WHY LASHES MIGHT NOT LAST AS LONG
-
Someone who suffer from oily skin or has dry skin that is using oil products to help with dryness may lose their lashes sooner- too little moisture will not cure the glue and too much moisture will over cure. This causes the glue to go in shock resulting in brittle bonds and can also cause the glue to turn white (happens often with watery eyes during the application).
