How To Clean and Store Your False Eyelashes For Reuse

how to clean lashes

The trick to making your false eyelashes last several weeks, is to properly clean, and store them in a dry place. Mink eyelashes that are properly cleaned, can last up to 20x times. I use Mink lashes everyday from Glamonelashes.com. These lashes usually last me up to a month, and I wear a pair everyday, even to the gym. I honestly don’t leave the house without lashes, is a personal obsession of mine.

False eyelashes complete any makeup look, they also make your eyes look bigger, and brighter.  If you wear fake lashes daily, you have to clean and care for them in order to make them last as long as possible. For heavy eye makeup wearers, eyelash extensions are not the best thing, they can trap a lot makeup, dirt, and oils which can weaken the extensions, and make them fall off easily.

Here’s a step by step guide on how to clean your mink lashes.

Option 1:

  • Gently pick off any glue residue with tweezers.
  • Take a bowl of warm water add your favorite cleanser. Soak the lashes in the solution. I use Cerave hydrating cleanser.
  • Use an eye makeup remover or any makeup remover (oil free) and a q-tip to remove any excess dirt.
  • Place lashes in a nice eyelash holder so they can dry and keep their shape.
  • Brush them with an eyelash brush spoolie to separate the hairs.

Option 2:

  • It’s always great to remove the glue from your lashes after every use in order to avoid all of it pilling on.
  • Use tweezers and be super careful removing the glue.
  • If any makeup is on your lashes, soak 2 cotton pads in makeup remover (oil free) and gently press or pat the lashes in between them.
  • Use a clean- dry cotton pad or q-tips to gently dry the lashes and remove any excess.
  • Place your lashes into your eyelash holder to dry off and maintain shape.
  • Brush them with an eyelash brush spoolie to separate the hairs.
