How to Make False Lashes Last Longer

To make false lashes last longer, you need to remove them gently, clean the band carefully and store them properly after each wear. Most lash damage happens when the band is pulled, soaked or left loose in a makeup bag.

Beauty Explained lashes are designed to be reusable with proper care. Most 3-pair lash packs can be worn up to 15 times per pair where stated, while the 5 Pack Strip Lash Bundle can be reused up to 5 times per pair.

Quick Answer

Make false lashes last longer by removing them from the outer corner, peeling dried glue from the band, avoiding soaking, letting them dry fully and storing them back in the tray.

False Lash Care: Quick Rules

  • Do: remove gently from the outer corner.
  • Do: peel glue away from the band carefully.
  • Do: store lashes back in the tray.
  • Do not: soak lashes or pull the fibres.

Step 1: Remove Lashes Gently

Start at the outer corner and peel the lash away slowly. Do not rip the lash off quickly, because this can stretch or damage the band.

Step 2: Remove Dried Glue From the Band

After wearing your lashes, gently peel away dried glue from the lash band. Avoid pulling the lash fibres while cleaning the band.

Step 3: Avoid Soaking the Lashes

Soaking can affect the shape and fibres. If the band needs cleaning, clean it gently and allow the lashes to dry fully before storing.

Step 4: Store Them Back in the Tray

The tray helps the lashes keep their curve and shape. Leaving lashes loose in a bag or drawer can bend the band and make them harder to reuse.
