Step-by-Step Tutorial: How to Use DUO Lash Glue Remover

Before you begin, gather your supplies: the Ardell DUO Gentle Lash Glue Remover, a cotton swab or pad, and a clean towel. Start by washing your hands thoroughly to avoid transferring dirt or oils to your eye area. Then, gently remove any eye makeup from the lash line area, being careful not to pull on the lashes.

Next, dip a cotton swab into the remover and apply a thin layer along the lash band, focusing on the areas where the adhesive is most visible. Allow the remover to sit for about 30 seconds to a minute. This gives the formula time to break down the glue. You'll notice the lash band starting to loosen.

Once the glue has softened, gently peel the lash from the outer corner inward. If you feel any resistance, apply a bit more remover and wait a few more seconds. Avoid pulling or tugging. After the lash is removed, use a clean cotton pad with a small amount of remover to wipe away any residual glue from your eyelids and natural lashes. Finish by rinsing your eyes with cool water and patting dry.

• Always test the remover on a small patch of skin first if you have sensitive skin.
• Never use the remover on broken or irritated skin.
• Store the remover in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.

Tips for Removing Stubborn Lash Glue

Some lash glues are stronger than others, and you might find that the glue doesn't dissolve as quickly. If your lashes are particularly stubborn, try soaking a cotton pad with the remover and pressing it over your closed eye for a minute. This allows the remover to work more effectively on the entire lash line.

Another pro tip is to use the remover in combination with a gentle steam. The steam helps to open up the adhesive bonds, making removal easier. Just be cautious not to use hot water directly on your eyes. Alternatively, you can apply a warm compress before using the remover to soften the glue.

For those who use long-wear or waterproof lash glues, you might need to repeat the application of the remover a couple of times. Patience is key – never force the lashes off, as this can damage them or your natural lashes.

• Use a gentle pressing motion rather than rubbing.
• If you wear contact lenses, remove them before using the remover.
• Always follow up with a nourishing lash serum or conditioner.

Caring for Your Lashes After Removal

After removing your false lashes, it's important to clean them properly if you plan to reuse them. Gently peel off any remaining glue from the lash band using your fingers or tweezers. Then, soak the lashes in a small dish of warm water with a drop of gentle cleanser for a few minutes. Rinse and let them air dry on a clean towel. Once dry, store them in their original case to maintain their shape.

For your natural lashes, consider applying a nourishing lash serum or castor oil to keep them healthy and strong. Our Press On Naked Soft Volume, 30-Count lashes are a great option if you want a lightweight, natural look that's easy to apply and remove. They come with a gentle adhesive that's less likely to cause damage, making them perfect for everyday wear.

• Avoid using oil-based products on your natural lashes if you plan to apply new falsies soon.
• Replace your false lashes every 5-7 wears to maintain hygiene.
• Store your remover away from heat sources.
