- Place your lashes in the lid of cleanser bottle and fill the lid with
enough cleanser to cover the lashes. - Soak for 15 minutes
- Remove your lashes from the cleanser, gently pull away any remaining lash glue.
- Leave to dry, brushing your lashes through with a clean mascara wand to bring back the 3D layered fluffiness.

You can get your false lashes wet! However, while they're partially resistant to water, it's important to treat them with care to maintain their style. Simply avoid soaking them or wearing them in the shower or while swimming. Here's why:
- Your false lashes are designed to withstand some water exposure, but they're not entirely waterproof. By being mindful of not overexposing them to water, you'll help maintain their durability and keep them looking fluffy for longer.
- Excessive water can weaken the lash glue, potentially causing your lashes to come loose. By minimising water exposure, you're ensuring a secure hold and prolonging the life of your lashes.
- Keeping your false lashes away from excessive water also helps preserve their shape and alignment. This means easier reapplication and a consistently flawless look every time you wear them.
Remember, a little care goes a long way in maintaining the longevity of your false lashes. So feel free to enjoy some splashes, but keep those lashes dry for their best performance!

For best results, try applying mascara to your natural lashes for a seamless blend with your false lashes.
When it comes applying mascara directly to the false lashes, you should this as it can shorten their lifespan and cause them to clump together. If you prefer a more dramatic look, consider choosing false lashes that already have a thicker or darker appearance.

With false lashes, it’s all about how you apply and remove them that ensures you do not damage your natural lashes. If you mistakenly apply them directly onto your natural lashes instead of above the lash line, there’s a risk of accidently pulling your lashes out when removing your false lashes. Be gentle and mindful with the application process, and your natural lashes will thank you!
