Current Lash Routine, Favorites and Comparison with Application Tips for Best Longevity

[@TheContouredChemist]

Have you tried this type of system yet?

[@Nancyd2736]

My favorite are Dawns, they are the most natural and look the best on me ❤️

[@T.Hollomio]

Just started Lilac St. two weeks ago. I've never been a fake lash person because I just couldn't get them to look right. I literally learned to do these in half an hour. And they look amazing. The second round took me about 15 minutes. The longest part of it to me is cleaning the lashes for reuse. I'm so thrilled about taking the leap because I was so sick of mascara. The clumping, the fallout, needing to do it every day, and still never had great lashes. Now I do every day with one application.

Newby here. Lilac Street by far the easiest and most comfortable. When I saw the price of Lashify compared to Lilac Street I was like nope. Can’t imagine why they are so pricey when LS are lovely. ✌🏻

[@micheleclark59]

Especially the Lashes… you can get 3 different sets from Lilac St for less than 4 Lashify… they look great, when I’m wealthier!

[@hoodieninja70]

Try French Lace. They are my favorite, after volume. I had extensions for 8 years and loved them, but didn't love the cost. About a year ago, I heard about Lashify and Lilac St so I bought both so I could compare. Personally, I don't like Lashify lashes at all. But I do like their glue, sealer, and tweezers. I am opposite of you in that I use the Lilac St tweezers to apply and the Lashify tweezers (with wandoms) to fuse. My favorite glue is the Lashify Whisper Light Dual-Sided. I put the black glue on my lashes and the white on the spines of the segments. All the other glues just seem too gloopy and I get way too much on my lashes. I will try using a spooly to remove extra (good tip!). I prefer the Lashify Glass for sealing due to the macro tip. I also love their precision lash comb and use the pointed tip to unstick lashes that tend to go in wonky directions. For removing, I skip both brands of remover and just soak a cotton pad in micellar water and hold on my eye for about a minute and then they all just fall off. When I'm applying, I have a magnifying mirror mounted on my bathroom wall. I can get a full week with my lashes if I do like you and avoid washing my face in the shower or hot, steamy water. But I have to be honest, I prefer the hot showers and water on my face, so I'm happy to apply my lashes twice a week. I also love sleeping on my side for part of the night, but I try to avoid letting my lashes touch the pillow (especially since I use a flannel pillow case).

I’ve been binge watching ur tutorials because I’m going to start doing my own lashes. Will you please show your eyelash storage? What type of storage bag/ case do you keep all your lash accessories? What eyelash essentials do you take when you travel and what do you store in? What do you wash your face with to prevent your lashes from falling? My cleanser is oil based so I’m thinking that maybe that’s not such an idea. Thank you 🌸🌸🌸🌸

[@PatriciaGodboutArt]

What a handsome son, beautiful cat, lovely lashes - what more could a girl want? Good on you woman!

[@ashleighhart5076]

I haven’t tried Lilac St, I use Lashify and reuse those lashes. I wear my lashes while working out in hot saunas as Hotworx (few times a week). I always make sure to air dry the lashes if they get wet - key is DO NOT TOUCH when wet! 😝

[@KathyAWSiculan]

I am super glad I watched this. I've been using Lilac St for a little while now and really wasn't getting full longevity or making them look as good as I wanted. I was letting them adhere to the waterline. Going to definitely try looking down into a mirror as well. My coloring now looks strange with the black lashes so I'm stuck with the brown Originals and possibly the Dawns. On you, my favorite looks are the mix, the Hollywoods and most of all, the Prisms. I did try the French Lace and they are also very pretty but too much on me. Bet they would look great on you.

[@loriphilbin240]

Hey Sarah, another great and helpful video as always. 🥰

[@debdonnell783]

Thank you for this great Tute! I applied my Lilac Street lashes right along with you! 💞💞

[@jtyrrell]

I’ve become obsessed with lilac st. They do make the pro glue in the white/clear too. I go back and forth on which pro glue I like better. I have the black regular glue and not as much of a fan but lilac st is my first attempt at falsies! 😆

[@mauritaedwards8917]

I switched over to lilac street one year ago. I actually enjoy the subscription plan❤❤❤

[@beshflorida1048]

Thank you for this helpful video. I am about to start doing my own lashes after years of having lash extensions at a salon and you made the process seem less intimidating.

[@feliciasmith8890]

I've been wearing Extreme lash extensions for over 13+ years and loved them, but I too have sensitive eyes and have struggled with eye dermatitis, so after your videos I've finally decided to take them off! Wish me luck!!! 😬 Thank you for the video and all of your recommendations! --I also love your Seint videos!

[@TheContouredChemist]

Good luck!!!!🤞🏻

[@katiegrotheer2918]

Love your videos and have learned so much! Have you tried flutterhabit lashes? I’m loving them right now.

[@juanellwallwin3920]

Thank you, Sarah. I have been wearing Lashify, for 4 years after watching one of your videos and loved them. However, they have changed their subscription parameters and it left me disheartened. I have tried Lilac St lashes and love them. I will be canceling my Lashify subscription today.

[@preciouslyngotengco116]

Super helpful videos! I have sparse lashes specially in the inner and outer corners and your videos are lifesaver! Quick question, do take breaks from your lashes?

[@Britvalarie]

Great video! Your eyelashes look beautiful! You've made me want to try 🙂 Thanks so much from the UK!

[@micheleclark59]

The tool has many uses! I use the pinching affect to remove pieces of tried clue! I have Several Tools ❤

[@ginnyusatouche]

I like a lash with curl (like D). I can't find any reference on Lilac referencing curl so I'm not sure which ones to buy. A lash with curl doesn't brush up against my glasses.

[@shawndelking]

This was sooo helpful. ☺️ thank you

[@karinferguson6765]

Dang! The price for the Sleep and Glow pillow is crazy!😳

[@susanyakus7364]

I hated the Sleep and Glow pillow. Way too hard and expensive. I am a side sleeper and I just use the Blissy silk pillow cases. No problems with side sleeping and lashes coming off.

[@Manateelover25]

Just found your vidoes and going to try your method with my Lilac lashes. I have a question though...how do you remove your eye makeup without messing up the lashes? Ugh i cant figure it out .

[@TheContouredChemist]

If you look at my Lashes playlist, I have a video showing how I remove my makeup while wearing them!

[@debdonnell783]

I’ve used Lashify and Lilics…my issue is washing my hair and not getting water in my eyes.

[@LindsayLangman]

Where did you get your purple shirt from your wearing in the beginning of the vid? Super cute!!

[@babiluv28]

Hi, what was the acrylate compound that you were allergic to in the Lashify bonds? I had an allergic reaction to lash extensions and I’m thinking of giving Lashify a try but I’m worried I’ll have an allergic reaction…

[@michelestephenson6944]

Loved your video! i started Lilac St a few weeks ago & love them so far. My problem is my outer corners are just as sparse as my inner corners. So if i come up too far on the outer das we’ll as the inner they look funny. Any suggestions on the outer corners??

[@TheContouredChemist]

I also don't go all the way to the outer corners.... I'd leave a millimeter or two and trust me no one looks at it as closely as you do! You can try shorter and more wispy styles in that outer corner too to see if that helps. The thicker and more volume styles tend to have a thicker spine and can be more obvious. Also play with different angles when adhering the outer lash, which might give it more to adhere to...it can take some trial and error!

[@mrspeggylichi]

❤Love your mirror!! Where is it from?

[@micheleclark59]

Omg, thousands of Lashes! 😮

[@micheleclark59]

Lilac St can remove lashes from the box by gently pressing your finger on the lash and pull it towards you. I never use tools to remove lashes from packaging

[@jareed2451]

Have you tried the clear falscara bond & seal ?

[@TheContouredChemist]

Yep I use it all the time and it works great!

[@jareed2451]

Awesome thank you so much I just purchased my first Lashify kit so I’m just trying to prepare myself just in case i get a allergic reaction to the bond so i can make a easy switch over thank you again for the reply back :)@@TheContouredChemist

[@AreYouKittenMeRtNow]

@@jareed2451I had the same question so thanks for asking! Hope the lashes work great for you, mine are coming next week wish me luck haha 😅

[@ginnyusatouche]

Great info...Lilac St lashes considerably more expensive than the Amazon brand in your last video. Lilac St $10 for one pair, one size. Amazon brand $10 for 72 lashes. Am I missing something?

[@TheContouredChemist]

There's just a very limited selection of styles on the Amazon lashes and although they are very affordable they are also heavier and can be more irritating if you have sensitive eyes like I do.

[@jennmcpherson476]

Do you put eye shadow and liner on after applying the lashes?

[@clynn8708]

So helpful

[@briennearroyo1932]

Oh and they’re having a sale right now 😊

[@ladonnamontalto917]

Super random but could you please link your earrings? They are perfect for my daughter for Christmas

[@TheContouredChemist]

Of course! It’s these: rstyle.me/+DwGqg0_VqHG2fUTAYoznmA and these: rstyle.me/+fSMAsgTb0HkYdji6G60MRg

[@jenjenmm]

I know this might be a dumb question but im just getting started. How do you take eye makeup (liner, shadow) off wearing the exttensions (lashify, kiss, lilac st., etc)?

[@TheContouredChemist]

Not a dumb question! I have a video showing skincare around the lashes in my Lashes playlist 👍🏻

[@denisevermeulen4984]

Use those daily pill containers. It helps

[@lclude9632]

I noticed you only use the black glue, lashify uses both the black and white/clear glue to set lashes. Do you find you don’t need to use both that the lashes hold just as well only using the one black glue?

[@TheContouredChemist]

So I've tested and shared a lot of their techniques of using multiple bonds in other videos if you look at my Lashes playlist, but I can't use Lashify's bonds anymore since developing an allergy to them. I used Lilac St.'s pro glue only and easily get a full weeks wear or more. But even when I wore Lashify's I only needed one and could still get that longevity. It has more to do with placement and application than the type of bond in my opinion after testing them all for years.

[@karinferguson6765]

Great info! I am going to try them this week….. they have been sitting in my makeup bag.

[@Det_313]

27:25 Application

[@heatherkellman9973]

I think I'm having a reaction to the lash glue, my lids are red and tender and my eyes are puffy, can you share with me your symtoms? I just order lilac st glue to see if my eyes do better with it.

[@TheContouredChemist]

Yep, red, swollen and irritated and would eventually start peeling ☹️

[@heatherkellman9973]

I can't thank you enough I just use the lilac street glue and for the first time in weeks my eyes don't hurt. Geez now what do I do with all this lashify glue?? @@TheContouredChemist

[@AbuSayedBelal-zi5je]

Can't imagine why they are so pricey when LS are lovely.

[@wellsfargoonline9365]

Where do you get covers for lilac street wand?

[@TheContouredChemist]

I think they can be purchased separately 👍

[@andreafreytes894]

I love this only thing is you can’t go under water when swimming. 😩 Is there anyone that swims in them without a problem?

[@TheContouredChemist]

I’ve gone swimming underwater on vacation and they still lasted until I got home 👍🏻 a waterproofing topcoat like Glass from Lashify will help! But I wasn’t even using that one- a good strong application is always key.

[@elainek7157]

Have you tried NoonLash yet?

[@TheContouredChemist]

Never heard of them! I’ll have to check them out!

[@elainek7157]

I think you'll like their Happy Hour lashes 🙂

[@micheleclark59]

Uh throw those old ones out! Should be soaking in 91% alcohol and cleaned after a week! Lilac street LAST when taken care of

[@heatherkellman9973]

Can you use glass with lilac

[@TheContouredChemist]

Yep!

[@heatherkellman9973]

cool do you like one better than the other? Worth buying the lilac one. Great video, love watch you!! BTW is that a rag doll, he looks like mine. I have two and a golden retriever!@@TheContouredChemist

[@TheContouredChemist]

@@heatherkellman9973 I only use the Lilac St one now! 👍🏻 Yep we have 2 Ragdolls now 🤪

[@deborahvazquez5235]

Is there anything that you can actually use to cleanse your lashes with that will not disrupt the glue bond?

[@TheContouredChemist]

Yes, I use the Lash Bath kit from Lilac St.

[@micheleclark59]

Placement on the waterline interferes with natural lash growth … 😮

[@judymastrullo4348]

Personally that is way too much to do for fake lashes. I use serums for my lashes and brows twice a day. Then i use loreal white primer on my top lashes before mascara. It works just fine for me. Just saying. To each his own, i guess.. 🤷‍♀️
