Elleeplex Profusion vs. Elleebana One Shot: Which One is Right for You?
Elleeplex Profusion vs. Elleebana One Shot: Which One is Right for You?

When it comes to lash lifting systems, Elleebana is a name trusted and loved by artists around the world. For 30 years, our One Shot Lash Lift System has been celebrated for its speed, effectiveness, and consistent results. But as the lash and brow industry continues to evolve, so do we.

Enter Elleeplex Profusion—our most advanced, gentle, and multi-functional lifting system yet.

So, what’s the difference between these two systems? Is one better than the other? Not quite. Each offers unique advantages depending on your clients’ needs, lash types, and your own artistic style. Let’s break it down so you can confidently decide which system belongs in your hands—or better yet, both.


About Elleebana One Shot

Fast, effective, and iconic—the One Shot Lash Lift System has long been the go-to for beauty professionals who want show-stopping results in under 20 minutes.

This system features a thioglycolate-based formula that quickly and effectively breaks down the disulfide bonds in the hair, allowing lashes to be lifted and reshaped with precision.

Why Artists Love One Shot:

  • 🔥 Fastest processing times in the lash lift industry
  • 💪 Ideal for strong, resistant lashes
  • Long-lasting lifts—up to 8–12 weeks
  • 🧴 Pairs perfectly with Elleeplex ReGEN for added nourishment
  • 🧼 Single-use sachets for hygiene and zero waste

Whether you’re running a high-volume salon or working with clients who want a quick transformation, One Shot delivers exceptional results—fast.


About Elleeplex Profusion

Meet the next evolution in lash and brow services: Elleeplex Profusion. This dual-use system is a game-changer for artists who want versatility and gentle formulation all in one.

Powered by Cysteamine Hydrochloride (CHC), Elleeplex Profusion offers a softer and more forgiving lift process. It’s designed to preserve the hair’s structural integrity, minimising the risk of overprocessing—making it the perfect solution for clients with delicate, thin, or damaged lashes.

Why Artists Love Profusion:

  • 🌱 Vegan-friendly formulation
  • 💗 Super gentle on the hair
  • 🔁 Soft, healthy regrowth phase
  • 🧘 Reduces risk of overprocessing
  • 🎯 Perfect for thin, fragile, or over-processed lashes
  • 🧴 2-in-1 system—can be used for both Lash Lifts and Brow Laminations

If you’re working with clients who want that 2 in 1 lash and brow combo, or who have more sensitive lash conditions, Elleeplex Profusion is your girl.


Let’s Talk Processing Times

The main difference between the two systems lies in their perming agents and processing times:

  • One Shot (Thioglycolate): Faster, stronger, and more rapid bond breakdown. Ideal for thick or stubborn lashes.
  • Elleeplex Profusion (CHC): Slower, gentler, and designed to maintain lash health, even with extended processing times.

While One Shot typically processes around 6/5 minutes, Profusion allows flexibility for custom timings like 13–15/9, depending on lash condition. Don’t forget—processing times are a guide, not a rule. Always assess your client’s lashes beforehand to determine what’s best.

Which System Should You Choose?

This isn’t a “one or the other” situation—it’s all about having the right tool for the right client.

  • Use One Shot for those speedy appointments, or strong lash types.
  • Use Profusion when your client needs gentle care, is vegan-conscious, or when you’re doing a brow lamination + lash lift combo.

We actually recommend having both in your artist kit. Why? Because no two clients are alike—and your success depends on your ability to offer tailored, high-quality results every time.


The Bottom Line

Whether you’re a lash veteran or just expanding your service menu, both Elleebana One Shot and Elleeplex Profusion bring their own magic to the table.

At Elleebana USA, we believe in giving artists the power of choice—and the education to use it wisely.
