“I have ptosis of my right eyelid so that eye appears droopy. I bought the assortment pack and tried all the different sizes on my right eyelid but none of them made any difference. I did find that when I used one of the 6mm or 7mm strips on my left eyelid, it did help make my left eye look more like my right. After some trial and error, I figured out how best to place the strips; but I find that the small corner where I lift the strip from the clear plastic sheet ends up bending that small corner and no amount of pressing and holding makes the corner blend in with my lid like the rest of the strip.”
Hello Mariel,
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 Extended Wear Adhesive, which was designed to provide extra hold for the LIDS BY DESIGN Cosmetic Strips.
“When applied properly, they look great. I'm still struggling with the application. First the correct location so there is no visible line across the lid, and second once peeling them off the plastic, the end where the tweezer touches them never really sits completely flat. It just rarely looks as invisible as is shown in the pictures. There must be a learning curve, I'm not giving up yet”
Hello Gail,
Placement takes practice, like anything new. Look at our tutorials on proper placement online at ContoursRx.com or our YouTube channel "Contours Rx".
“The instructions are easy to follow and I didn’t find them as hard to put on as I had expected. I’m still trying out the different sizes, but these are great! They give me a lid which makes my eyes look more open and they are comfortable to wear all day!”
“I’ve tried other lids, and … eh! I LOVE LOVE LOVE my LIDS BY DESIGN. Like a falling star brilliant Brit brought us the best . Actually, I know she worked her butt off for this, lol. Seriously, Her products are amazing. Love you girl and thank you.”
