Ugh, does anyone else have that annoying issue where your falsies start lifting at the inner corners after like two hours? ?
I feel like I’ve tried everything — waiting for the glue to get tacky, using more product on the ends, etc. — but by lunchtime, I’m always peeling them off because they look messy. I was about to give up on strip lashes entirely and just pay for expensive extensions.
But I recently switched to a different glue I found online, and oh my god, the difference is insane. I wore my lashes to a wedding last weekend (lots of dancing and sweat lol) and they didn't budge once. It’s such a relief not having to carry a tube of glue in my purse anymore!
Has anyone else tried this brand, or do you have any other hacks for making them stay put?
I’m happy to share the link if you guys want to check it out!
I totally feel your pain! That inner corner lifting is literally the worst—it makes you look like you’re falling apart by noon lol. I used to have the same struggle no matter how long I waited for the glue to get "tacky."
I actually switched to Lash glue a few months ago after seeing some lash techs rave about it, and it’s been a total game-changer. It’s way stronger than the basic stuff you find at the drugstore. I can actually rub my eyes (carefully!) and they don't move.
A couple of other hacks that saved me:
The "Trim" Rule: Always trim the lash band just a tiny bit more than you think you need. If it’s even a millimeter too long toward your inner eye, it’ll poke and pop up immediately.
Double Glueing: Put a dot of glue on your actual skin right at the inner corner, plus the glue on the lash itself. It’s like double-sided tape for your face.
Definitely try the Stacy Lash stuff though, it's honestly the only reason I haven't switched to extensions yet!
I actually stopped using the drugstore stuff and switched to Stacy Lash https://stacylash.com/collections/glue(the one in the little white/gold bottle) and it’s been a total game changer for me too. Honestly, their extra strong glue is the only thing that keeps my lashes locked down through a full workday or a night out.
If you're still having issues even with good glue, a little hack I do is cutting the lash band into three small segments. It makes the band way less stiff, so it doesn't try to "spring" back up at the corners. Also, try applying the glue to your eyelid like eyeliner right at the inner corner instead of just on the lash strip.
