Preparing Your Natural Lashes for Application

Before you even touch your OUAI false lashes, it's crucial to prepare your natural lashes. Start by ensuring your eyelids are clean and free of any makeup or oil. Use a gentle oil-free cleanser to remove any residue, as oils can prevent the lash adhesive from bonding properly. If you wear contact lenses, remove them before application to avoid any irritation.

Next, curl your natural lashes with an eyelash curler. This helps them blend seamlessly with the false lashes. Apply a thin coat of mascara to your natural lashes to give them volume and a base for the falsies to adhere to. Allow the mascara to dry completely before moving on to the next step.

• Use an oil-free cleanser to remove makeup and oils from eyelids.
• Curl natural lashes and apply a thin coat of mascara for better blending.

How to Apply OUAI False Lashes Like a Pro

Applying false lashes can be tricky, but with the right technique, you'll get the hang of it. Begin by gently removing the OUAI lashes from their tray. Hold the lash band close to your eye to measure the length. If the lash is too long, trim the outer edge—not the inner corner—to ensure a natural fit. Remember, it's better to cut a little at a time than to over-trim.

Apply a thin, even layer of lash adhesive along the band and wait 20-30 seconds for it to become tacky. This step is crucial for a strong hold. Using tweezers or a lash applicator, place the lash as close to your natural lash line as possible. Start from the center, then press down the inner and outer corners. Hold for a few seconds to secure the bond. For a seamless look, you can apply a bit of eyeliner along the lash line to hide the band.

• Trim lashes from the outer edge for a custom fit.
• Wait for adhesive to become tacky before applying.
• Use tweezers for precise placement along the lash line.

Removing Your OUAI Lashes Safely

Proper removal is just as important as application to keep your natural lashes healthy and your OUAI falsies reusable. Never pull or tug at the lashes, as this can damage both your natural lashes and the false lash band. Instead, soak a cotton pad with an oil-based makeup remover or micellar water and hold it against your closed eye for 20-30 seconds. This will dissolve the adhesive without force.

Gently slide the lash off from the outer corner inward. If you feel resistance, apply more remover and wait. Once removed, carefully peel off any excess glue from the band using tweezers. Store your lashes in their original tray to maintain their shape for future use. Avoid using water or soap on the lashes, as this can ruin the curl.

• Use an oil-based remover to dissolve adhesive gently.
• Slide lashes off from the outer corner—never pull.
• Clean glue residue with tweezers and store in the tray.

Tips for Long-Lasting Wear and Reusability

To get the most out of your OUAI false lashes, proper care is essential. After each use, clean the lash band with a tiny amount of micellar water on a cotton swab to remove any leftover adhesive or makeup. Avoid getting the lashes wet, as moisture can damage the fibers. Store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.

If you notice the lashes losing their curl, you can gently curl them with a clean mascara wand or use a lash curler on the band only. With proper care, OUAI lashes can be reused up to 10 times, making them a cost-effective and eco-friendly choice. Pair them with complementary products like the Mile High Hydra Mist for a complete beauty routine.
