Cluster lashes are a convenient way to enhance your lashes without the long-term commitment of extensions. To keep your lashes looking great and lasting longer, it's essential to follow a proper maintenance routine.
How to Properly Maintain Cluster Lashes
Here’s a step-by-step guide to maintaining your cluster lashes and ensuring they stay in top condition.
Use quality products
The first step to ensuring the longevity of your cluster lashes is to invest in high-quality products. Poor-quality lashes or adhesives can lead to irritation, premature lash loss, or damage to your natural lashes. Opt for a starter kit like the Cluster Starter Kit Day Dreamer, which includes everything you need for flawless application and maintenance.
Clean gently
Cleaning your lashes regularly helps remove dirt, oils, and makeup buildup that could compromise their hold. When cleaning, be gentle to avoid dislodging the clusters. Make sure you choose the right type of lash clusters for your needs. Check out our guide on how to Choose Lash Cluster to ensure you're picking the perfect style.
Avoid oils
Oils can break down the adhesive used to bond the clusters to your natural lashes. To avoid this, steer clear of oil-based makeup removers, skincare products, and serums around your eye area.
Brush lashes regularly
Brushing your cluster lashes helps keep them looking neat and prevents tangling. Use a clean spoolie brush and gently comb through your lashes daily. Want to know more about different lash styles? Check out our article on the different types of Cluster Lash styles for some inspiration.
Avoid heat and steam
Excessive heat or steam can weaken the adhesive and cause your clusters to fall out sooner than expected. Be mindful when using facial steamers, blow dryers, or spending time in saunas. This is an important step if you have sensitive skin. If you have sensitive skin you should find out whether cluster lashes are good for sensitive eyes before buying them.
Remove makeup carefully
When removing makeup, use non-oily, lash-friendly makeup removers. Pat around the eye area instead of rubbing to avoid tugging on your cluster lashes. This will help extend their wear and prevent any unnecessary strain on your natural lashes.
Avoid rubbing or tugging
Rubbing or tugging on your eyes can cause your lashes to shed prematurely. Treat them with care, especially when washing your face or removing makeup. This will help the clusters last longer and maintain their integrity.
Sleep with care
Sleeping on your face or rubbing your eyes while you sleep can lead to lash loss. If possible, sleep on your back and use a silk pillowcase to reduce friction. Learn more about maximizing the longevity of your lash extensions with our guide on how to make Cluster Lashes last.
Reapply lash bonder
Every few days, consider reapplying a lash bonder to reinforce the adhesive and ensure your clusters stay securely in place. For the best bond, make sure you’re using a high-quality glue. We recommend reading our guide on the best glue for Cluster Lashes.
How to store cluster lashes to keep them clean
When you’re not wearing your cluster lashes, store them in a clean, dry place. Proper storage helps keep them free from dust and bacteria, making them last longer for reuse.
