How to Clean and Store False Lashes

Don't toss your false lashes after you have removed them. You can keep the glue-laden, clumpy false eyelashes that you wore throughout your day.

Hear us out, lashes don't come cheap! If you are a frequent buyer, a single set of lashes may be quite expensive.

You can still use synthetic lashes with proper care. They can last up to 25 applications.

Drugstore Cleaning & Storage Guide

Step 1: Clean the glue band with a small, sterilized tweezer. While smaller prongs are able to lift glue more precisely than larger ones, they won't be able to remove false lashes.

Second step: Use an oil-free make-up remover on a cotton swab. This will remove any dirt, glue, or mascara.

Tip: Before applying false lashes, curl your natural and false eyelashes. This will prevent them from separating. To reduce clumpiness, seal mascara

Step 2 Let your eyelashes soak for 5-10 minutes

Step 4: Use a microfiber towel to dry your eyelashes overnight. Step 4: In the morning, brush your lashes with a brush.

High-End Storage and Cleaning Guide:

Step 1: Clean the glue band with a small, sterilized tweezer. While smaller prongs are able to lift glue more precisely than larger ones, they won't be able to remove false lashes.

Step 2: Apply oil-free mascara remover to mascara-covered lashes with a cotton swab. Do not immerse in water or makeup remover.

Mascara should not be used on high-end lashes. Mascara oils and waxes can cause lash fall by causing a break in the lash band.

Step 3: Keep your eyelashes in their original case. With a pair of tweezers, you can lift the lash band and loosen the corners.
