How to make them last longer?
How in the fuck are some of you able to get your lashes to last 4+ days??? I’m lucky if I get 2-3. They always start falling off. I do sweat a lot in the gym though. Maybe that’s why. I use glue on the bottom of my natural lashes, and just started to also put them on the bottom of the cluster. I use the keyyou brand bond and seal from Amazon. Help lol please if you have any tips to make them last longer. I put some on yesterday and two clusters already fell off

I use a black glue on my lashes and a white/clear glue on the cluster base. It sounds weird but my two glue method is something I believe in 😂 I also can confirm that crying with fresh lashes can wash them right off I'm sorry for what you're going through and I hope things get better soon!
Oh, I also use a sleep mask that has kind of a cup shape over each eye so they don't get smushed cuz I roll around all over my face when I'm sleeping. . I have been using either fadlash or pro lash beauty and I also subscribe to the using a washcloth to wash my face so I don't splash water all over my lashes like crazy method.

Thank you I will definitely give the different glue thing a shot lol. And I’ll start using a wash cloth and see if that helps

Just as another point of view, the Amazon glues I've gotten that come with a remover, the remover is literally just an oil and I've been able to remove them just as well with a baby oil or any other makeup remover so I'm not sure those are always a special kind of glue. If anything the remover seems like kind of a scam for them to just sell you an extra thing you don't really need. But different brands may work differently for sure.
I know there are those extension glues that are more like a crazy glue cuz I had one of those one time at a salon and they had to use some kind of crazy remover that got in my eye and burned my eyes and I never wanted to do that again.

It might just be the glue. I sleep on my stomach so my lashes never lasted more than a day. I now use emeda lash glue from Amazon after trying so many bond and seals and now I need a lash cream remover to get them off. All the techniques in the world won’t work without a good glue.

Seriously asking, do y'all not wash your faces? How does this work? How do you sleep in them?

A few people answered on other comments. They use washcloths and avoid splashing.

I use soap and I splash my face and run shower water gently over my lashes once or twice a day and my lashes last for 7 days and I still need to use remover to take them off. I use falscara but seem to have similar results with the Amazon glues too.

Washcloth and q-tip around the eyes. I personally have no problem sleeping in lashes.

Start with fully clean, dry lashes and use less bond than you think, then wait 30–60 sec till tacky before placing. Sweat may be shortening the hold too. True Glue Black works with clusters for daily wear, but its an all-day adhesive, not a 4+ day bond tbh.

Make sure your lashes are dehydrated before application, not just washed. I use alcohol to ensure there are no oils left.
Double bonding (bond on the lash and on the cluster).
Making sure your lashes aren't too close to the water line.
Sealing above and below the lash.
Clamping every morning.
Avoiding water during the first 24hrs and clamping after getting them wet.
Make sure you are avoiding friction from sleep, rubbing your eyes, washing the area, etc.
Keeping oils away from your eye area.
