How Many Times Can You Reuse False Lashes?

A pair of reusable false lashes can last for several wears. How many you’ll get depends on the style, how you remove and clean them, and whether the bands still hold their shape. The instructions for your specific lashes are the best place to start.

How Many Times Can You Wear the Same Pair?

If your strip lashes are designed to be reusable, you can wear them again as long as the band is clean, holds its shape and still sits comfortably. Gently peeling away adhesive residue and keeping the lashes in their original tray can help you get more wears out of a pair.

Self-adhesive lash clusters work differently. Check the product instructions for how long you can wear them and whether they can be reapplied once removed.

How Do You Know When to Replace False Lashes?

It’s time for a fresh pair when the band has warped, the fibres are shedding or fraying, or the lashes no longer sit neatly. Replace them if makeup or adhesive residue remains after cleaning, or if they feel uncomfortable when you put them on.

How to Clean Reusable Strip Lashes

1. Remove the lashes gently, following the product instructions.
2. Carefully lift any loose adhesive from the band.
3. Wipe away makeup residue using the cleaning method recommended for your lashes.
4. Let them dry completely.
5. Return them to their original tray to help keep their shape.

Follow the care instructions for self-adhesive clusters separately. Their bands already have adhesive on them.

Can You Sleep in False Lashes?

Take conventional glue-on strip lashes off before bed. Overnight wear can bend the band or leave the strip partly detached. If the lashes are designed for reuse, clean and store them so they’re ready for your next look.

How Long Do Press & Go Underlashes Last?

How to Get More Wears Out of Your False Lashes

Handle reusable strip lashes by the band, clean them gently after each wear and store them in their tray once they’re dry. Before putting them back on, check that the band is clean and still follows the shape of your lash line.
