There are times when only a solution will help, in other cases it will be enough just to wet the eyelashes for half an hour.
How to remove eyelash extensions with a debonder?
First, you need to be sure that it's time to use the debonder and remove your eyelashes:
- After three weeks, it is necessary to make a correction. If you refuse to do this procedure, then buy a debonder.
- The eyelashes fall off.

- If you have been wearing eyelash extensions for a long time. In this case, your eyes and natural eyelashes need proper rest.
Also, special attention should be paid to the choice of a debonder when buying. Whatever make a mistake and purchase a quality product, follow the rules below:
- If possible, ask the master who did the extension. He will tell you the brand of glue, as a result, you can purchase a debonder of the same company. Then the deletion process will be faster and more pleasant.
- When buying, read the composition of the product. If it is based on acetone, then do not buy. Such funds negatively affect the mucous membrane of the eye, they are often harmful and aggressive. If the composition contains oils, then the product is of high quality, since they protect the eyelashes from solvents and nourish with useful components.
- The smell of a debonder should not be pungent. If it is too sharp, it cannot be purchased. Think about how your eyes will react.
- There are different consistencies of means for removing extended eyelashes: liquid, gel, in the form of a cream or paste. Only competent masters often remove eyelashes with a liquid solution. It is better not to use it at home, because if it gets into the eyes, it can seriously damage the cornea. A gel base is more suitable. It gets into the eyes extremely rarely, dissolves glue well. In this regard, cream or paste are no different either.
- When buying, pay attention to the hypoallergenicity of the product. If no such mark is found, it is not worth spending the money.
- You can ask the master where he purchases such funds, or find special stores on your own. The main thing is that he has proper certificates. A high-quality debonder will not be cheap, and in this case it is not worth saving.
If you are in doubt whether you can do the removal yourself, contact a specialist better to avoid future vision problems, as well as not to harm natural eyelashes. If you are confident in yourself, you will need auxiliary products: protective cosmetic tape, a product with which you remove makeup, moisturizing milk, cotton pads and sticks, a special product for eyelashes (preferably fat-free), a mirror and, of course, debonder. If you have everything ready, we proceed to the procedure for removing eyelash extensions:
