I Just Found the Best Lash Glues on the Market to Ensure Long-Lasting Falsies
At Who What Wear, we're strong believers in the power of false lashes in a finished makeup look. The right pair of falsies or individual lashes can level up your confidence and your makeup game, whether it's a flirty, fanned-out look you're after or a barely there addition to your natural length. No matter what you choose, most false lashes (unless you go the magnetic-lash route) rely on one product to ensure their wearability: eyelash glue.
While it's challenging to sum up all the characteristics we value from a good adhesive for our lashes, we're usually on the lookout for products that provide a mess-free application, are quick-drying, have tacky consistency, and last as long as you need them to. Additionally, because falsies should be placed right against the lash line and come into contact with our natural lashes, we also look for eyelash glue formulated with a cocktail of nourishing ingredients to help protect what you already have.
Below, we're sharing our curated list of the top 10 eyelash glues on the market to make shopping for them a breeze—because we all know picking out the lash set of your dreams is the fun part!

1. Huda Beauty Sticky Tack Latex-Free Lash Glue
One of the biggest concerns I hear from fellow beauty enthusiasts while they're shopping for lash glue is that it's difficult to find formulas that are tacky. This latex-free lash glue offers the perfect amount of tackiness with easy and fast application. I never have to fiddle with or adjust my lashes after they've been placed when I use this glue.
Customer Review: "I am absolutely in love with this applicator, it’s very easy to use and you can’t do anything wrong. Perfect placement because of the precise brush and it’s clear which means you can’t mess up. Best for beginners and pros!"
Pros: The formula is easy to apply and remove in seconds
Cons: None
Specs: 0.25 oz tube with brush applicator
2. Velour Lash Adhesive
I've been a longtime fan of Velour Lashes, so it should be no surprise that I pair them with the brand's lash adhesive for the best results. (Although, they work well for all falsies I've worn.) This lash glue is designed specifically for multiple wears and is gentle enough to come off easily during lash removal without tugging on the skin or your natural lashes.
Customer Review: "One of the best and easiest to use for your lashes. I’ve been using them for about two years now and have never had any issues. Just apply them on and let them dry for 30 seconds before putting them on your lash line are usually add a little extra to the edges and they hold all day."
Pros: Features a latex-free formula (ideal for sensitive eyes)
Cons: Dries with slight residue
Specs: 0.50 oz tube with brush applicator
3. Lashify Whisper Light Flexible Bond
My favorite lash adhesive products on the market are usually ones with formulas that can be used by makeup novices and experts, and Lashify's Whisper Light Flexible Bond is one of the best. Its formula combines biotin and Micro-flex technology to create a protective cushion just underneath the lash line to save your roots while holding your falsies in place.
Customer Review: "I’ve been using Lashify’s lash system for four years now, they’re easy to apply, durable and made well, and they last about a week-week & a half when you get the technique down. This, however, is my first time getting this style of applicator for the whisper light—I usually use the double ended one. this one is sooo much easier to use and control where the bond is going. My lashes look better than ever!!"
Pros: Protects the roots of natural lashes from weight and tension
Cons: Noticeable fragrance upon application (fades in minutes)
Specs: 0.25 oz tube with micro-mascara applicator
4. Lily Lashes Clear Brush On Lash Adhesive
I've heard so many praises for this one's high-performing formula that I had to get my hands on it a few months back. What I like the most about this Lily Lashes glue is that in addition to being latex-free and non-irritating for my sensitive eyes, it dries completely clear and leaves no residue behind. My only qualm with it is that the formula takes 30 seconds to become tacky (a lifetime if you're always on the go like I am).
Customer Review: "This is my favorite short term/one-day wear lash glue. It dries completely clear and stays on the entire day. I have sensitive skin and this isn't the only glue that doesn't itch."
Pros: Uses as a quick-dry, non-irritating formula
Cons: Feels more slippery than tacky, reapplication may be needed for longevity
Specs: 0.16 oz tube with brush applicator
5. Duo Quick Set Lash Adhesive
Here's proof that a good lash adhesive doesn't have to break the bank. The Quick Set Lash Adhesive delivers long-lasting, waterproof hold that's durable, odorless, and mess-free. I'm a huge fan of this one's paddle-shaped applicator brush for easy and precise application. With over 60 years of history behind it, this lash glue will stick around for quite a while.
Customer Review: "I have also used this before getting in the lake or hot tub and unless I am fully submerged, the glue stays in place! But when I shower they will come off and not harm my real lashes like some others that have pulled them out! I have tried every brush on dark lash glue I can find and I like this one the best! It dry within minutes and stays in place."
Pros: Offers firm, long-lasting hold in seconds
Cons: May leave a visible, sticky film once lashes are removed
Specs: 0.18 oz with brush applicator
6. Sephora Collection Brush Tip Clear False Eyelash Glue
I never discount the Sephora Collection line when I'm on the hunt for an affordable and high-performing addition to my makeup kit. Its eyelash glue (in both clear and black) has a long-lasting, latex-free formula that lets you effortlessly apply your lashes and keeps them in place all day. The brush-tip applicator makes it easy to use no matter how shaky my hands get after one too many cups of coffee.
Customer Review: "Sephora's lash adhesive is so good and easy to use! I just wait the recommended 30 seconds before applying and my lashes are perfectly placed. The adhesive lasts all day and there is no irritation. On top that, the price is more than reasonable for the quality of this product and the amount you get. 10/10 recommend!"
Pros: The tube is squeezable to reduce product waste
Cons: Lashes and glue are challenging to remove
Specs: 0.11 oz tube with brush applicator
7. House of Lashes Eyelash Adhesive
Formulated without harmful additives like parabens, phthalates, and formaldehyde, House of Lashes Eyelash Adhesive offers long-lasting, waterproof wear. It's also safe to use for latex-sensitive and contact-wearing individuals and is very gentle on the lash line. You won't have to sacrifice any of your natural lashes upon removal!
Customer Review: "Easily the best eyelash glue I have ever tried. Dries quickly, very user-friendly, and could probably hold my lashes in place during a tornado. Have been using this one for a couple of years and it’s outstanding."
Pros: Formula is offered in both a dark and clear finish
Cons: Glue is challenging to remove (double cleansing and micellar water help)
Specs: 0.11 oz tube with brush applicator
8. Duo Brush-On Adhesive
Of all the lash adhesives I've tested, Duo's Brush On Adhesive features one of the thinnest brushes for ultra-precise, quick application on the lash strip and individual lashes. Its formula is also enriched with ingredients such as vitamins A, C, and E to keep your lash line nourished and protected while you wear your favorite falsies.
Customer Review: "This is one of the first lash glues I've tried and never tried anything else because I was immediately hooked. What I love most is the brush applicator which allows me to have better control on how much i apply. Pretty easy to use!"
Pros: Comes with a thin brush for precise, quick application
Cons: Application may not be mess-free
Specs: 0.18 oz tube with brush applicator
9. Velour Lashes Glue & Go Adhesive Pen
There are very few makeup products I value more than a mess-free lash glue that can be tucked away in your purse. The Glue & Go False Lash Adhesive Pen is a beginner-friendly adhesive pen with a precision tip and next to no drying time. Its formula features plant-derived extracts green tea, aloe vera, and vitamin E to nourish your natural lashes.
Customer Review: "I really love this adhesive glue pen for on the go touchups! I personally prefer the brush style for daily use, however, this pen is easy to use especially if you're a beginner. The formula is great and had no lifting throughout the day. I personally would carry one on the go, just in case you need a touch up."
Pros: Formula uses plant-derived extracts (green tea, aloe vera, and vitamin E)
Cons: None
Specs: 0.90 oz pen with brush applicator
10. Sugarlash Pro Signature Bond Eyelash Adhesive
Yes, the price is a bit higher for this one compared to my other top picks, but the results are out of this world. It has a quick dry time of one to two seconds, has a black glossy finish, and offers flawless application. But shop carefully—Sugarlash Pro's line of eyelash adhesives is designed for professional use.
Customer Review: "I’ve purchased so many adhesives in all of my years of lashing and honestly this one is the best yet. I have been using it for a year now and my clients retention is the best it’s ever been. Stop searching ladies, the greatest adhesive is here!"
Pros: Has a quick dry time of one to two seconds
Cons: None
Specs: 0.30 oz tube with drop applicator
