They are larger segments, that are applied underneath the lash line where as extensions are applied to each individual lash by a lash technician. The bond used is a flexible glue that more similar to strip glue where extension adhesive hardens for a stronger hold. Extensions last 2-3 weeks where these last 7-10 days.

Cluster lashes are small segments of lashes applied individually to create a custom look. They’re more lightweight and flexible, ideal for DIY application and are applied underneath the lash line.

Strip lashes come pre-set on a single lash band and require trimming and glue along the entire strip and are applied above the lash line. Cluster lashes offer more natural blending and control over your final lash style.

Lash bond is a lightweight adhesive designed for DIY lash application. It acts like a glue but is formulated to be gentler on natural lashes while still providing a secure hold. Apply a small amount at the base of your natural lashes before placing your cluster lash segments.

To keep your lash applicator tools hygienic and precise, clean them after each use. Use a gentle oil-free makeup remover or 70% isopropyl alcohol on a cotton pad to wipe away any residual lash bond, sealant, or adhesive. Dry thoroughly before storing. Regular cleaning ensures better DIY lash application and prevents product buildup.

Revel Lash is committed to providing high-quality products, including options that are suitable for many with sensitive eyes. However, everyone’s skin and eye sensitivity is different.

However, it's important to note that over time, some individuals may develop sensitivities or allergies to lash adhesives. Additionally, lash loss can occur from bacteria buildup caused by improper cleaning. To help protect both your eyes and your natural lashes, make sure to gently wash your lash line daily with a lash-safe, oil-free cleanser.

At Revel Lash, we do not recommend reusing DIY lash segments. While some may attempt to reuse them, it’s difficult to ensure that the lashes are properly sanitized after wear. Bacteria and residue can build up on used lash clusters, especially when applied near the eye area.

As always, please follow best hygiene practices and avoid reuse to reduce the risk of irritation or infection.
