MASTERING THE ART OF LASH ADHESIVE: TIPS FROM THE PROS

As a leading lash manufacturer, we understand that lash adhesive is the unsung hero of your craft. It's the magical ingredient that transforms individual lashes into stunning, long-lasting sets. But like any powerful tool, it requires proper handling and care. Let's dive into some expert tips to help you get the most out of your lash adhesive and elevate your lash game!

1. QUALITY OVER QUANTITY: THE SMART BUYING APPROACH

We often see lash artists stocking up on adhesive during sales, but this can be counterproductive. While it might seem cost-effective, bulk buying can lead to waste and compromised quality. Instead, we recommend purchasing only what you'll use within a 2-3 month period. This ensures you're always working with fresh, high-quality adhesive. Remember, a single bottle of our premium adhesive can last for about 200-250 sets, so plan accordingly!

2. SHELF LIFE MATTERS: KEEP TRACK OF YOUR DATES

Every bottle of our adhesive comes with a production date clearly marked. This date is crucial - it's the starting point of the adhesive's 6-month unopened shelf life. Once opened, aim to use the adhesive within 4-6 weeks for optimal performance. We suggest labeling your bottle with the opening date to keep track. This simple step can make a world of difference in your lash retention rates.

3. ENVIRONMENT IS EVERYTHING: CONTROL YOUR WORKSPACE

Your lash studio's environment plays a bigger role than you might think. Temperature and humidity can significantly affect adhesive performance. Ideal conditions are 68-75°F (20-24°C) with 40-60% humidity. We've developed our adhesive to perform optimally within these ranges, but it's up to you to maintain them. Consider investing in a hygrometer and a small humidifier or dehumidifier to keep your workspace in the sweet spot.

4. THE ART OF APPLICATION: LESS IS MORE

When it comes to adhesive application, precision is key. Our specially designed adhesive bottles allow for controlled, drop-by-drop dispensing. Remember, a little goes a long way - you only need a small bead of adhesive for each extension. Refresh your adhesive drop every 15-20 minutes during application to ensure consistent performance throughout the treatment.

5. STORAGE SECRETS: KEEP IT COOL AND DRY

Proper storage is crucial for maintaining adhesive quality. Always store your adhesive in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Our bottles are designed to protect the adhesive from light and air exposure, but it's best to keep them in a dedicated storage box or drawer when not in use.

6. SHAKE IT UP: THE IMPORTANCE OF MIXING

Before each use, give your adhesive bottle a good shake for about 30 seconds.You can also use the electric Electric Glue Shake. This ensures all components are well-mixed and ready for optimal performance. It's a small step that can make a big difference in your lash retention.

By following these tips, you'll not only extend the life of your adhesive but also enhance your overall lash application process. Remember, great lashes start with great adhesive - and great adhesive starts with proper care and usage. Here's to your lash success!
