Frequently Asked Questions About Lash Glue & Retention
-
The drying times for LashJoy's eyelash extension glues vary based on temperature and humidity to suit different application needs. For optimal results, use our lash adhesives within their recommended temperature and humidity ranges:
Drying Time: 0.5 - 4 seconds, depending on environmental conditions. Use the lash glue at the upper end of the range for faster drying and at the lower end for a slower set.
- Aquila LOW (1 - 3 seconds) 22-25°C, 35-55% humidity
- Aquila MEDIUM (1 - 4 seconds) 23-27°C, 50-75% humidity
- Azure LOW (0.5 - 2 seconds) 20-25°C, 20-65% humidity
- Speed LOW (0.3 - 1 seconds) 20-24°C, 20-65% humidity
-
Unopened: For optimal lash retention results, use your lash extension glue within 3 months of the purchase date. Ensure it's stored upright in a small airtight container, accompanied by oxygen absorber sachets. Keep in a cool, dry place or refrigerate.
Once Opened: To achieve the best bond strength and lash retention, use the lash adhesive within 1 month. It's advised to replace the adhesive every 30 days for peak performance. Avoid returning the opened adhesive to the fridge, as temperature changes can cause condensation to build up on the inside of the bottle, which will accelerate its degradation. Ensure the cap is on tight after each use.
-
Choosing the right lash adhesive comes down to your working environment (humidity and temperature) and your experience level.
For best results, always match your adhesive to your room conditions and technique. You can find exact humidity ranges, set times, and comparisons in each product description or our adhesive comparison guide.
• SPEED 0.03 Second Lash Glue - Our most advanced formula with an ultra-fast 0.03 second set time and a wide working range up to 65% humidity. Designed for experienced lash artists who isolate cleanly, work fast, and need a glue that won’t slow them down.
• Azure Low Humidity Lash Adhesive - An inky blue, carbon-free formula that dries clear on the lash line. Ideal for artists who prefer the look and control of a clear-style glue, especially in low-humidity environments.
• Aquila Low & Medium Humidity Lash Adhesives - Flexible set times that adapt well to changing conditions, making them a reliable choice for consistency and control.
-
An opened bottle of LashJoy lash glue is effective for about 4-6 weeks, although we recommend replacing it every 30 days for the best results. Unopened eyelash extension glues last up to 3 months if stored correctly, ideally in the fridge. However, once opened, avoid refrigeration to prevent condensation inside the bottle, which can degrade the lash adhesive. Regularly replacing glue (every 30 days) ensures optimal lash retention.
-
Stringy or gluggy lash glue often results from moisture exposure or incorrect storage. Humidity, leaving the cap off between uses, not “burping” the bottle, or frequent opening can cause eyelash extension adhesive to thicken. Always store the glue upright, tightly sealed, and in a dry place. Read more on storage tips to keep your glue fresh.
-
To prevent air bubbles, “burp” your lash glue bottle after dispensing by gently squeezing it to release trapped air, then wipe the nozzle with a lint-free wipe. This helps maintain smooth application and keeps your eyelash extension glue fresh longer. Be sure to place the cap back on tightly after each use.
-
Using the correct amount of lash adhesive is essential for optimal retention. Dip the extension lightly to coat just the base with lash glue. Avoid using too much, as it can weigh down natural lashes or affect retention. Ensure a bead at the base of the extension and never wipe excess glue on pads; instead, re-dip at the correct speed. Watch our YouTube tutorial for a demonstration.
-
Removing lash glue should be done by a trained professional to avoid damage. Use a specialized eyelash extension glue remover, applying gently with a microbrush or cotton swab. Self-removal may cause severe damage or blindness. Avoid pulling extensions, as this can harm natural lashes and may take months to recover. We recommend having lash glue removal done by a qualified artist.
-
Yes, LashJoy lash adhesives are safe for professional use and have undergone extensive testing to meet high safety and quality standards. All LashJoy eyelash extension glues are registered with AICIS (Australian Industrial Chemicals Introduction Scheme) and are free from banned chemicals. This ensures that each lash adhesive is safe, reliable, and meets industry regulations. Learn more about safe adhesive use.

LashJoy glues are crafted for excellent lash retention, typically lasting 6-8 weeks when applied correctly. Retention depends on factors such as humidity, application technique, natural lash shedding, and client aftercare routines. With proper use, eyelash extension glues can support a full lash growth cycle. For tips on optimizing lash retention, read our blog.
