409. Lashies Awards Launch & Pro Q&A: Tackling Dry Lids and Commission Dilemmas

In this episode of LashCast, we kick off with all the exciting details on the 2025 Lashie Awards—our revamped, fully digital nomination process is now open through August 8th! We break down 19 new categories, from Solo Artist of the Year to Best Editorial Shoot, plus shout-outs for rising stars, influencers, brands, and salon teams. Whether you’re a one-room powerhouse or run a multi-artist studio, we’ll show you how to enter, why it’s worth the $75 entry fee (even if you can’t make it to LashCon!), and how this “shoot, ready, aim” challenge can supercharge your skills, your résumé, and your confidence. Then, it’s time for two hot questions from Facebook’s Lash Queens group: Dry, flaky eyelids? We walk through meibomian gland care—lid scrubs, warm compresses, hypochlorous acid sprays, NewLids tools, and CeraVe (or Aquaphor-style) ointment—to restore healthy oils and banish blepharitis. Stuck on 50% commission with sub-par salon supplies? Learn why stocking your own lash kit is a savvy “cost of doing business” move, plus how to pitch a wholesale deal for better lash trays, adhesives, and tools—without burning bridges with your boss. Tune in to equip your business for awards success and get the insider tips you need to keep your clients (and your lids!) in peak condition.
