Hmmm It's never happened to me but I have heard of people being allergic to latex and the glue does have latex. Maybe you're allergic to latex?

I guess you are referring to Duo glue? BTW, it is not a MAc glue, MAC just sells Duo, it's actually a surgical adhesive glue which you can also buy at the pharmacy. I didn't know it contains latex, but that could be a very valid reason!

Oh, yes, I forgot to mention that it wasn't MAC glue.

Hm, could be anything. Try switching to another glue that is latex free maybe and see what happens.

You may be using too much or not applying your lashes correctly.

maybe ur glue is off?? i guess it must go off like evrything else>??
*shrugs* i use a glue by Ardell. Does a good job at keeping lashes stuck on cos i use the inidividual lashes.
HTH =)

latex near your scalp vs latex near your eye are two wholly different things.

I'm allergic to latex, but it can touch my hands and I just kind of itch and get a little tiny bit of a rash. Latex near my eyes = lots of swelling and I rock a bullfrog look, which is NOT sexy.

I've only found one glue so far that is silicone based, and that Vincent Longo's lash glue. It comes with the lashes, it's a LITTLE BITTY tube, and you can't buy it alone. If anyone knows of another brand, I'd love to hear it...because I can't wear lashes at all due to my allergy.

DUO doesn't bother my eyes, but the adhesive that comes with Makeup Forever's eyelashes make my eyes do that! It kind of feels like my eyes are burning and I am constantly blinking!

maybe you should just try another glue.

Have you been using this glue for the past three years? If you have, did this reaction started to happen recently?
