I wear false eyelashes almost everyday for 10+ hours and have never had a problem with the glue, though I would NEVER use the drugstore brands. I always use DUO from MAC. It’s the best! It lasts the whole day/night, you can sweat (I’m a dancer and wearing false eyelashes is a must for all stage work…it always lasts.) The lashes are easy to remove as well. Duo is a surgical adhesive for wounds, so it is very delicate. You don’t need a whole lot, and let it dry on the lash for 15-20 secs before putting them on your eyes (it’s tacky then and easier to put on.) Only use DUO! I have very sensitive skin and have never had any problems. PS you will need an oil based make up remover to completely remove all the glue at the end of the night.

I didn’t even know formaldehyde was in there. I am sensitive to that, so if I buy any glue, I will make sure to read the ingredients list carefully. I would like to try fakies, but I am scared they will come half off and look crazy in the wrong moment…

Many people are allergic to the latex in eyelash adhesive, it’s the most common reason for a reaction that I have found. There are some latex free alternatives- i believe both ardell & duo make latex free alternatives.

Yes–32 years ago I was the glamour queen star of my high school play and had to forego the falsies. I learned to apply eyeliner and eyeshadow to get a smoky look that faked lashes well enough for the stage. For real life, mascara is it. Even so, until recently, I had to be careful of several of those!
