Step two
Grab your castor oil and to make things easier, pour a small amount into a clean, separate container. This will prevent contamination as well.
Step three
Dip your eyelash brush or earbud in castor oil and coat your lashes like you would if you were applying mascara.
Be very gentle and apply small amounts at a time as you saturate your lashes. Also, be careful not to poke your eyes.
Step four
After coating your lashes, let the castor oil sit for five to ten minutes. This will give enough time for the oil to break down the glue.
As you wait, you can gently brush the lashes to help loosen up the glue.
Step five
Once the oil has lifted the glue, get your cotton pad, close your eyes and loosen the lashes gently. If there are some that aren't coming off easily, you can repeat the coating process and then gently remove them with the cotton pad.
Step six
Once everything is out, use a fresh cotton pad to remove any excess oil on your eyelids and lashes. Then finally, wash your face or use a gentle cleaner to remove any oil that is left and you're all done.
Tip: If you have strip lashes, you can apply castor oil on the top line where glue has been applied. Give it a few minutes then use your fingers to gently remove the strip from the outer corner. As you remove it, be careful to only grab the false lash and not your natural eyelashes.
