7 Reasons Your Strip Lashes Keep Lifting at the Corner

If your strip lashes lift at the corner and your fingers end up covered in glue, the problem is where the band sits.

1. They go under your lashes, not on your lid

Makeup's done. You glue a strip lash, wait for it to get tacky, press it on, and the outer corner lifts.

A strip lash is one long band sitting on top of your lid, so any spot that doesn't grip shows. Small clusters press under your natural lashes instead, so the band hides.

2. No glue tube, no glue on your fingers

Separate lash glue means waiting for it to get tacky, getting it on your fingertips and your lid, and starting over when you get the timing wrong.

Salon extensions skip the glue at home, but they mean a long appointment, bonding glue and fills every few weeks.

3. Pre-glued clusters in mixed lengths

Each cluster has adhesive already on the band, so there's no separate glue step.

The kit has multiple lengths: shorter toward the inner corner and longer at the outer edge for a natural or wispy look.

4. Press, clamp, done

Curl and clean your natural lashes so they're free of oil and mascara.

Pick up a cluster with the applicator, press it under your lash line, and clamp gently to set it with your natural lashes.

5. The honest part: practice and patch test

Being straight with you: the first try takes practice. Start with three clusters per eye and build up once you've got the feel.

Wear time varies with skin oil and activity, so remove them at least weekly. Patch-test on your inner arm 24 hours before first use, keep adhesive out of your eyes, and stop if anything feels irritated.

6. Off when you want them off

When you're done, an oil-based remover loosens the adhesive so the clusters lift away.

Never pull them off dry. That's what's hard on natural lashes.
