Review (3/5): READ THE REVIEWS FOR CLEAR INSTRUCTIONS!!!
First, I suggest to do one eye at a time even though it takes longer. You’ll be doing yourself a favor.
1. I would cut the lift pad to your eye size, it makes working with it much easier. Visualize how and where you want your lashes to curl and place it accordingly. I wanted mine to flare out a bit so I put mine a little further away from my inner corner so that my lashes on the outer corner had space on the pad.
2. I used the Tarte Micellar Water to cleanse my eyelashes. The glue it comes with is awful and weak. You can actually use any eyelash glue to glue down your lashes. I used the House of Lashes glue. I used this glue to apply the pads onto my eyelid. You can use the glue however way you need to to keep your lashes down. I used a spoolie to push the lashes against the pad and held it there for a few seconds then I used the Y tool to separate them. BE GENTLE AND SWIFT. If you’re too rough you might rip your eyelashes off and the longer the glue sits the harder it will be to separate the lashes.
3. When I was satisfied with the eyelash separation I applied the perm lotion. ONLY PUT THE PERM LOTION ON THE BASE OF THE EYELASHES. From the very bottom to the middle where you want it to curl. If you apply it to the whole eyelash, your adhesive will loosen and your lashes will start coming off the pad. I used a Q-tip to apply this. Also I place a small piece of cling wrap on top of my eyelashes after applying the perm lotion to further secure my lashes from coming off.
4. After 20 minutes, I delicately removed the cling wrap, I used another Q-tip to apply the fixation lotion. This is thicker than the perm and should be applied to the whole lash. But still be very careful and gently apply it. I placed another small piece of cling wrap on top of my lashes to secure my eyelashes in place again.
5. After 20 minutes, I gently removed the cling wrap and used another Q-tip to apply the nutrition oil to my lashes. Then I used another Q-tip to apply the cleanser that comes with the box onto my lashes. Gently free your lashes from the pad. I used the Tarte Micellar Water to remove the rest of the glue. I dipped my spoolie into the Micellar water and combed my lashes through them to get any more remaining glue off.
The lashes come out perfect! I hope this helps!
