Dusk UV/LED Lash Glue
Dusk is the UV/LED lash glue for artists who are done negotiating with humidity. Place every extension exactly where you want it, then cure it in ~1 seconds under your lamp. The bond sets when you decide — not when the room does.
A UV lash adhesive that works on your timing
Traditional lash glue starts curing the moment it leaves the bottle. Too dry and it won't set; too humid and it shock-cures, goes brittle and costs you retention. Dusk cures under light instead of moisture, so your hygrometer stops running your day.
That means unhurried placement on tricky lashes, clean isolation on fans, and the same result in a cold January studio as a muggy July one.
Why lash artists are switching to LED lash glue
- You control the cure. Adjust, reposition, perfect — then light it.
- Consistent in any climate. No more swapping glues between seasons.
- Faster sets. Less waiting between placements once your rhythm is in.
- Black that reads clear. Visible in the drop for accurate placement, and in my testing it dries effectively clear, so it works on black, brown and coloured lashes.
- TPO-free formula — meets current UK and EU cosmetics rules on photo-initiators.
- Made in South Korea to professional cosmetic standards.
Tested by a working lash artist
I've been lashing since 2014, and I don't put my name on a glue until it's been through my own clients' sets. Dusk came through after months of testing with fantastic retention results — paired with our prep routine. Like any glue, it's only as good as your prep — cleanse thoroughly before every set.

Who Dusk is for
Dusk is for trained lash artists already using, or training in, UV/LED lash systems. You'll need a compatible curing lamp 395-410nm and the correct eye protection for your client. New to UV lashing? Get trained before your first set — light-curing changes your workflow, your safety routine and your insurance.
For professional use only. Patch test 24–48 hours before a full set.
How to use Dusk
- Patch test your client 24–48 hours before the full set.
- Cleanse and prep the natural lashes as normal, then let them dry fully.
- Shake the bottle for few seconds before each dispense.
- Dispense a small drop, 2–3 drops at most, onto a jade stone or glue tray kept out of the lamp's beam and away from reflective surfaces.
- Dip, place and adjust each extension until you're happy with direction and attachment.
- Cure under your lamp for 1-2 seconds per section, with your client's eyes protected.
- Replace your drop every 30 to 60 minutes — stray light slowly thickens it.
- Wipe the nozzle, cap tightly and store the bottle in its light-proof pouch.

FAQ
What is UV lash glue?
UV lash glue is a lash extension adhesive that cures under UV/LED light rather than through moisture in the air. You place the extension first, then cure it with a lamp in seconds.
Is UV lash glue better than regular lash glue?
It's different rather than simply better. UV glue gives you control over when the bond sets and isn't affected by humidity, which makes results more consistent. It does need a compatible lamp, training and eye protection.
Do I need a special lamp for Dusk?
Yes. Dusk cures under a UV/LED lash lamp emitting 395-410nm. Cure times vary between lamps, so test a few lashes when you first switch.
How long does Dusk take to cure?
1s under a 395-405nm lamp at 20cm. Lower-powered lamps may need longer.
Does Dusk work on brown and coloured lashes?
Yes. Dusk is transparent black in the drop so you can see it, and it dries effectively clear on the lash.
Is Dusk TPO-free?
Yes. TPO is a photo-initiator banned in cosmetics in the UK and EU.
Do I still need to patch test with UV glue?
Yes. Patch test every new client, and every existing client switching to Dusk, 24–48 hours before their full set.
Can beginners use UV lash glue?
Dusk is for trained lash artists. If you're new to UV systems, complete UV training first and check your insurance covers light-cured treatments.
How should I store Dusk?
Keep it capped, in its light-proof pouch, somewhere cool and dark. Daylight and lamp light will slowly thicken it.
