Factors that affect the lifespan of lash ribbons
Several factors can impact how long your lash ribbons last:

- Skin type (oily vs. dry): Oily skin may reduce adhesion.
- Frequency of touching or rubbing the eyes: Limit contact to preserve the lashes.
- Sleeping position: Sleeping on your back helps maintain the shape.
- Quality of lash ribbons: Higher-quality lashes tend to last longer.
- Exposure to makeup and cleansers: Clean lashes carefully to avoid buildup.
