False Eyelash Glue (Strip Eyelash Adhesive)
False eyelashes can be a fabulous addition to your look. Choosing the right eyelash glue is essential to keeping your false eyelashes on securely without falling off half way during an important event.
Different false eyelashes require different types of glue, so you need to be prepared and know which glue works best for the eyelashes you like to wear.
Determine the type of false eyelashes that suit you best. You can purchase false eyelashes in full strips, small sections or individually. Eyelash strips tend to be more obvious but are easier to apply.
Decide which color of eyelash glue you want to use. Eyelash glue usually comes in clear or dark options. The clear eyelash glue goes on white but slowly fades to clear and is unnoticeable. The dark eyelash glue dries to a dark color wherever it is used and can be helpful if you’re trying to achieve a more dramatic look. Featured eyelash adhesives, DUO Adhesive and DUO Eyelash Adhesive, offer secure hold without added weight.
Choose waterproof eyelash glue if you want a strong, secure hold. Waterproof formulas, such as DUO Eyelash Adhesive, come in either clear or dark glues, depending on the look you are going for and generally last longer than other types of eyelash glues.
Read the product information on the eyelash glue you choose. There are several strip eyelash glue that are recommend for your false eyelash use.
They are
- Ardell LashGrip Adhesive — offers water-proof hold. Available in Dark or Clear.
- Shu uemura Eyelash Adhesive – offers gentle hold. Available in Clear.

I’ve tried this one eyelash glue from asia and it felt like someone was just pouring hot water into my eye! It stung so bad and burned for hours. I will never use china glue again. I’ve tried Ardell glue and they are okay. Has anyone tried Shu or Duo eyelash glue?

For a long time, I was using Ardell Lasgrip. Since then I have found Sherani adhesive and this undoubtedly is the best glue I’ve ever tried. Once the adhesive dries, my lashes feel secure for the entire day and I don’t have to check my false lashes every 20 minutes to see if half of the strips are flapping off on the sides. I got them at Madame Madeline but after a couple of months of use the glue started to clump up and separate. After trying another batch the same problem occured which is okay since they are pretty cheap. Problem is that Sherani Ahdesive is now discontinued!!! Madame told me Sherani had formulation issues and can no longer get their adhesive right… Now I am back to Ardell Lashgrip… I will try shu or duo soon…

Hi, is the duo glue better in the dark tone or the one that dries clear? What’s the difference between the two besides the color? Thanks!

I use only the dark tone ones. I have no problems removing the dark glue residue off. I prefer the dark tone because it blends right in with my eyeliner. With the other sometimes it dries a bit shiny and I don’t like that look.

@primegeek:
I was wondering the same thing and emailed madamemadeline about it. Here is the reply,
” DUO changed their packaging in 2008. Packaging for the new DUO Surgical Adhesive no longer have the word ‘surgical’ printed on the carton, however, the adhesive is still surgical grade. The manufacturer item number as well as the ingredients remain the same for this item; the only difference is the packaging change. We have contacted the manufacture was assured this is just a packaging change. Any DUO Adhesive that has the word surgical on the carton and tube is at least two years old.”

So far, Ardell Brush-on Adhesive is the best eyelash adhesive that I’ve used. This eyelash adhesive is new and can be used with both stripe as well as individual eyelashes. It does a good job of keeping your lashes on for the day and it is latex free. It’s a gentle product, not harsh on the eyes at all. When you remove your lashes, it comes off easily and it doesn’t ruin your eyelashes, so that you are able to use it a few more times (depending on which brand of false eyelashes you use). It does clear which is what I really love about the adhesive. I got my at http://www.madamemadeline.com/online_shoppe/proddetail.asp?prod=m52361ard

I have been using the DUO Eyelash Adhesive for my individual eyelashes, however, any form of liquid (water – hot/cold, tears, etc.) causes the eyelashes to come off. However, I do love that the product dries flexible instead of stiff. So, knowing that, do you carry any other eyelash adhesive for individual lashes that dries flexible and truly is waterproof? Now that the warmer weather is here, I need a product that will remain in place if I jump into a pool with friends so that I will not come out of the water with lashes all over my face or left in the pool.

All latex based adhesive including DUO Eyelash Adhesive is designed to bond skin to hair. The problem is that they do not last that long as they are not semi-permanent adhesive and will readily come off when you use it to apply individual lashes. So far all individual lash adhesive all dries stiff and they are less flexible and difficult to remove. This is not surprising as individual eyelash adhesive hold up the lashes and repeal water better.

I have used the DUO eyelash glue, the black water proof, it always lifts off the corners from the eye, at $10 a tub, not worth it,

This will be my first time using false eyelashes I want my eyelashes to look real for everyday uses I don’t want to put any mascara on them I just want to achieve a natural look with fuller eyelashes. What would be best for me—the individual lash or the full lashes?
