Lash Lift, Lash Tint or Brow Lamination? A Guide for Your Santa Teresa Stay
Sun, saltwater, surf and humidity are not kind to mascara. That’s why lash and brow treatments are popular before and during a beach trip: they work with your own lashes and brows, so you can look put-together with less makeup. But what is the difference between a lash lift, a lash tint and brow lamination — and which one do you need?
This guide explains each service in plain words, with our prices at Aurora, Plaza Royal, so you can choose before you send a request.

Quick guide: what do you want to change?

Lash lift and lash tint
Lash lift
Lash lifting: 60 minutes · $45 · Lash lifting & tint: 60 minutes · $60
A lash lift curls and lifts your natural lashes from the root, so they look longer and more open without a lash curler. Adding a tint darkens them at the same time — a popular combination if your lashes are light.
Request a lash lift › Request lift & tint ›Lash tint
30 minutes · $40
A tint adds color to your lashes, so they look darker and more defined without mascara. It doesn’t change the curl — choose lift & tint if you want both.
Request a lash tint ›Brow lamination, eyebrow tint and threading
Brow lamination
45 minutes · $45
Brow lamination sets your brow hairs in a brushed-up direction, so the brows look fuller and more even. Good if your brows grow in different directions or you like a natural, fluffy look.
Request brow lamination ›Eyebrow tint
30 minutes · $40
A tint adds color to light or sparse-looking brows, for more definition without brow makeup.
Request an eyebrow tint ›Eyebrow threading
20 minutes · $35
Threading removes unwanted hairs with a twisted cotton thread, to clean and shape the brow line. It’s quick and fits easily into a busy beach day.
Request eyebrow threading ›Planning around the beach
- Book early in your stay, so you enjoy the result for the whole trip.
- Ask about aftercare when we confirm your time — for example, how long to keep your lashes and brows dry before you swim or surf.
- Plan the order. If you want both brows and lashes done, ask our team how to combine them in one visit.
- Sensitive skin or eyes? Tell our team before your appointment.
