You can if you want, but too much mascara-wearing can shorten the longevity of your extensions. Try to find something that says it’s extension-safe and avoid any product that’s oil-based. You should NOT wear waterproof mascara on your NovaLash eyelash extensions.  

6.  How safe are extensions?  

Damage occurs when lashes are not individually isolated- ONE SINGLE EXTENSION ON ONE SINGLE NATURAL LASH (for volume extensions, it is one extension cluster attached to one natural lash). When lashes are not individually isolated or separated, this is called EXPRESS LASHES or otherwise known as a "coat-and-drop" technique. This technique adheres or glues large chunks of natural lashes together. Also, extensions that are too long and/ or too thick can cause stress on the natural lash. Your lashes should not feel uncomfortable or cause you any pain. Extensions should feel weightless. This is why it’s important for the lash artist to customize extensions.  He/she needs to make sure the natural lashes can support the weight of the extensions.

The longevity will depend on your natural lash cycle which is usually about four to six weeks. For most people, getting a fill about halfway through the cycle will give the best results.
