How to Apply Lash Grip Primer for Eyelash Extensions

Applying Lash Grip for Better Adhesion & Retention

Lash Grip (lash primer/pre-treatment) is designed to prepare the natural lash before application—use it before every full set and infill after cleansing and drying. Proper priming supports clean bonding, faster attachment and longer-lasting eyelash extension retention.

Why Lash Grip Matters

  • Balances moisture & pH on the natural lash for consistent adhesive performance.
  • Gently lifts the cuticle to create micro-texture so extensions grip and wrap more securely.
  • Removes trace oils & residue that can weaken the bond after cleansing.
  • Improves fan wrap & base neatness, helping reduce stickies and early shed.

When to Use

After you cleanse and fully dry the lashes, apply Lash Grip to both eyes, then proceed to isolation and lashing. Always follow with an adhesive suited to your room conditions (humidity/temperature) for the best results.

How to Apply (Step-by-Step)

  1. Choose your applicator: Use a lip wand or micro stick—whichever you prefer for precision.
  2. Dispense sparingly: Add one small drop of Lash Grip to the applicator. Less is more; do not soak the lashes.
  3. Prime from base to tip: Gently swipe from the lash base up to the tips, focusing on the lash line. Avoid skin and the waterline.
  4. Keep product out of eyes: If the applicator feels too wet, blot first. If any stinging occurs, stop and rinse thoroughly with clean water.
  5. Dry completely: Use a cool/low lash fan until the natural lashes are fully dry and fluffy, then begin application.

Pro Tips

  • In low humidity, priming helps reduce tacky, slow-curing adhesive and improves bond consistency.
  • In high humidity, use a light hand—over-priming can contribute to flash-cure. Pair with an adhesive calibrated for your room.
  • Always apply on clean, dry lashes after cleansing; avoid overuse to prevent over-saturation.
