How Often Do You Remove Your False Eyelashes?

Anyone who wears false eyelashes probably wishes those lashes could stay on their eyes forever — no need to spend more time or money applying them again. But in reality, false lashes will naturally fall off after some time. More importantly, for the health of your natural lashes, eyes, and the delicate skin around them, it’s necessary to remove false lashes regularly to give your lashes a chance to breathe and recover.

So, which type of lash removal schedule do you usually follow? Let’s take a look:

Salon Lash Extensions: 1-2 Months

Salon lash extensions are individually glued onto your natural lashes using special, very strong adhesive. Typically, they can last 1 to 2 months. However, many users report that after wearing salon lashes continuously for some time, their natural lashes become thinner and sparser.

This can be caused by many factors, such as having unlicensed or unprofessional technicians, improper application techniques, or using overly harsh glue. It may also be related to personal skin sensitivity, as repeated wear can make the skin around your eyes more sensitive, leading to allergic reactions to the lashes or adhesive.

Many users express discomfort from wearing lashes for extended periods and feel this can harm their lash health.

Cluster Lashes: 5-7 Days

Cluster lashes currently sold on the market usually last about 5 to 7 days. If you understand the natural lash growth cycle, you’ll know this duration is safe for your natural lashes.

Cluster lashes can be considered the perfect alternative to salon lash extensions. They save you both money and time, carry less risk of lash damage, yet still deliver a similar glamorous effect. Many beauty lovers who care about their lash health choose cluster lashes to enhance their makeup looks.

Self-Adhesive Lashes: 1-2 Days

Regular self-adhesive lashes typically last 24 hours, while VeyesBeauty’s Laser-Cutting Series can last up to 48 hours. The advantage of self-adhesive lashes is that you don’t need to apply glue yourself — they come with a strong adhesive strip, which is ideal for those who find glue application difficult or messy.

Their main benefits are convenience and speed. Wearing time is shorter, which means less irritation for your eyes, making them a safer and more flexible choice.

Magnetic & Lash Strips: Same-Day Wear

Some people believe that wearing lashes for more than one day can be harmful and prefer to remove them the same day. For these individuals, salon lash extensions or cluster lashes might not be the best fit. Luckily, there are lashes specially designed for this group — magnetic lashes and strip lashes.

Although long-lasting glue can make strip lashes last longer, many users prefer to remove them at the end of the day. They wear them only when going out and take them off immediately after returning home, protecting their natural lashes and allowing themselves to feel more comfortable and relaxed.

Magnetic lashes are especially suited for same-day wear. They don’t require glue or glue remover, and involve no chemical exposure, making them perfect for those with sensitive eyes or anyone wanting to maintain lash health.

After reading all this, do you feel like trying lashes that last for a shorter time might be better for your lash health? No need to worry too much! Although many long-term lash users report their natural lashes becoming sparser, this is often because they are used to seeing themselves with lashes on — when removed, the difference can feel surprising.

Also, don’t be alarmed by some lash shedding. Due to the natural lash growth cycle, losing about 5 lashes per day is completely normal. Your lashes are quietly growing back!

If you’re still concerned, pay more attention to lash hygiene in your daily routine. Try switching to same-day removal lashes occasionally to give your lashes a break. And to help lashes grow faster, pair your routine with Veyesbeauty Peptide-Enriched Lash Serum.
