Long story short, these are an excellent & affordable way to do at-home lash extensions. The attached picture is eight days after I applied them. When I first started doing it, it took a long time: like over an hour to do both eyes. Now I’ve got it down to a science BUT I do use an *additional glue* - KISS Strip Lash Adhesive (clear but black would be better). My outside corners fell off after two days which is rare but I was having a lot of issues with my eyes watering and I just didn’t bother to replace them.Here are my tips after doing these 5 or 6 times:Have LOTS of tweezers, a baby wipe and wipe between uses. I use the one that came with it only to clamp the lashes together when I was done I used two or three basic old tweezers to rotate because they get sticky even wiping them and then you’ll pull off the lash you’re trying to put on.First: apply a very thin layer of the black bond to the base of your lashes just above the water line. DO NOT GET THIS IN YOUR LASHES!! it’s sticky like tar and will ruin everything.Second: Apply a dot of the Kiss lash glue to the band itself, and hold gently in place for a few seconds. Wipe your tweezers and repeat, making sure there are no gaps.Third: When you’re done, and you’re happy with the look, take the seal and tap it gently all over where you put that black bond at the base of your lashes, then coat both sides of the inside of the gold tweezers with that seal and use that to clamp the lashes at the base, pinching them tightly (but carefully). If there are any spots that should be darkened like the glue is visible, just take that black, sticky bond and cover it gently with that, and then seal it. AT THE BASE ONLY. If there are for some reason spots at the ends of the lashes that are lighter and you can’t get it off without yanking your lash off, then just use some mascara to cover it up.GO SLOW when removing, saturate lashes with the remover or almost any oil based product will use and let it sit on their gently massaging do not pull or you will pull out your lashes.
