I think you need to use an oil based cleanser - though my false eyelash wearing is a thing of the distant past.

ah see i tried oil based remover to no avail and ended up with half falsies and half my own.....when that looked ridiculous i pulled em.

most of my own lashes came out with the falsies.....

i might go back to the salon to have em removed....

What glue are you using? Is it the weekend lash glue with cluster lashes?? The 'normal' glue you get with a strip lash should just peel off without damaging your lashes, but the hard stuff needs either to wear off so that the lashes fall out of their own accord or you need remover. here

If you do buy remover, you need to be very very very careful with it - if you get it in your eye, it can damage it. I use 2 cotton buds, one with remover on and one clean, and gently dap/wipe the lash bulb with the one with remover on over the top of the lashes and hold the clean one under the lashes (eyes closed obviously) to stop it going into the eye itself. Hope that makes sense...

Baby oil can help a bit, but if you pick out weekend lashes then you will pick your own lashes out at the same time.

You can get a special lash remover - [[

Their black glue is really good too
