If your lashes are adhering to the applicator, it may be due to excess bond on the applicator. To prevent this, ensure that there's only a minimal amount of bond on the lash band and avoid getting the adhesive on the tweezers. If the issue persists, gently wiping the tweezers with an alcohol pad between applications can help keep them clean and non-sticky. Do not use your remover liquid to remove residue from the applicator as this will interfere with the integrity of the lashes.
