How to Use Lash Extension Glue Cream Remover
When clients decide to take a break from eyelash extensions, some extensions will shed naturally as part of the lash cycle. Others may stay in place, leaving the set looking uneven or sparse. A professional removal appointment gives clients a way to remove the remaining extensions without pulling on their natural lashes.
Why a Lash Tech Should Remove Eyelash Extensions
If your client decides against an infill, offer them a removal appointment. Pulling or picking at extensions can damage the natural lashes, and oil-based products are an unreliable way to loosen the adhesive. You can share our guide to professional versus DIY eyelash extensions with clients who want to understand the risks of DIY removal.
Which Lash Glue Remover Should You Use?
London Lash Cream Remover is designed for professional full-set removals. Its thick texture helps keep the product where you apply it, while its pink colour makes it easier to see which bonds you’ve covered and whether any cream remains. Use it to break down lash glue bonds, keeping the product away from the skin and eyes.
Follow the product instructions and allow at least 10 minutes for the remover to work. Fresh or dense sets may take longer, especially where more adhesive was used. If an extension doesn’t slide off easily, allow more time for the bond to soften.
How to Cleanse the Lashes After Removal
Remove all traces of cream and loosened adhesive before wetting the lashes. Moisture can cause residual adhesive to cure rapidly and leave a white residue, a reaction known as shock polymerisation.
Once the remover and adhesive residue have been cleared, you can use Protein Removing Pads to wipe away traces of makeup and oil, or cleanse the lash line with Sensitive Lash Shampoo.
Top Tips for Professional Lash Removal
- Lash extension removers are for professional use only. Encourage clients to book a removal appointment if they want to take a break from extensions.
- If adhesive remains on the lashes, follow the remover instructions and give the bond time to soften. Avoid tugging on the natural lashes.
- For dried adhesive on your tools, use the dedicated Glue Remover for Tweezers and follow the product directions.
