Anyone have any tips for gluing false eyelashes? I can do the rest of the eye well, but not the inner corner, no matter what keeps popping up for some reason, mostly because my eyes get watery quickly. It’s so boring to help her! 🙁

I know some women that use hair adhesive instead of lash glue for stronger bond. But be careful with this.
A few things MUA’s used to do to stick lashes on my eyes (which are round and so corners were difficult to stick):
– After applying the glue on the lash strip, wait a few seconds, and then touch the two ends of the strip together. This softens the strip a bit and also you can spread the glue to the ends to the strip on both sides.
– While waiting for the glue to get sticky, roll the strip around to loosen it up. Just imagine a ball on the inside of the strip and you’re rounding the strip around it.
– After the glue has become sticky, apply to your lashline, and really focus on the corners and getting them down asap.
Some lashes tend to have quite thick strips, and those are no good for sticking down if your eyes are not “standard.” The thicker the strip, the less flexibility you have in placing it.
I use a little bit of lash glue on a toothpick and dab the strip (the areas that won’t stick). Then, I wait for a few seconds before pressing them down. This trick usually helps for me!
Edit: corrected punctuation
Cut the inner section and just glue it on by itself not with the rest of the lash strip
I apply a little bit of glue on my lash line as well as the lashes so it’s double glue and that usually helps! I don’t always do the whole lash line but just the spots it lifts like the inner corners.
