There is no reason that lashes should be a single-serving beauty product. Reusing your lashes is a great way to save money!
Follow the steps below to clean synthetic eyelashes the right way.
1. Remove the Glue
Using tweezers, gently pick off any leftover glue that is on the lash band.

2. Soak Your Lashes
To further take off any remaining glue or eyeshadow off, use an oil-free micellar cleansing water to submerge the lashes. This will loosen any makeup that may still be hidden between the hairs.
Tip: Use cotton swabs to take off the remaining residue.
3. Let Them Dry
Using a microfiber towel or tissue, gently pat your lashes dry.
Tip: You can also set the lashes aside and wait for them to dry instead of patting them down.
4. Shape the Lashes
FYI: When buying a new set of fake eyelashes, don't toss the box. Instead, use it to store your lashes!
Place your fake lashes in the original semi-circle plastic to help keep their shape for the next application.
5. Comb Your Falsies to Air-dry
Using a spoolie wand, carefully brush out the hairs on your false eyelashes. Combing your lashes after cleaning will help them retain their shape.
