How Much Adhesive Should I Use During A Full Lash Set?
When using NovaLash’s adhesive and parafilm, you should only need about four drops to complete a full lash extension set. Since each drop goes a long way, you can complete more sets and infills with every bottle.
How To Use Less Lash Adhesive Without Sacrificing Retention
NovaLash products are meant to be used together to help you get the most out of every purchase. Our revolutionary Parafilm sheets are specially created to preserve your adhesive and prevent it from drying as you apply lash extensions. Best of all, our Parafilm can be conveniently placed on your glove to use as a flat dipping palette. With this efficient technique, you’ll experience a smoother application process, waste less glue, and get the most out of each bottle.
Tips For Maximizing Your Lash Adhesive
In addition to using Parafilm, try these techniques to use your lash adhesive more efficiently:
Use Your Adhesive Often
Adhesive becomes thicker over time. After opening a bottle, try to use it daily so it doesn’t become too thick from sitting on the shelf.
Tightly Cap Your Adhesive (Even While You Work!)
Leaving your adhesive bottle open while you work can cause your glue to thicken quickly. To make your adhesive last longer, tightly cap your bottle while you’re working and when you store it.
Avoid Overdipping Your Extensions
You may think using lotsof glue may provide better retention, but that’s not the case. Applying too much adhesive creates a slower drying time, increases your chances of clumping, and wastes that liquid gold.
Watch Your Humidity Levels
Humidity and temperature changes (even indoors) can affect the thickness of your adhesive during application. The AuraTM can help you monitor and maintain a consistent environment, which speeds up your lashing time and gives you control over the glue’s curing speed.
