“I saw the before/after pics... and they were impressive. However, I did not believe I would be able to successfully apply the tiny little strips. I'm the woman who never quite gets eyeliner right, false eyelashes (forget it!), and although I've been wearing contacts for YEARS, I still struggle putting them in now and again. To my surprise, it was easy-peasy!! I opened the little case of "Lids By Design" strips, took out the little tweezer applicator, peeled the little strip, and placed it on my eyelid. OMG, perfect! Every time! I'm officially a FAN!”
“I'd highly recommend the eye contours. Didnt realize such a product existed until I stumbled upon their ad. Love them. Easy to apply, stays on well, comfortable and no irritation. After practicing a couple times, I'm able to quickly apply now.”
Hello Carmen,
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 :)
