Choosing the Right Lash Adhesive for Your Skill Level

The right adhesive can make or break your lash extension work. With so many options available, it's important to choose one that matches your skill level and working conditions.

Understanding Drying Times

Adhesive drying times range from 0.5 seconds to 3+ seconds. Here's what each means for you:

  • 0.5-1 second: For experienced technicians with quick, precise placement
  • 1-2 seconds: Ideal for intermediate technicians
  • 2-3+ seconds: Perfect for beginners who need more working time

Our Elyssien Adhesive Range

We've developed our adhesives to meet every need:

  • Elyssien Premium (0.5-1 sec): Our professional-grade adhesive for experienced techs
  • Elyssien Sensitive: Gentle formula for clients with sensitive eyes

Environmental Factors

Your working environment affects adhesive performance:

  • Ideal humidity: 45-60%
  • Ideal temperature: 18-22°C
  • Use a hygrometer to monitor conditions
  • Adjust your adhesive choice based on your environment

Storage Tips

Maximise your adhesive's lifespan:

  • Store upright in a cool, dry place
  • Replace every 4-6 weeks after opening
  • Never store in the fridge (despite popular myths)
  • Keep the nozzle clean and replace caps tightly
