FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

How do I know my eye shape before buying lashes?

Look straight into a mirror. If the crease of your eyelid is hidden by the brow bone or skin above your eye, you have hooded eyes - go for half lashes or clusters. If you can see your crease clearly, your eyes are likely almond or round - most lash styles will work. If you barely have a crease, you have monolid eyes - clusters or thin-band strips with extra curl are your best bet.

Can I wear false lashes with glasses or contacts?

Yes on both. For glasses, choose a shorter lash style so the lashes don't brush against the lens - half lashes are perfect here. For contacts, apply lashes before inserting your contacts to avoid trapping glue particles, or wait until any glue fumes have fully dried. Stick to latex-free glue if your eyes are sensitive.

How many times can I reuse a strip lash?

A well-cared-for strip lash can give you 10 to 20 wears. After each wear, peel off the dried glue from the band and store the lashes back in their tray. If the band gets gunked up beyond cleaning or the lashes start losing their curl, retire them. Never share lashes - that's how you get styes.

Why do my lashes lift at the inner corner?

Two reasons. One: the lash band is too long - you didn't trim enough off the outer end, so the inner corner is being pushed up by excess band. Trim a tiny bit more and test again. Two: the inner corner is curved upward while the band is still flat - really work that band into a U-shape before gluing, and use a tiny bit of extra glue on the very inner tip.

Do I need to wear mascara with false lashes?

Yes - one light coat on your natural lashes before applying. This gives the false lash something to blend into and helps hide the band. Once the falsies are on, you can optionally give them a gentle squeeze with a lash curler for extra cohesion. Do not curl after applying mascara to falsies - wet mascara on false lashes can make them droop.

Frequently Asked Questions

Are PHANSTA LASHES safe for sensitive eyes?

Yes. PHANSTA LASHES are hypoallergenic, latex-free and fragrance-free, and they apply without liquid adhesive — the most common lash irritant. Patch-test any new product on your inner arm for 24 hours before first use.

How long do PHANSTA LASHES last per wear?

With clean, dry lids at application, PHANSTA LASHES hold comfortably through a full day — including workouts and light rain when you use the waterproof version. Hold depends mostly on clean, dry application.

Can you really reuse PHANSTA LASHES 30+ times?

Yes, when cared for properly. Gently peel them off by lifting from the outer corner, wipe the band with a damp swab after each wear, and store pairs curved-side-up in the tray. Never soak the band in remover.

Do PHANSTA LASHES damage natural lashes?

No — unlike tugging off dried glue, PHANSTA LASHES peel away cleanly without pulling natural hairs. Remove gently by lifting from the outer corner.

How much do PHANSTA LASHES cost?

PHANSTA LASHES are $59 per pair, reusable for 30+ wears — that works out to under $2 per wear over a full month of use.
