Eyelash glue containing cyanoacrylate is sensitive to the moisture (humidity) and therefore has a short shelf life.
Most eyelash adhesives last around six months unopened, and a month after opening. It is important to check with your supplier to find out how long lash adhesive lasts before opening and after. Once eyelash glue bottle has been opened and exposed to the air, it starts to degrade, so it is best to date your lash glue bottle and discard it after 4 weeks.
I AM Lash PRO eyelash glue lasts 6 months after purchasing if stored correctly and 4 to six weeks depending how often lash glue bottle is being opened.
All eyelash adhesives should be stored in a cool, dark, dry place, away from direct sunlight.
For a busy, full time lash artist that lash three or more clients a day, five days a week, we recommend changing eyelash adhesive bottle every three to four weeks. The more often the bottle is opened the more exposed to the moisture in the air. The strength and consistency changes much quicker, therefore needs to be discarded sooner.
For those eyelash technicians who do few sets of eyelash extensions a week, lash adhesive can last up to six weeks if stored correctly.
P.S. Don’t be tempted to pop your adhesive in the fridge, condensation is a big no no!!
And always remember fresh eyelash glue = great eyelash retension.
