Application Guide

You can do this. In under two minutes.

Most first-timers get it on the second try. By day three, it's muscle memory.

Before you start

Do your eye makeup first — liner and mascara on your own lashes, if you wear them. The lashes go on last.

Five steps

1. Measure and trim. Hold the lash against your eye. If it's longer than your lash line, trim from the outer edge — never the inner. The inner end is shaped to sit against your tear duct.
2. Glue the band. A thin line along the band, not the fibers. Wait 20 seconds until it turns tacky. Applying it wet is the most common mistake — it slides.
3. Place from the center. Look down into a mirror. Set the middle of the band as close to your lash line as you can, then let the ends follow.
4. Press the corners. Inner first, then outer. Gentle pressure for a few seconds each. Corners are where lifting starts.
5. Done. Go.

Taking them off

Soften the glue along the band with micellar water or a remover pad, then lift gently from the outer corner. Never pull dry — that's what damages your own lashes.

Making them last

Each pair is rated for 15+ wears with proper care.

• Peel the dried glue off the band after each wear.
• Store them in the case, not loose in a makeup bag.
• Don't sleep in them — it bends the band and shortens their life.
• Keep mascara off the false lashes. Apply it to your own lashes first, before the strip goes on.
