Before you jump to conclusions and blame iton a "faulty batch," consider this: the issue is often related totemperature. Eyelash adhesives, likemany products, have their ideal working conditions. As a rule of thumb, the sweet spot for mostadhesives falls within a temperature range of 18°C – 24°C and a relativehumidity range of 40% - 60%. If theseconditions deviate even slightly, your adhesive can behave differently, and notin a good way.
Stringiness in eyelash adhesive istypically a result of the adhesive being either too cold or too hot. When the temperature drops below 18°C, theviscosity (thickness) of the adhesive changes, leading to that pesky stringytexture.
This unique stringing characteristic comesfrom a special, undisclosed ingredient within the adhesive – think of it as thesecret recipe in KFC's 11 herbs and spices. This ingredient not only helps create longer-lasting bonds compared toother adhesives but also provides excellent resistance to oil, heat, humidity,and water.
Now that you know the culprit behindstringy adhesive, the good news is that it's a straightforward fix. Don't rush to discard your adhesive just yet,it's salvageable.
1. Restore the OptimalTemperature: Start by bringing your adhesive back to the recommended roomtemperature. This is usually around20°C. You can use a special adhesiveshaker to speed up the process, ensuring it's evenly mixed and back to itsoriginal consistency.
2. Shake It Well: As mentioned,using an adhesive shaker, like the LashBase Shaker, is ideal for ensuring thatyour adhesive is thoroughly mixed. Thiswill transform your once-stringy adhesive back into the professional-qualityproduct you know and trust.
In conclusion, it's essential to store youradhesive at room temperature, or if it has been exposed to extremetemperatures, bring it back to that ideal range before use. Stringy adhesive is a common issue, but withthe right knowledge and quick fixes, you can maintain the professionalperformance you expect.
