Hey,
Definitely NOT just you! The first 3 clients I used Eyelash Emporium glue on noticed the different between the previous glue I had been using. ALL complained of stinging...not only at the end, but even during the proceedure. These were not people new to extensions, nor did I use a different proceedure from any other time I had done their lashes.
It also made two people have watery eyes during the proceedure. In one case it was so bad I had to abandon the proceedure.
I was so concerned I asked a collegue if she would try the glue. She allowed me to apply a set of lashes using this glue. She said it was VERY stingy both during and after the proceedure. Also, she had to remove the lashes after less than a week because every time she washed her face or showered her eyes were stinging again.
I told the Eyelash Emporium folk about this at a beauty show. They seemed not to care. Stated how many of 1000's of bottles they had sold and stated that I was the ONLY person that had noted a problem with stinging. They were far more concerned with getting more clients to use the glue than listening to me. They promised to get back to me after the show to discuss the problem further. The did NOT follow up my complaint!
Stince speaking with them at the show one of the people developed a weird rash and swelling on her eyelid and had to have her lash extensions removed.
I will NEVER use this glue again!
