How to Remove False Lashes? Remove Press On Lashes Safely

You had a beautiful evening, your press on lashes sat perfectly — and now you want them off again. But how do you do that without tugging at your lashes or taking your own lashes with them? Good news, Queen: with the right method it takes less than a minute and everything stays intact. We'll show you exactly how.

The most important rule: never pull

Let's start with the golden rule, because this is where it usually goes wrong. Never just pull your false lashes off. However tempting — yanking them takes your own lashes with them, irritates your eyelid and damages the cluster so you can't reuse it.

The adhesive lets go by itself once you dissolve it. So you don't need any force. All you need is a little oil and thirty seconds of patience.

What you need

• An oil-based remover (or an oil-based micellar water / a few drops of mild oil)
• A spoolie or clean cotton bud
• A mirror and clean hands

Step by step: how to remove false lashes

1. Wash your hands and remove any eye make-up around the lash line, so you can see clearly.
2. Put some remover on your spoolie or cotton bud and gently apply it along the lash line, where the cluster is attached. Not in your eye — only on the adhesive edge.
3. Let it soak in for 30 to 60 seconds. Give the oil time to soften the adhesive. This is the secret: patience instead of force.
4. Gently push the cluster loose, from the outer corner inwards. It will now come off by itself — if it still feels stuck, add a little more remover and wait a bit longer.
5. Remove the last bits of adhesive from your eyelid with a clean cotton bud and some remover. Rinse your face with lukewarm water afterwards.

Done. No pain, no damaged lashes, and your cluster is still intact.

How to clean false lashes so you can reuse them

One of the best things about press on lash clusters is that with good care you can wear them more than once. Here's how to keep them beautiful:

• Gently remove old adhesive residue from the cluster with tweezers or your fingers.
• Wipe the lashes clean with a cotton bud and a little micellar water.
• Let them dry completely on a clean surface and store them back in the box.

Frequently asked questions

How long do false lashes stay on?
Our pre-glued press on lash clusters last up to 4 days on average, depending on your skin type and how often you touch your eyes. Want them off sooner? The step-by-step guide above always works.

Does removing them hurt?
No — not if you dissolve the adhesive with remover first. Pain only happens when you pull. So: oil, patience, and gently work them loose.

Can I use regular make-up remover?
An oil-based remover works best, because oil dissolves the adhesive. A water-based cleanser does that much less well.

How often can I reuse my false lashes?
Several times with good care. Once the cluster loses its shape or hold, it's time for a new set.
