False lashes can elevate any makeup look, adding drama and allure to your eyes. To make the most of your visionary lashes and ensure they last through multiple uses, proper care and maintenance are essential. Here are some tips to keep your false lashes in top condition.
1. Remove Makeup Residue
After wearing your false lashes, it's crucial to clean off any residual makeup. I recommend using a clean eyeshadow brush to gently dust off any eyeshadow or sparkle that might have settled on your lashes. Highlighters and blush often contain small particles that can end up on your lashes, dulling their appearance.
2. Loosen the Lash Adhesive
Removing the lash adhesive can be tricky, but using a Q-tip dipped in micellar water makes the process much easier. Gently use the Q-tip in circular motions along the cotton band of the lashes. This technique helps to gather the adhesive into a small dot, making it easy to remove without damaging the lashes.
3. Remove the Adhesive
Once the adhesive is gathered into a small dot, you can easily remove it using tweezers or our Lash Star Beauty lash applicator tool. Be gentle to avoid pulling or tearing the lash band.
4. Store Your Lashes Properly
Proper storage is key to maintaining the shape and quality of your lashes. Place them back in their original case after cleaning to protect them from dust and debris. This also helps them retain their curved shape, making them easier to apply next time.
5. Avoid Using Mascara
While it might be tempting to apply mascara to your false lashes, it's best to avoid doing so. Mascara can clump and damage the delicate fibers of the lashes, shortening their lifespan. If you need extra volume or length, opt for a fresh coat of mascara on your natural lashes before applying your false ones.
6. Handle with Care
False lashes are delicate, so handle them with care. Avoid pulling or tugging on the lashes when removing them from the case or your eyes. Use tweezers or a lash applicator tool to grip the band gently and lift them off.
7. Keep Them Dry
Avoid getting your false lashes wet, as this can weaken the adhesive and distort their shape. If you need to clean them, stick to using a dry brush or a Q-tip with micellar water as described above.
Taking the time to properly care for your visionary lashes will not only extend their life but also ensure they continue to look fabulous with each wear. By following these simple steps, you can keep your false lashes in pristine condition and ready for any occasion. Remember, the key to stunning lashes is gentle handling and consistent maintenance.
