What should I do if the magnetic eye lashes are not sticking properly?

Jun 19, 2025

If you're a fan of magnetic eye lashes, you've likely encountered the frustrating issue of them not sticking properly at some point. As a supplier of high - quality magnetic eye lashes, I've heard from numerous customers about this problem, and I'm here to share some tips and solutions to help you get the most out of your magnetic lashes.

Understanding the Problem

Before we delve into the solutions, it's important to understand why magnetic eye lashes might not be sticking properly. There are several potential causes:

1. Cleanliness

The area where you're applying the lashes, as well as the lashes themselves, need to be clean. Oils, makeup residues, or dirt on your eyelids can create a barrier between the magnets and your skin, preventing a strong bond. Similarly, if the magnets on the lashes are dirty, they won't attract each other effectively.

2. Magnet Strength

Over time, the magnets in your lashes can lose their strength. This can happen due to improper storage or simply from repeated use. If the magnets aren't strong enough, the lashes won't stay in place.

3. Incorrect Placement

Placing the lashes too far from your lash line or at an incorrect angle can also cause them to fall off. Magnetic lashes need to be positioned precisely on your natural lash line for a secure fit.

Solutions for Non - Sticking Magnetic Eye Lashes

Cleaning the Lashes and Eyelids

The first step is to ensure that both your eyelids and the lashes are clean. To clean your eyelids, use a gentle makeup remover to remove any traces of makeup, oil, or dirt. You can also use a cotton pad soaked in mild, oil - free cleanser to wipe your lids. Make sure to rinse thoroughly and pat dry with a clean towel.

For the lashes, gently wipe the magnets with a clean, dry cloth. If there's stubborn dirt or makeup on the lashes, you can soak them in a small bowl of lukewarm water with a drop of mild, oil - free soap for a few minutes. Then, rinse them under running water and pat dry with a soft towel. Let them air dry completely before using them again.

Checking and Replacing Magnets

If you suspect that the magnets have lost their strength, you can test them. Try bringing the two parts of the lash together. If they don't snap firmly into place, it might be time to replace the magnets. Some of our products, like the Magnetic Lashes, come with replaceable magnets. You can easily remove the old magnets and insert new ones following the instructions provided.

Correct Placement Technique

Proper placement is crucial for magnetic lashes to stay in place. Start by looking straight into a mirror. Hold the top lash strip with a pair of tweezers and place it as close to your natural lash line as possible. It should sit right on top of your lashes. Then, take the bottom lash strip and bring it up from below to meet the top strip. The magnets should attract each other and hold the lashes in place.

If you're having trouble with placement, you can practice a few times on a flat surface before applying them to your eyes. You can also use a lash applicator tool, which can help you position the lashes more accurately.

Additional Tips

Pre - Lining Your Eyes

Using a thin line of eyeliner on your lash line before applying the magnetic lashes can help create a more natural look and also provide a bit of extra grip. Our Magnetic Eyelashes with Eyeliner are a great option as they come with a built - in eyeliner that can enhance the adhesion and give you a seamless look.

Choosing the Right Style

Different styles of magnetic lashes have different magnet configurations. For example, our 5 Magnets Eyelashes offer a more secure fit compared to lashes with fewer magnets. If you have a problem with lashes falling off, you might want to consider trying a style with more magnets.

Storage

Proper storage is essential to maintain the strength of the magnets. Store your magnetic lashes in a clean, dry case. Avoid storing them in a place where they can be exposed to heat or moisture, as this can weaken the magnets.
