How to Remove Lashify Lashes with Coconut Oil: A Safe & Gentle Method

Removing your Lashify lashes properly is key to keeping both your natural lashes and your Lashify lashes in great condition for multiple uses. While there are several removal methods, using coconut oil has become a favorite among Lashify users because it's natural, gentle, and highly effective at breaking down the adhesive without harsh chemicals.

In this guide, we'll walk you through the step-by-step process of removing your Lashify lashes with coconut oil, plus share tips on how to clean and store them afterward. Whether you're new to Lashify or a seasoned pro, this method will help you maintain your lash investment.

Why Coconut Oil Works for Lashify Lash Removal

Coconut oil is rich in fatty acids that help dissolve the water-resistant adhesive used in Lashify lashes. Unlike oil-based removers that can be harsh, coconut oil is moisturizing and safe for the delicate eye area. It effectively loosens the bond between the lash and your natural lashes without pulling or tugging, reducing the risk of lash damage.

Another advantage is that coconut oil is a natural ingredient you probably already have in your home. It's affordable, multipurpose, and free from synthetic fragrances or preservatives that might irritate sensitive eyes. Plus, it leaves your natural lashes feeling conditioned after removal.

• Gentle on natural lashes and skin
• Effective at dissolving Lashify adhesive
• Naturally moisturizing and soothing

What You'll Need for Coconut Oil Removal

Before you start, gather a few simple items: a small bowl of coconut oil (fractionated or solid, but warm it slightly if solid), a clean spoolie or mascara wand, a soft microfiber cloth or cotton pad, and your Lashify lashes. You may also want a gentle cleanser like the Lashify Beauty Bag essentials or a mild soap to clean the lashes afterward.

If you have the Lashify Bunny Ears Headband, it can help keep your hair away from your face during the process. While not essential, it's a nice accessory to have for a comfortable removal routine.

• Coconut oil (fractionated or solid, slightly warmed)
• Clean spoolie or mascara wand
• Soft cloth or cotton pad
• Optional: Lashify Bunny Ears Headband

Step-by-Step: Remove Lashify Lashes with Coconut Oil

Start by washing your hands thoroughly to avoid transferring dirt to your eyes. Dip a clean spoolie or your fingertip into the coconut oil and gently apply it along the lash line where the Lashify lash meets your natural lashes. Be careful not to get oil into your eyes. Let the oil sit for 30–60 seconds to allow it to penetrate the adhesive.

After waiting, use the spoolie to gently brush the Lashify lash from the outer corner inward. The lash should start to lift easily. If it doesn't, apply a bit more coconut oil and wait another 30 seconds. Never pull or force the lash off, as this can damage your natural lashes. Once the lash is removed, gently wipe away any excess oil and adhesive residue with a soft cloth.

Repeat the process for the other eye. After removal, you can clean your Lashify lashes with a mild cleanser or a product like WATER POOF® MAGIC DUST to remove any remaining oil and adhesive. Let them air dry completely before storing.

• Apply coconut oil along the lash line and wait 30–60 seconds
• Gently brush the lash from outer corner inward
• Avoid pulling; reapply oil if needed
• Clean lashes with mild cleanser or WATER POOF® MAGIC DUST

Tips for Reusing Your Lashify Lashes After Coconut Oil Removal

Coconut oil removal is one of the gentlest methods, which helps preserve the lash band for multiple wears. After removal, clean the lashes thoroughly to remove all oil and adhesive. You can use a small amount of gentle soap and water or a dedicated lash cleanser. Avoid rubbing the lashes; instead, gently wipe them with your fingers.

Once clean, place the lashes back on the original tray or in a clean container. Store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. With proper care, your Lashify lashes can be reused several times, making them a cost-effective and sustainable choice for beautiful lashes.

• Clean lashes thoroughly after removal
• Store in original tray or clean container
• Avoid sunlight and moisture
