I get eyelashes extensions applied regularly and hate that awkward stage when new ones are needed and the old are hanging, so bought this product to remove them as I was pulling them out and by own lashes were becoming nonexistent. I read the reviews about stinging etc, so when I apply i put cotton wool under tge lashes to guard my eyes. I then use a lash brush to apply, no stinging and within minutes I can brush out the lashes. I think this product is great and definitely worth the money as it will stretch for ages. Works great, no strong smell and definitely does the job.
