“Within an hour or 2 of application, the lid strip started to lift and no longer stick and made my eyelid appear crooked while half of it was being held by the strip and half was not. I would not purchase again.”
Hello,
Remember, it is very important that you press and hold the strip to the eye, especially the corners, for several seconds to ensure a strong bond. If the corners are still lifting, try gently exfoliating the eyelid as the strip is likely sticking to dead skin and therefore lifting without a good bond. We recommend using our Eyelid Prep Pads to prepare the skin for LIDS BY DESIGN as it gently exfoliates and removes dirt from the eyelid.
“The ones I received didn't have enough sticky on the back and they are constantly coming loose on one end. I have done everything I can to make sure the area is clean but they still won't stay stuck to my eyelid.”
Hello,
Ensure that your skin is clean and dry, free of any oils, makeups, or moisturizers. We recommend using our Eyelid Prep Pads to prepare the skin for LIDS BY DESIGN, as edges sticking to dead skin or dirt will lift. Additionally, it's important not to touch the strips with your fingers or thick tweezers, as this will interfere with the delicate adhesive and they will no longer be transparent or stick! We recommend using our Stainless Steel Tweezers to peel and place LIDS BY DESIGN onto the eyelids.
“I was hopeful that these strips would life my droopy eyelid. I tried all the sizes and although they do life the droopy part, it makes a flat section on my eyelid that looks awkward and feels uncomfortable. Perhaps I just haven't placed it correctly yet (I'll keep trying) but I would not wear these in public at this point.
I can say that the strip color blends in nicely with my skin once it's placed.”
Hello Lisa,
Most likely, transparency is determined by how well LIDS BY DESIGN is bonded to the skin. You should always first try the press and hold technique to ensure LIDS BY DESIGN adhesive has blended in as much as possible to the skin tone!
