About DUO

Originally owned by the Knomark Manufacturing Company (mostly famous for producing shoe-polishes) before being purchased as part of a larger deal by Revlon in 1957. The brand is now owned by American International Industries, who also manufacture another of our absolute faves - Ardell lashes.

In the early days, however, DUO eyelash glue had a pretty limited line of products due to the fact that false eyelashes were pretty expensive and, because they were a beauty secret used primarily by actresses and models, there was no need for the extensive range they now supply.

When falsies exploded in popularity in the 1970s, as more and more people discovered the secret of Hollywood perfect luscious lashes (especially after the Miss USA beauty pageant contestants revealed that one of their ultimate beauty secrets was, in fact, false eyelashes), DUO - which was already selling in supermarkets and American drugstores - quickly established itself as the go-to adhesive.

DUO – The Range

Even if you're completely new to false eyelashes, you’ve probably heard of DUO lash adhesive - everyone from your top influencers to your mum is probably obsessed. It’s no wonder DUO is the world’s bestselling eyelash adhesive - for more than 60 years, DUO has been depended on by fans of falsies the whole world over, becoming the No.1, go-to false lash glue for a long-lasting, firm hold on your favourite false eyelashes.

DUO provides lash fanatics with everything they need - clear and dark tones, quick setting formulas, glues for strips or individual lashes. DUO has something for literally everyone! If you haven’t tried a product from our amazing DUO collection, girl, read on! You can find out below exactly which DUO adhesive is best for you.

DUO Clear Tones

The most popular DUO adhesive formulas are, of course, the original clear tone products which it produces across most ranges, from the standard DUO Quick Set Strip Lash Adhesive Clear Tone (available in a travel-friendly 7g tube or a 14g tube for makeup artists, beauty professionals and the lash obsessed) to Underlash Bond & Seal

These adhesives apply white and dry clear to give you the great control of an opaque adhesive, but a seamless blend once you’ve applied your lashes.

DUO Black & White Tones

If you’re super confident about quickly and precisely applying your lashes, then you might prefer using one of DUO’s black or white lash adhesives to help improve your lash definition and give you that flawless eyeliner effect during application (without having to worry about smudging or reapplying throughout the day).

Like most of our products, these are also available on subscription - so you never need to worry about running out!

Use advice for DUO Dark & Light Tone adhesives

You can either squeeze the DUO adhesive onto a cotton bud, or apply it directly onto the lash band (if you have a steady hand!!), but you then need to wait for the adhesive to go slightly tacky (this takes approximately 4-5 seconds - try to be patient, it really does help).

Once a little tacky, you’re good to go and can apply your false lashes knowing you can get the perfect position and hold!

DUO Brush On Adhesives

If you need a helping hand to apply your lashes (not everyone has the flawless hand control of a Fleur De Force!!) look no further than the incredibly popular DUO Brush On Adhesives (like the amazing DUO Quick-Set Strip Lash Adhesive White/Clear). One of the most popular brush-on varieties (sometimes known as "DUO lash glue green") is DUO’s Brush-on Strip Lash Adhesive White/Clear Tone which, if you love the original formula of DUO clear strip eyelash glue, but want a more straightforward application, is exactly what you need!! 

Available in both clear and dark tones, this lash adhesive is ideal for beginners (or anyone that occasionally needs a quick and easy application process). Featuring an ultra-thin, flexible brush head, you can achieve total control and precision with minimal mess or fuss. 

The formula is also latex-free, making it suitable for those with allergies or sensitive eyes!

DUO Quick Set Adhesives

Speaking of the need for speed! If you occasionally need flawless lashes in a flash, then the DUO’s Quick Set formulation is part of what makes the brand a must-have for your makeup bag.

DUO products are designed to set/dry in just 5 seconds for a quicker false eyelash application. Simply use the brush on the wand to apply a thin layer of DUO adhesive to the lash band, and voilà - perfect eyelashes in under 10 seconds!!

DUO Individual Lash Adhesives

If you regularly reach for individual lashes rather than strip lashes, you’ll be pleased to know that DUO has you covered here as well! Duo’s range of individual lash adhesives are available in both clear and opaque finishes (like many of their products) and even have a clever dropper bottle design for easy, fuss-free application.

If you’re wondering how it works - simply apply a small amount of lash glue to a piece of tin foil, then use tweezers to gently pull your individual eyelash cluster through the adhesive and apply as usual.

Why We Love DUO Eyelash Glue

The Duo range is well-loved for several reasons - it’s safe to use (with a latex free option for those with an allergy), long-lasting, quick drying and reasonably priced! DUO is just the go-to brand for anyone looking to get the most out of their falsies.

It doesn't matter what brand you’re wearing, individual or strip lashes (even magnetic) - DUO glue is what you need, and it’s guaranteed to keep your lashes looking as fresh as possible.

Duo works with them all. That includes dramatic lashes, natural lashes, volume lashes, and more.

How To Use DUO Lash Glue

The application of your false lashes will vary slightly, depending on the lash style you have chosen. Fortunately, DUO manufactures both DUO Individual Lash Adhesive and DUO Striplash Adhesive. Here’s how to use these products:

For Strip Lashes

  • Check the fit of your desired strip lashes, then make sure you cut them to fit the size and shape of your eye;
  • Apply a thin bead of DUO striplash adhesive along the length of the lash band;
  • Pop the lashes in place and press down gently to secure (gently helps to prevent slippage and smudging of the line).

For Individual and Flare Lashes

  • Pour a couple of drops of the glue onto a piece of foil or Jade Stone;
  • Pick up an individual lash or flare cluster using tweezers;
  • Pull the knot or end of the lash through the DUO Individual Lash Adhesive;
  • Pop the lash on top of your natural lash line - the aim here is to get the knot as close to your natural eyelid as possible (but without hurting yourself or causing discomfort).

FAQs

How long will DUO lash glue last?

DUO Individual lash glue will hold lashes firmly in place for up to two weeks as long as you apply the glue correctly and keep lashes away from water and steam.

DUO strip lash glue will keep your lashes in place all day.

Can I sleep with DUO lash glue on?

Yes, it is perfectly safe to sleep while wearing lashes attached with DUO lash adhesives on, but if you want to keep your lashes in the best condition you should avoid sleeping with your lashes pressed into the pillow (you know, because we can choose what happens when we sleep - maybe invest in some kind of strap). If your eyes look or feel irritated by morning, you should stop wearing lashes and lash glue overnight!

We do recommend that you remove your strip lashes and DUO strip lash adhesive before going to bed, though the likely worst case scenario is you wake wearing a lash on your cheek.

Can you use DUO eyelash glue for a lash lift?

No, DUO lash glue cannot be used for a lash lift!

Can you use DUO glue for individual lashes?

DUO offers a range of specially formulated individual lash adhesives to be used with individual lashes which will keep them secure for up to 2 weeks. For one day wear, you can use DUO strip lash adhesive to apply your individual lashes.

Is DUO eyelash glue waterproof?

DUO lash glue offers a water-resistant formula which is long lasting, but although you’ll be okay if you accidentally get your lashes wet (or get caught in the rain), we wouldn't recommend swimming or showering.

How long does DUO lash glue take to dry?

Duo quick dry lash glue will take between 5-10 seconds max to dry (but can take longer to cure), individual lash adhesives take between 30-60 seconds to dry, meaning you’ll need to change your drop every few minutes or it’ll become stringy.

Does DUO lash glue contain latex?

DUO’s brush on adhesive (the green one) is latex free, but many lash glues will contain latex. We always recommend checking the ingredients before purchasing - and always carrying out a patch test before applying!!

How do I remove DUO eyelash glue from my eyes after use?

To remove DUO lash glue, use some good quality eye makeup remover to gently break up the glue, using a few cotton pads (we have some pro quality remover available here). Pour some makeup remover onto a pad and press the pad against your lashes for around 30 seconds. Then wipe the adhesive away, it’s that simple!

How do I store DUO lash glue and make it last as long as possible?

To make sure your lash glue lasts for as long as possible, you need to store it in a cool dry place, and make sure the container is tightly sealed with the brush facing down! In fact, the best place to store lash glue is actually in the fridge, or a cool cupboard (you might as well use the egg shelf for something, right?).
