Do You Reuse False Lashes? (I do) - Makeup and Beauty Blog
Toss 'em or keep 'em? Which way to go?
Start of all, if yous liked a pair of faux lashes you wore and wouldn't mind wearing them again, ain't no shame in that game. I reuse mine. All. The. Time.
Might equally well get the nigh bang for your buck, ya know, and salvage some extra dough for your cat'southward gravy fund.
We all know how that is. 🙂
So, if yous liked a pair of false lashes enough to reuse them, hither'south what you tin can do…
False Lashes, Take two: Reusing Your Fake Lashes
- Starting time, after carefully removing the lashes, I soak a Q-tip with regular isopropyl rubbing booze from the drugstore, and then gently run the Q-tip along the band and the false lash fibers to sanitize them and remove any remaining adhesive, bits of mascara and other eye makeup.
- If that doesn't take care of every last bit of glue or other gunk (and it usually doesn't become every last tidbit of glue), I gently end the cleaning with my fingers, peeling away the terminal shreds of tiny gum globs.
- Then, I just identify the lashes back into their original packaging (the ane for the right heart on the right side, and the left eye on the left side), which retains their shape and keeps them clean until the next time I use 'em.
This is probably pretty obvious, just I think it's worth mentioning anyway: reusing lashes worn past someone else is a big no-no for germ-free reasons (pinkeye, anyone?). I'm sure yous already knew that because, hello, information technology'south pretty gross, but I'm just putting it out there. 'Nuff said.
I've worn my off-white share of false lashes over the years, and mostly, I think you do get what yous pay for. The pricier ones from brands like MAC and Shu Uemura do tend to agree up better than the dirt cheap ones on closeout at the drugstore, but that's not always the case. I'yard a big fan of reusing the Ardell Demi Wispies.

These are my off-road tires…
My in-laws up in Redding live right adjacent to a small-scale nature preserve with a pond in the eye frequented by cute geese and ducks, which was enough to get me to run outside for the get-go time in ages.
I'm usually a treadmill runner, you see, mostly because it's easier on my knees, and I don't have to worry about traffic or the elements or beingness enlightened of my surroundings at all, LOL! I just run.
But the downside to running on the treadmill is that it's incredibly slow.
Ughhgh… Look at me! I'one thousand a hamster in a wheel.
So I did some trail running last weekend, and it was tons of fun! — looking at the scenery and chasing dragonflies and waving at the other runners and people walking their dogs (sadly, I didn't see any cats).
Ane matter about running outside, though: dominicus protection.
I used Neutrogena Age Shield terminal weekend (I like information technology because it doesn't feel greasy) and Clarins Sunscreen Intendance Oil Spray for Body and Hair. I spray it on my hair and legs; information technology has a lovely sheen and smells just like summer.
Also, identification. I always bring my I.D. with me, even though I'm pretty sure everything will be fine, merely you never know. It's always a good thought to carry some form of identification with you when you're running, especially when you're running by yourself.
I keep mine in a hidden pocket in the waistband of my Zella Alive-In Capris.
Your friendly neighborhood beauty aficionado,
Karen
