Why do my false lashes hurt after a few hours?

It's usually the band. A stiff band will press into the lid as the glue sets. The fix is a more flexible band and a shorter wait time before applying.

Are false lashes supposed to feel heavy?

No. If they feel heavy, the band or material is too thick. Lightweight lashes should feel barely there.

How do I know if I'm allergic to lash glue?

Allergic reactions include itching, redness, swelling, or blisters near the eye. If any of these happen, stop use and see a doctor.
