How to Apply Whip Lashes: The Ultimate Beginner’s Guide
If you love the look of lashes but hate the glue, the mess, or the lash appointments, pre-glued lashes are about to become your new obsession. Whip Lashes are designed for busy women who want to look put-together in seconds — no lash tech required.
Whether you’re using GLOW for a soft everyday look or ICON for a fuller vibe, this guide will walk you through exactly how to apply our pre-glued lashes with confidence.
Why Choose Pre-Glued Lashes?
Pre-glued lashes are perfect for anyone who wants:
-
Fast, fuss-free application
-
Lashes that last for days
-
A natural, lightweight feel
-
A beginner-friendly option that actually works
Whip Lashes are pre-glued, cluster-style lashes that you place under your natural lash line for a seamless, barely-there finish.
Step 1 — Start With Clean, Oil-Free Lashes
The adhesive on pre-glued lashes works best on clean, dry natural lashes.
Before applying:
-
Remove mascara
-
Avoid oil-based makeup removers
-
Pat your lash line completely dry
Tip: If you have oily lids, dust a little translucent powder on your lids to help the lashes grip better.
Step 2 — Choose Your Lash Cluster
Whip Lashes come in two styles:
GLOW — soft, natural, everyday
Perfect for work, school runs, brunch, or when you want that “I woke up cute” energy.
ICON — fuller, bolder, more dramatic
Ideal for nights out, events, or whenever you want your eyes to pop.
Pick your cluster, starting with the ones for your outer corner.
Step 3 — Lift the Lash From the Tray
Use tweezers to gently slide under the lash and lift the cluster out avoiding the glue.
Avoid pulling on the lash fibres individually — this keeps them fluffy and perfect.
Step 4 — Apply the Lash Under Your Natural Lash Line
This is the secret to that seamless, extension-style look.
-
Look slightly up into a mirror
-
Gently lift your eyelid
-
Place the lash under your natural lashes, right along the waterline
-
Once attached, squeeze your lash and the cluster together at the base to connect securely.
Pre-glued lashes grip instantly — no drying time needed.
Step 5 — Fill In Across the Lash Line
Work from outer to inner corner, placing 3–5 clusters depending on your desired look.
Mix and match to customise your style depending on your eye shape.
Golden rules for all eye shapes
-
Keep shorter clusters on the inner corner, longer toward the outer.
-
Don’t drag the wing too far down – that’s what makes eyes look droopy.
-
Tiny gaps between clusters are fine. Clumped = heavy, spaced = airy and luxe.

Step 6 — Seal all the Lashes Together
After all clusters are applied:
-
Press your natural lashes and Whip Lashes together with your fingers or applicator
-
This blends everything into one seamless, natural lash line
This simple step makes a huge difference.
How Long Do Whip Lashes Last?
With proper care, Whip Lashes can last up to 10 days.
Make them last longer by:
-
Avoiding oils
-
Not rubbing your eyes especially when lashes are wet
-
Sleeping on your side or back
-
Not getting them wet for the first 12 hours.
They’re designed to stay put through school runs, workouts, and everything in between.
Removal Is Quick and Gentle
To remove Whip Lashes safely:
-
Hold a warm, damp cotton pad over your eye
-
Let it soften the adhesive
-
Slide the lashes off gently
No pulling. No damage. No drama.
Final Tips for Perfect Pre-Glued Lash Application
-
Leave a gap at the very inner corner for comfort

Start with GLOW if you’re a complete beginner, and more forgiving.
