how to clean & rEuse
Eco lashing!
Good for the environment & your pocket!
Reuse your lashes until they fall apart!
Recycle & reuse wherever possible. x
With gentle care these lashes can be cleaned & reused until they fall apart so here are some tips to make the most of them.
Once you have removed the lashes pop them in a container, (I use a little glass jar with a screw top lid).
Pour in just enough rubbing alcohol to cover the lashes & leave to soak. The longer you soak, the easier they are to clean. I like to leave mine to soak overnight. you can see that the glue swells up & looks like jelly gunk! that's when they are ready for cleaning.
On a lint free surface with a soft make up brush, I like to use plain paper. Gently rub away any excess gooey glue residue & set aside to dry.
once dry, comb through with a clean spoolie to fluff the lashes back to life.
Please note as the lashes are hand made, there will always be slight inconsistencies 95% of the time they can be cleaned & reused many times, be extra gentle to avoid losing any fibres when cleaning.
When Im done, I like to keep my lashes clean & safe in a lash extensions drawer. I use with silicone pads on the trays to hold the lashes gently in place. See below for links to useful lash care items x.

Rubbing alcohol: Isopropyl Alcohol (the stuff that's in our anti bac hand gel) is not for use anywhere near your eyes. 90-99% alcohol is great for cleaning lashes x
Spoolie: reusable mascara wands
Silicone pads: there are lots of options out there but these are nice and thin and easy to trim to fit the drawers perfectly as they are a little bigger than the size of the drawers. These are amazing as they are tacky & hold the lashes gently I place. You can also rinse with soapy water to clean.
