About LAB Factor
Founded in 2016, originally Lash Factor started as an online retailer of lash extension products and has grown in that time into an established e-commerce business within the professional beauty industry.

We pride ourselves on being at the forefront of the industry and on our highly-rated customer service. Today, we remain a small, family-owned team of ten full-time employees.
