How to Find Which Glue to Use for Fake Eyelashes

Fake eyelashes can be a fabulous addition to your look. Choosing the right eyelash glue is essential to keeping your fake eyelashes on securely and looking great. Different fake eyelashes require different types of glue, so you need to be prepared and know which glue works best for the eyelashes you like to wear.

Things You'll Need

• Fake eyelashes
• Clear eyelash glue
• Dark eyelash glue
• Waterproof eyelash glue

Instructions

1. Determine the type of fake eyelashes that suit you best. You can purchase fake eyelashes in full strips, small sections or individually. Eyelash strips tend to be more obvious but are easier to apply. Sectioned and individual fake eyelashes are harder to apply but look more natural.

2. Decide which color of eyelash glue you want to use. Eyelash glue usually comes in clear or dark options. The clear eyelash glue goes on white but slowly fades to clear and is unnoticeable. The dark eyelash glue dries to a dark color wherever it is used and can be helpful if you're trying to achieve a more dramatic look.

3. Choose waterproof eyelash glue if you want a strong, secure hold. Waterproof formulas come in either clear or dark glues, depending on the look you are going for and generally last longer than other types of eyelash glues.

4. Read the product information on the eyelash glue you choose. Not all glues work on every type of fake eyelashes, so read carefully to make sure you have the right glue for the fake eyelashes you want to use.

Tips & Warnings

• Be careful with the eyelash glue you choose. Apply it carefully and evenly and don't apply it too thick on your fake eyelashes. Too much glue can ruin a good pair of fake eyelashes.
