1. What are True Glue’s false eyelashes made of?

True Glue’s falsies are made from cruelty-free synthetic fibers.

2. Are True Glue Lashes cruelty-free?

They are 100% cruelty-free and vegan! True Glue Lashes are made out of the finest and thinnest synthetic fibers to mimic mink fur – so it feels luxuriously silky (which is why we call them “silk lashes”).

3. How many times can each pair of True Glue False Eyelashes be worn?

With proper care, silk lashes can be worn about 20 times and synthetic lashes can be worn around 4-5 times. Here’s a quick tip we’d like to offer you: once you’ve removed your falsies, use makeup remover to remove all the glue from the falsies. Then put the falsies back in their original tray so they maintain a natural shape for a longer amount of time.

4. What are mink lashes? And why do some people prefer mink-free lashes?

Mink lashes are made from mink hair (mink are a kind of animal related to weasels and otters). Because mink lashes are created from animal hair, they are not cruelty-free. That’s why some people prefer mink-free lashes, and it’s why True Glue never uses animal-derived materials in our lashes.

5. How do you apply True Glue Lashes?

It’s very easy to apply True Glue’s lashes! If you’ve only recently begun wearing falsies, we suggest you use True Glue’s Lash Tweezer (coming soon), as this will make lash application even easier. Begin by removing the first lash from the lash tray. Then bring the lash next to your eye to see if the lash needs to be trimmed (if so, you can trim it with a pair of scissors). Next, hold the edges of the lash between your fingers and bend it into a U shape. Apply the lash adhesive along the lash band and wait 30 seconds or so for the glue to become tacky. Finally, use tweezers or an eyelash applicator to line the lash against your natural lash line (as close as possible), and press the lash against your lash line (begin with the center of the false lash, then glue it on from the inner to the outer side).

6. Does True Glue eyelash strips only come in one size?

Yes, True Glue’s eyelash strips are available in one standard size since you can then easily customize the size so it fits your eyes.

7. Is eyelash adhesive included with my purchase?

Eyelash adhesive is NOT included in your purchase. However, we do sell eyelash adhesives separately.

8. How do I remove my falsies?

We suggest these two techniques you can use to remove your falsies: (1) Hold the lash at its base with your fingers, then use your other hand to gently pull the lash’s outer corner towards your tear duct. Then repeat this for your other falsie. Your falsies should come off without much of a fuss or discomfort to you. (2) If the above method isn’t working very well for you, then use a cotton swab to apply a small amount of makeup remover or coconut oil on your lash line. Wait a bit for the lash adhesive to soften, then gently peel off the lash by pulling the outer corner of the lash band towards your tear duct. (Note: do NOT tug on your lashes to remove them, as this can damage both your natural and false lashes – not to mention, doing this is painful!).

9. What is the best lash adhesive removal?

You can use waterproof makeup removers, makeup removers that have an oil base or coconut oil to remove any excess lash adhesive left on your eyelids.

10. How do I care for my falsies?

Here are a few tips to extend the lifetime of your True Glue lashes: (1) Use our tweezer to hold one end of the band and peel the lashes softly off the tray. Do not pull on the lash hairs with your fingers, as this will damage the lashes and add dirt and oily residues on them. (2) Do not use mascara on directly the lashes. If you want to use mascara, then apply the mascara to your natural lashes before putting your falsies on. (3) After taking off your lashes, rid them of any mascara and glue. This can be done by holding the lash by the base and gently peeling off the excess mascara and glue. (4) Place the lashes back in the original tray and box so they keep clean and retain their shape.

11. How do I know which lashes are right for my eyes?

Your eyes are unique – no one else has eyes quite like yours. So we aim to provide a very wide selection of available lash styles. Finding the right lash depends on the makeup look you are seeking, as well as your eye shape. We encourage you to browse our selection until you find something you like! We also recommend measuring the lashes before applying the glue and cutting it to perfectly fit the contour of your upper eyelid.

12. Are the lash bands flexible?

True Glue lash bands are very flexible and soft – and very comfortable to wear.

13. What are lower lashes?

Lower lashes are applied the same way as upper lashes, except that you place them on the bottom eyelid and underneath the lash line.

14. Can I apply mascara to my falsies?

We do not recommend applying mascara to your True Glue Lashes, as this can ruin the quality of the hair and limit the number of times you can use it. Unfortunately, many cosmetic products contain oils that can ruin the shine and quality of the hair. You can, however, apply mascara on your natural lashes before applying your falsies, as this will not harm your false lashes.

15. Can I curl my lashes?

We do not recommend curling your True Glue Lashes because this can ruin the quality and shape of the hair and limit the number of uses. Also, we do not recommend using heated eyelash curlers because our lashes are based on synthetic material and heat can damage this material.

16. Can I wear True Glue Lashes if I have eyelash extensions?

We do not recommend wearing false eyelashes if you have eyelash extensions.

17. Where should I store my lashes?

To maximize the number of uses of your lashes, we suggest placing them in their original tray when not in use. This will protect the lashes from dust and moisture and prevent them from being damaged inside your makeup bag.

18. What happens if I get my falsies wet?

Try keeping your falsies free of water as much as possible. If your falsies get wet, or if they are fully submersed or in contact with water, their curl and shape will be damaged.

19. Can I swim with my lashes?

We do not recommend swimming, bathing, or going in water with your lashes on as this can ruin their curl and style.

20. Will the false eyelashes harm my own lashes?

They should not harm your natural lashes! When false eyelashes are applied correctly with a high quality and safe adhesive – and removed safely and gently – there is no harm done to your natural lashes. However, some eyelash glues contain harsh chemicals that can be irritating and and damage your natural eyelashes. That’s why we recommend that you always use True Glue adhesives, because they are mild and super safe for daily use.
