FAQs
Are magnetic lashes safe?
Magnetic lashes are generally safe to wear. We didn’t experience any irritation when testing them, but that doesn’t mean other users won’t. It’s also worth noting that magnets can cause serious harm if swallowed, so be sure to keep yours out of reach of children.
How do you apply magnetic lashes?
Applying magnetic lashes is simple, we promise! Start by trimming the new lashes to fit your eye. Be sure to trim close to the magnets so the edges don’t lift. Next, curl your natural lashes. Then apply a magnetic liner the way you would your normal, everyday liquid eyeliner. Let it dry for a minute or two before placing the lashes on top of the liner.
How do you remove magnetic lashes?
To remove magnetic lashes, start at the outer corner of the eye and gently peel them off. Use the same makeup remover you use with your trusty waterproof mascara to wipe away any excess liner from your lids, as well as the lashes.
How long do magnetic lashes last?
It depends on the brand. Some magnetic lashes are good for up to 20 wears while others can be worn up to 60 times with proper care and storage.
How do you clean magnetic lashes?
Dip a Q-tip in some makeup remover or micellar water and gently wipe away any excess liner from the band after every use. Be sure to read the instructions because some brands require a non-oil-based remover.
