How do you care for false lashes to keep them re-usable?

I want to buy some MAC ones, but they are more expensive, so I want to use them continually. I normally add coats of mascara to them once applied.....???How do you care for false lashes to keep them re-usable?
You should be careful not to rub your eyes while wearing the eyelashes. When your done wearing them, take them off carefully by the lash. Use adhesive from sephora, it's really good! When you take the eyelashes off, swish the bottoms in rubbing alcohol, to take off the glue, and then in water, to take off the rubbing alcohol.How do you care for false lashes to keep them re-usable?
You can just put them back in the case after use. I buy the cheaper ones but even they last me around 6 uses. I just take them off immediately when I'm done (never sleep in them). As for the mascara, use a light one just to perk the lashes a little, buy the lashes a little longer so that you will get more use instead of having to cake on mascara.
If you want to reuse the lashes then I don't recommend applying mascara on them. Just curl your lashes before and then apply the falsies. Use a comb to brush through and blend the lashes.





To remove gently pull from the outer corner towards the inner. If it is a little hard to take off don't pull...use a q-tip dipped in some eye makeup remover and hold it at the corners to loosen the glue.





Once you've removed the lashes clean the glue off. You can just use your fingers and lightly pull at the glue on the base and it should easily come off. Put it back in it's original package to retain the shape. You should be able to use them 5-6 times depending.





MAC and Shu Uemura make great lashes but they are expensive. You can buy a lot of cheaper lashes that will do the trick too. Check out these sites....
