hey guys! ive commented a couple times on the topic of eyelash pulling and false eyelashes. I have been pulling my lashes out since I was about 11. I have gotten really good at using false eyelashes, to the point i literally where them everyday now, as i'm sure many eyelash pullers do as well.
One problem I always came across was that the glue i used (the DUO supposedly "waterproof" glue) was really not that waterproof at all! if i ever got cought in the rain, started crying, or whatever other reason i may get my eyelashes wet, they would IMMEDIATELY fall off. even throughout the day if i was sweaty i would have to reapply the glue, so I always had some in my purse in case my lashes got loose for whatever reason
i know this DUO glue is the most common, as it is sold in drugstores and whenever i have read a post on here it seems I have always seen other eyelash wearers use it too.
***Well I stumbled upon another brand of glue, called "Ultimate Hold eyelash and eyebrow glue"*** heres the link:
http://www.headcovers.com/11187/ultimate-hold-eyelash-and-eyebrow-glue/
just out of curiosity i googled it to see if i could find a review. the first thing i saw was a girl that claimed how it was the first glue she was able to cry through and that it was absolutely waterproof. I had to see for myself!
i finally got it in the mail today, and i ahve to say i'm EXCTATIC with it. I haven't done a full test with it. but it did last ALL day long, and just now I went into the bathroom, and splashed my face with handfulls of water to see what happened. i tugged at my lashes and they didn't budge!!!
the full test will be to see what happens if i completely dunk my head in water. i'm a little doubtful that the glue will work while swimming or showering, but i'm gonna give it a shot!! a definite IMPROVEMENT though. keeps me at ease in case i'm with company and something happens!
i will keep you updated to see how it works under water hahahah

I have also used this back when it was called "Eyelash and Eyebrow Adhesive" and it does work really well! My eyelashes stay on all day. I haven't tried swimming or anything like that but just everyday use it works great. The only problem I have is trying to get the glue to come off the eyelashes after I take them off. Anyone have any suggestions for that?

yeah, i've tried http://www.headcovers.com/946/adhesive-remover-for-eyelashes/ but it didn't seem to do much. I normally just have to just my tweezers for 10 min to try and get it all off.

rub the area with baby or mineral oil then wash that off with baby shampoo. It's a gentle cleaner that won't burn your eyes.
