Eyelash Extensions
What are your Eyelash Extensions made of?
They are made from Korean PBT Fibers (Polybutylene Terephthalate) The best material that lashes can be made from. Our Eyelash Extensions are not made from animal hair and are cruelty free and vegan friendly.
Use with our range of American, London and Russian Volume Lashes. If you are using our ultimate fanning lashes, they are applied like classics and will not wrap but sit like a classic lash does.
What are the Ultimate Fanning Lashes?
The lashes are bonded slighty at the base which makes it easier to create a fan in under a second. Once you learn the correct pick up technique, you can create fans quickly, just make sure that you don't pick up too many lashes at once to prevent boxy bases! Each fan applies like a classic lash and does not wrap around the natural lash like a normal volume fan.

What is the shelf life?
The shelf life is 8-12 weeks once open.
How should it be stored?
You should store your adhesive in a cool, dry place (not in a fridge due to moisture levels) An air tight container is suitable with silica gel inside. Shelf life is 8 -12 weeks once open.
How often should the adhesive be changed throughout the treatment?
The Ultimate Adhesive should be changed every 20-30 minutes for optimum results.
How should I use the Ultimate Adhesive?
We recommend that you isolate the natural lash first, dip the extension 3mm into the adhesive and then attach to the natural lash and hold for 2-3 seconds. Do not drop the extension onto the natural lash, this will cause the lashes to fall off in a few days instead of a few weeks.
The adhesive should NEVER touch the skin around the eye area in any circumstance, please apply the eyelash extension at least 0.2-1mm away from the base of the natural lash. Do not stroke, shimmy or wipe onto the natural eyelash, please place in position and hold for 2-3 seconds. We like to apply from the side or underneath for better retention.
Will the humidity of my room affect the adhesive?
Yes. The humidity of your room will affect how this adhesive sets onto your clients lashes and could also determine how long your clients lashes last. Cyanoacrylate polymerises when it comes in to contact with water so if the humidity of the room is high, the adhesive will dry fast and if its too low, the adhesive will dry too slowly.
Our adhesive works perfectly between 50-60% humidity level. Please use a hygrometer to measure the humidity level of your working area. If not correct, retention will be poor and the lashes will fall off quickly. Your room temperature should not be more than 22C.
