would they care? This is why it's crucial to ensure that the brands you support are trustworthy and openly educated and educate their customers about product safety ad the quality of the products they retail.

Are you confused about the difference between an intolerance and an allergic reaction to lash extensions? Look no further!

I'll equip you with a list of questions to ask your lash suppliers to ensure that the liquids and adhesives you purchase are safe for you and your clients.

Join me as we uncover the truth behind the unregulated manufacturing of lash products and how suppliers often turn a blind eye to product safety in pursuit of higher profits. I'll reveal the harsh reality that customers unknowingly contribute to brands selling harmful products, highlighting the importance of educating yourself as a lash artist.

Prepare to uncover the stark reality behind UK compliance in the lash industry. Despite the UK's reputation for stringent regulations on product safety, there exists a significant loophole that allows cheap, low-grade lash products to flood the market and masquerade as UK compliant. Join me as we delve into the intricacies of this loophole and how it enables big well know lash companies to sidestep the requirement for high-grade, safe products. Instead, they turn to sourcing from the Far East, where cheap products and lax regulations prevail. We'll unravel the tactics employed by these companies to exploit the regulatory gap, misleading consumers into believing that their products meet UK standards when, in reality, they pose potential risks to both lash artists and clients.

Join me in this thought-provoking Podcast as we dive deep into the critical question of product safety in the lash industry. Who should shoulder the responsibility for ensuring that the lash products we use are safe for both lash artists and clients? I'll explore the two sides of the coin: Should it be the lash suppliers, who source and distribute these products to lash artists? Or should the responsibility lie with the lash artists themselves, who ultimately apply these products to their clients' lashes? Together, we'll examine the notion of ignorance and whether it serves as a valid excuse for not knowing the ingredients and potential risks associated with the lash products we use. Is it enough to assume that if a product is available for purchase, it must be safe? Furthermore, we'll confront the reality of potential legal consequences. In the event that a client suffers harm from low-grade lash products, who will be held accountable? What legal ramifications could lash artists face if their clients decide to take legal action? Don't miss this crucial discussion that delves into the heart of product safety and accountability in the lash industry.
