Artificial eyelashes are able to stay on the eyelids for 3-4 weeks only if the styling is done correctly. This is only possible if the stylist uses professional cosmetics. Want to learn how to work with false eyelashes glue in summer, when temperatures are really high? Check out Rarity's short tutorial!

In order for the styling created with artificial eyelashes to be long-lasting, the polymerization process should occur correctly.Polymerization in simple terms is nothing more than drying of the glue, forming a bond between the artificial eyelashes and the natural ones. The most important factors that affect the durability of the bond are:

  • humidity, i.e. water,
  • air temperature.

When it comes to styling artificial eyelashes with glue, the most important factor is humidity.The polymerization process occurs only when the air humidity is quite high. Otherwise, the substance will not form a fast and correct bond.

Air humidity and the gluing of false eyelashes:

So how to solve the puzzle of what air humidity will be most favorable? For the adhesive substance, the level of saturation of the air with moisture is irrelevant. The level of water molecules in the air can be low, medium or high. Too low a humidity will translate into the occurrence of unfavorable reactions that make clients quite uncomfortable. Such as pinching or burning of the eye during styling.

If the humidity during the styling of false eyelashes is too low, the glue will draw water directly from the client's body. This results in problematic discomforts, such as redness of the eyes or dryness of the nasal mucosa.

Adverse conditions do not cause adhesives to fail to polymerize. This phenomenon practically always occurs, although the lack of matching humidity translates into a worse styling experience. For this reason, it is important to make sure that the humidity level remains constant.

Temperature and its effect on eyelash adhesives

A good eyelash glue needs a relatively low temperature to retain its adhesive properties. The human body has a temperature of 36.6 degrees Celsius, and professional eyelash adhesives still perfectly "catch" clumps of false eyelashes under such conditions.

Any cyanoacrylate glue needs high humidity and relatively low temperature. This applies to virtually all substances for styling artificial eyelashes. If the stylist does not ensure proper technical conditions during the gluing process, the glue can become somewhat toxic due to the fact that it is a vaporous substance.

Every stylist knows that gluing false eyelashes in summer is much more difficult than in winter. Fortunately, this is just a placebo effect. In high temperatures, adhesives are less tactile and more fluid. How can you avoid the frustration of this and maintain the quality of your eyelash styling services? It's worth using Rarity's guide and the 3W rules:

  • SLOW DOWN,
  • EXTEND,
  • MORE.

Working with eyelash glue in the summer requires precision. For this reason, it is worth choosing a substance that binds more slowly, will be those adhesives that have more cyanoacrylates and fewer stabilizers in their composition. Ask at a specialized eyelash extension store which glue will be suitable. At rarity, the glue for summer is rarity pro3. This will give you, as a stylist, time to glue the clumps of lashes more precisely. Or maybe you don't want to change your current glue? You can create a new concoction from your favorite glue with this slower one to match the setting time to the prevailing temperature conditions.

If your salon has high temperatures reaching up to 30 degrees Celsius, it's a good idea to scoop a little more glue. This will make the styling go more smoothly and without side effects on the part of the client.

Eyelash styling in high temperatures - how to take care of the comfort of work?

When running your own eyelash styling salon, it is a good idea to keep the temperature and humidity conditions on the premises at a uniform level. Rather, give up artificial devices for changing temperature conditions, such as air conditioning. By doing so, you will lead to the fact that the glue completely does not want to work with you. Then the eyelashes will slip, fall apart, or you simply won't stick them on as you should.

Maintaining optimal conditions in the beauty salon should be done naturally. By doing so, you will reduce the risk of touching adhesives that will require a bit more touching.

Remember, every stylist's best friend is a jade stone, a stand that makes working with cyanoacrylate glue easier.

For example: previously implemented styling with a touch of 1 second at higher salon temperatures must be performed with holding the clump for up to 2 seconds. This translates into the time it takes to perform the treatment, and thus the number of clients you will be able to accommodate in one day.
