Sometimes it is quite easy. perhaps half the time. however the rest of the time it’s not, as well as I’ll end up with eyelash glue around my lids.

I waited up until the glue was totally dry. then I utilized the comb to carefully scrape the glue off my lids, all the while, doing my finest to keep from messing up the makeup underneath.
