1. When applying eyelash extensions, the ideal room temperature should be between 22c - 23c

2. The ultimate and best working humidity environment 50-55%.

3. Do not rely on the local humidity, room temperature and humidity can be very different from one room to another - A basement room may be very different to a well ventilated cool room in the same building

4. The higher the humidity the faster the adhesive cures so a slower type is recommended

5. The lower the humidity the slower the adhesive cures so a faster type is recommended

To maximize optimum strength of the application monitor your humidity levels by using a hygrometer, which measures the humidity/moisture in your treatment room, available from most pharmacy.

It is highly recommended for best results when using the adhesive that a plastic dappen dish is used especially in low humidity conditions, and to use a glass Lash tinting dish in high humidity conditions It is not recommended that the lash artist uses Jade or glass stones, flat surfaces to dispense adhesive onto as this will dry more quickly and also could become contaminated by dust particles in the air or from heat (hair dryers) - air con - etc. Some technicians will also apply a strip of tape onto the Jade stone or glass stone to keep the stones clean. They will then dispense the adhesive onto the tape. This is NOT advised as the tape will absorb elements from the adhesive and will result in poor application and dry the exposed adhesive too quickly
If stored below 18C nothing would really happen to the elements other than the adhesive would take a while to set once opened for usage until it reached normal room temperature.
If stored above and unopened - probably not too much would happen other than the adhesive may be a bit thicker upon opening and could seem stringy, but should go back to normal fairly soon once reaching normal room temperature

Bottle sealed or unsealed:
Our bottles generally do not come sealed unless specifically specified and going through different ranges of temperatures due to long distance travel. Sealed bottles are usually used for many adhesive types that are for industrial based adhesives and not designed for the lash/brow industry. This is a legal requirement for these type of glues for transportation purpose.
Our bottles do not require a sealed cap as they are more stable and designed with a small bobble inside the cap that will automatically seal each time the cap is put on.
A sealed cap will have quite a large amount of sealed plastic so the technician will have to cut or pierce, which can lead to unnecessary air entering the nozzle causing premature polymerization of the adhesive, reducing the adhesion factor. The cut down nozzle opening will also be to large for the cap bobble to fit in and air will enter.
A small pin can be applied to the nozzle to ensure it is sealed, however, each time the pin is pulled the nozzle will suck in air and this will also lead to reduced shelf life and possible reduced adhesion

Bottle opening:
For a new bottle or if being transported around for mobile technicians, it is recommended that after shaking with the lid/cap on tap the bottom of the bottle to release any trapped adhesive in the nozzle, remove the cap and should there be any excess adhesive in the nozzle squeeze gently the side or belly of the bottle to burp it and release the excess.
A drop of adhesive should always be squeezed out and discarded as this may have been sitting in the nozzle and lost or become aged. ‘ Always use a fresh drop from the belly of the bottle and not what has been left in the nozzle.
Bottle cleaning
If spillage has occurred or before closing the cap, use a fibre free wet wipe and close the cap tightly ‘ store in a cool dark place away from direct heat, sunny positions or lamp light

Humidity factor for once opened
Once a cap has been removed the 9 month shelf life starts to decrease
If unopened a NEW UNOPENED bottle may be kept in a refridgerator

Once opened it must be kept in a cool dark place away from direct heat, sunny positions or lamp heat Below 40% - This will result in slow curing and may result in a poor application due to setting level. Above 70% - This will create a shock reaction and could result in adhesive becoming brittle, which means that durability is lessened.
Best results the humidity level should be between 40% and 70%
Perfect results - 60%
