Understand Eyelash Glue Allergy Symptoms

• Redness and Irritation: If you notice redness, swelling or irritation around your eyelids or eyes after attaching false eyelashes with glue, this could be an indication of an allergy to the glue.

<li><i>Itching</i>: An intense itching sensation around your eyelids or eyes after applying false eyelashes with glue could be another sign. Make sure this itching is not due to the irritation from the false eyelashes themselves but specifically from the glue.</li>

<li><i>Tearing</i>: Excessive tearing or watery eyes could be another significant symptom of an allergic reaction to eyelash glue.</li>

<li><i>Discharge</i>: Unusual or increased discharge from your eyes after using eyelash glue could signal an allergic reaction.</li>

Note the Immediate Eyelash Glue After-Effects

• Timing: Allergic reactions usually occur soon after the eyelash glue comes in contact with your skin. If these symptoms occur within a few hours of applying the eyelashes, this could indicate an allergy.

<li><i>Persistence</i>: If the symptoms persist even after the removal of the eyelashes, this could further suggest an allergic reaction to the eyelash glue.</li>

Confirm Your Suspicions with a Patch Test

In case of strong suspicions of an eyelash glue allergy, perform a patch test. Apply a small amount of the glue on another part of your skin, such as the inside of your forearm. Wait for 24 hours. If the skin develops redness, swelling, itching, or any other allergic symptom, you can confirm your allergy to eyelash glue.
