Maintaining clean false eyelashes is crucial for both hygiene and extending their lifespan. Glance Cosmetics understands the importance of proper care and is here to provide you with effective tips on keeping your false eyelashes clean. By following these guidelines, you can ensure that your lashes remain in pristine condition, offering you long-lasting and more comfortable wear.
Our vegan false eyelashes are a popular choice for those seeking cruelty-free and animal-friendly beauty products, and we offer 15+ styles for you to choose from, each offering a unique look to enhance your eyes. Proper cleaning and maintenance are essential to ensure the longevity and cleanliness of your vegan false eyelashes.
What are the Basics of False Eyelash Care?
To start, let's delve into the fundamentals of false eyelash care, as it forms the foundation for maintaining clean and healthy lashes. Understanding the materials commonly used in false eyelashes will help you identify the cleaning methods that work best for your specific lashes. There are two main types of false eyelashes:
- Synthetic Lashes: These are made from man-made materials such as synthetic fibers like nylon or polyester. They are generally more durable and easier to clean.
- Human Hair Lashes: Made from sterilized and sanitized human hair, these lashes provide a natural and realistic look. They require specific care to maintain their integrity.
All false eyelashes from Glance Cosmetics are made from 100% natural human hair fibre, hence we will focus on the best practices for cleaning and maintaining natural false eyelashes.
How to clean different styles of false eyelashes?
With proper cleaning techniques, you can maintain the cleanliness and longevity of your vegan false eyelashes. By following these guidelines, your vegan false eyelashes will stay beautiful and ready to enhance your eyes for multiple uses.
Natural-Looking False Eyelashes:
These lashes aim to enhance your natural beauty without appearing too dramatic, such as our MA CHÉRIE natural false eyelashes. To clean them:
- Gently remove any excess glue or makeup from the lash band using tweezers or your fingers.
- Dip a cotton swab in a gentle oil-free makeup remover and lightly brush along the lash band to remove any remaining residue.
- Place the lashes on a clean tissue or paper towel and allow them to air dry. Avoid using direct heat or hairdryers.
Dramatic and Full Volume Vegan False Eyelashes:
Dramatic false eyelashes such as our Capricious Natural False Eyelashes are specifically designed to provide a bold and striking effect. These lashes are designed to provide maximum volume and impact. To properly clean them:
- Carefully remove any excess glue or makeup from the lash band using tweezers or your fingers.

- Gently swish the lashes in the soapy water, being careful not to tangle or damage the hairs.
- Rinse the lashes under cool running water to remove any soap residue.

Wispy and Fluttery Vegan False Eyelashes:
The criss-cross pattern, lengthy and wispy nature, clean and vibrant appearance, and the ability to blend well make the Beach Time Natural False Eyelashes ideal for creating a soft and feathery appearance. To clean such false eyelashes:
- Remove any excess glue or makeup from the lash band using tweezers or your fingers.
- Pour a small amount of micellar water or a gentle makeup remover onto a cotton pad.
- Press the pad onto the lashes and gently swipe along the lash band and hairs to dissolve and remove any residue.

These lashes allow for customization and precise placement. Our INDIVIDUAL MAGIC 2 Natural False Eyelashes are little strips of different volumes and lengths, making them the perfect building blocks for creating your lash look.
To clean them:
- Use tweezers to carefully remove each individual lash or cluster from the lash band.
- Fill a small dish with a mixture of warm water and mild baby shampoo or lash cleanser.
- Place the individual lashes or clusters into the soapy water and gently swish them around for a few seconds.
- Rinse the lashes under cool running water to remove any soap residue.
- Place the lashes on a clean tissue or paper towel and allow them to air dry.
Preparing for the Cleaning Process
Before diving into the cleaning process, it's important to prepare yourself and your workspace to ensure optimal results. Follow these steps to get started:
-
Clean Hands and Workspace: Wash your hands thoroughly with mild soap to ensure they are clean before handling the lashes. Also, set up a clean and well-lit workspace, preferably using a magnifying mirror for better visibility.
-
Gentle Removal: Carefully remove your false eyelashes by softly pulling the band from the outer corner towards the inner corner of your eye. Avoid tugging or pulling too hard to prevent any damage to the lashes.
How to clean Human Hair False Eyelashes?
Now that you're ready to clean your human hair false eyelashes, let's explore different techniques to ensure their cleanliness without compromising their structure or longevity:
- Using Oil-Free Makeup Remover: Soak a cotton pad with oil-free makeup remover and gently press it against the lashes. Swipe the pad along the lashes, removing any residual glue or makeup. Take extra care not to wet the lash band excessively, as it may weaken the adhesive.
- Gentle Cleanser Method: Alternatively, you can use a gentle cleanser or lash cleanser specifically designed for human hair lashes. Apply a small amount of cleanser to a clean, disposable mascara wand or a soft brush and delicately brush through the lashes, focusing on the lash band and tips. Be careful not to tug or pull too hard, as human hair lashes are delicate. Cleaning human hair lashes requires a gentle touch to prevent any damage. The key is to use minimal product and avoid excessive rubbing or pulling.
- Removing Residual Glue: After cleaning, check for any residual glue on the lash band. Use a pair of tweezers or your fingers to carefully peel off any glue remnants. Take your time and be gentle to avoid damaging the lashes.
How to Dry and store Human Hair False Eyelashes?
After cleaning your human hair false eyelashes, it's crucial to dry and store them properly to maintain their shape and cleanliness. Follow these guidelines:
- Air Drying: Place your cleaned human hair lashes on a clean tissue or paper towel, ensuring they are spread out and not touching each other. Let them air dry naturally. Avoid using a hairdryer or any direct heat source, as this can damage the delicate hairs.
- Blotting Excess Moisture: Once the lashes are dry, gently blot them with a clean tissue or paper towel to remove any remaining moisture. This step ensures they are completely dry before storing them.
- Proper Storage: Store your natural false eyelashes in a clean and dry container. You can store them in the original case that the eyelashes came in. This protects them from dust, moisture, and potential damage, allowing you to reuse them multiple times.
Additional Tips and Best Practices
Here are some additional tips and best practices to help you maintain clean human hair false eyelashes:
- Cleaning Frequency: Clean your human hair lashes after each use to maintain their cleanliness and prolong their lifespan. Regular cleaning removes residual glue, makeup, and debris, ensuring they remain in optimal condition.
- Avoid Excessive Mascara: It's generally not recommended to use mascara on human hair false eyelashes, as it can cause clumping and make them difficult to clean. If you prefer added volume or length, choose lashes that already have those features.
- Be Gentle During Removal: When removing your false eyelashes, be gentle and avoid pulling or tugging on the hairs. This prevents unnecessary shedding and maintains the lashes' integrity.
- Use a Lash Brush: After cleaning and drying your false eyelashes, use a clean mascara wand or a lash brush to gently comb through the lashes. This helps maintain their shape and ensures they look their best when you wear them.
