“I’ve struggled with my hooded eyes since I was in high school. I’m in my early twenties and it’s difficult to create makeup looks for my eye shape that actually show and look nice. I’ve tried every other version of this product but they either looked awful, wouldn’t stay on my eyes, or were so uncomfortable. I was on the fence about purchasing these because of the price but I’m so glad a did! I will definitely be purchasing again!”
“I had really high hopes for these strips. Yes, they lifted the lids but even with pressing down the strips so they'd be clear, you could still see the "smoothness" of them. Obvious difference in my eye lids to the strip. Couldn't wear eye makeup AT. ALL. (Even with the Eye Pencil.) Unfortunately I can't return them for a refund. I will not be ordering any more and will not recommend them to any one. Really sad.”
Hello Linda,
Thank you for contacting us directly.
I would be happy to help you navigate the application process, as I know it can take some time.
You want to make sure that your eyelid is clean and free of any oils or lotions before starting the application process.
We provide a starter tool to use as tweezer to be able to lift the strip from the plastic, however, if you find that you are not successful in grabbing the strip without damaging it, and have not purchased our needle nose tweezers, we recommend using a pair of clean tweezers that you have at home to be able to lift the edge end of the strip carefully. Please do not lift the strip with your fingers, as our hands have oils on them. When lifting the strip from the plastic, please make sure you are not pulling, but rather gently lifting.
Once you identify the right placement for the strip (the fold of the eyelid where the skin is sagging) you will want to lift the eye, and place the strip over that fold.
After the strip is placed, please make sure to use the "press and hold" technique, rather than swiping across. This will ensure that the strip is bonded and translucent.
If you decide that you would like to wear eyeshadow, you are welcome to do so once the strip is properly placed, however, we recommend using non-mineral oil based primer on top of the strip before applying your eyeshadow to ensure that the eyeshadow applies to the strip.
I will also include our youtube video on the application process :)

For best results, the correcting strips should apply to the bare skin before any makeup, oils, or moisturizers. We recommend using our Eyelid Prep Pads to prepare the skin for LIDS BY DESIGN. We also recommend using the COLORSET All-In-One Pencil over the eyelids and strip to create one smooth surface before applying your makeup.
Please let us know if you have any further questions.
We are sorry to hear you were not satisfied with your purchase.
Thank you for giving our products a try!
Kind regards,
Hello Chris,
I would be happy to share some tutorials of the application process from our YouTube channel with you!:)
