Infinit Lash Products Explains How Long Eyelash Extension Glue Is Good For

Infinit Lash Products, based in Del Mar, California, has published a blog post that explains how long an eyelash extension glue will last and how to make it last longer. In the article titled “How Weather Affects Your Eyelash Extension Adhesive”, professional lash artist and Infinit founder Tasha Land offers three ways to ensure that the adhesive will provide quality results despite the warmer temperatures of the summer months.

Tasha Land says, “In the last blog post titled 6 tips to maintain your lashes during the summer months, I discussed tips to make sure your eyelash extensions get the extra TLC they need in the warmer months but keeping those beautiful eyelash extensions in tip-top shape actually starts with your adhesive. Humidity and high temperatures are enemies of eyelash extension adhesives so what can you do to protect it from being damaged in the summer months?”

For those who are curious as to how long is eyelash extension glue good for, the temperature and humidity can contribute to how long it will last. The first way to prolong the shelf life of the eyelash extension adhesive is to store it in a cool, dark place. It is advisable to ensure that the environment is stable and that there are no temperature fluctuations. If it becomes too humid or too hot, the viscosity and adhesiveness of the glue is affected. The optimal temperature range for the eyelash extension adhesive is 64 to 77 degrees Fahrenheit. Thus, it would be best to store it in a dark and cool drawer with a silica pack and some dry rice to keep the moisture away and maintain its freshness.

Meanwhile, the optimal humidity for the eyelash extension adhesive is 50 to 60 percent. It is advisable to buy a digital hydrometer to determine the humidity of the working space, especially the area where the adhesive is kept. And for those who have a relatively dry climate, buying a humidifier or diffuser is a requirement. These will pump moisture into the air in order to increase the humidity and put it back in the optimal range. But for those who live in an environment that is usually humid, a dehumidifier will be required so as to remove moisture from the air to bring down the humidity to the optimal range. And for those who are ordering the glue online, it would be best to provide some instructions to the delivery person to avoid exposing the product to direct sunlight once it is dropped off. If it is left out in the sun or heat, the adhesive will get damaged.

The second way to prolong the shelf life of the eyelash extension adhesive is to avoid exposing it to oxygen. Oxygen can change its viscosity and essentially spoils it. It is important to keep the lid on tightly when it is not in use. Leaving the bottle open for long periods of time, or frequently opening and closing it, will expose the adhesive to oxygen. This will cause the glue to become thick and gummy, which means it will not longer be usable as a lash extension adhesive.

And finally, it is important to replenish the adhesive supply as needed. Once a bottle of adhesive is opened, it has a shelf life of six weeks. But this can be reduced by exposing it to oxygen, heat, and high humidity. Thus, it is vital to replenish them to ensure they are always fresh. Unopened bottles can be kept in the freezer, but not in the refrigerator, to prolong their shelf life. However, before they can be used, they have to be removed from the freezer for at least four hours.
