Troubleshooting Tips for DIY Lashes

DIY lashes can give you that flawless, professional look from the comfort of your home, but let’s face it—sometimes, things don’t go as planned. From lashes that won’t stick to clusters that just don’t look right, we’ve all been there. Don’t worry—these troubleshooting tips will help you overcome common issues and achieve flawless results every time.

 

1. Lashes Won’t Stick

If your lash clusters aren’t adhering to your natural lashes, the problem might lie in your adhesive or application technique.

Fix:

  • Make sure you’re using a high-quality adhesive like the Everhold Lash Bond (Clear) or Everhold Lash Bond (Dark).

  • Coat the cluster lash generously with bond to ensure a secure, long-lasting hold.

  • Clean your natural lashes with an oil-free cleanser to remove any residue or oils.

 

2. Clusters Look Uneven

Uneven lash clusters can make your look appear less polished and symmetrical.

Fix:

  • Use a lash map to guide your placement. Lash mapping ensures even distribution and symmetry.

  • Adjust the placement of clusters using precision tools like the Cavalli Lash Tweezers.

 

3. Adhesive Residue is Visible

Visible adhesive can ruin the seamless look of your lashes.

Fix:

  • Use the Everhold Lash Sealant to blend the adhesive and create a natural finish.

  • Avoid over-applying adhesive. A little goes a long way.

 

4. Lashes Feel Uncomfortable

If your lashes feel heavy, poking, or just plain uncomfortable, something may be off with the application.

Fix:

  • Ensure that the lash clusters are applied close to the lash line but not touching your skin.

  • Our lighter-weight clusters are designed with a clear band, ensuring they are not thick or irritating to your eyes.

 

5. Lashes Won’t Last

If your lashes fall off within hours, your bond or sealing technique may need adjustment.

Fix:

  • Clean your lashes thoroughly with an oil-free cleanser to remove any residue before cluster application for better adhesion.

  • Make sure you’re sealing the bond properly with the Everhold Lash Sealant.

  • Apply an extra coat of sealant after the clusters are set for added durability.

  • Avoid excessive touching or tugging at the lashes throughout the day.

 

6. Removing Lashes is Difficult

Struggling to remove your lashes without pulling or tugging? That’s a recipe for lash damage.

Fix:

  • Apply a generous amount of the Rose Water Bond Remover to gently dissolve the adhesive and make removal seamless.

  • Our Rose Water Bond Remover is crafted with premium ingredients, ensuring gentle yet effective removal, leaving your natural lashes healthy and intact.
