Step 1: Peel the Lash Cluster

Tip: Always clip from the base to remove the lashes, and not from the front where the lash hairs are! The lash hairs are delicate — that's how they look so natural!

  1. Grab your lash tweezers.
  2. Push the back of the lash with the tweezers to gently loosen it from the tray.
  3. Carefully clip the cluster with your tweezers at the base, just above the glue line, and peel it away. Clip gently — you may end up clipping some of the glue, and that's okay! Just be sure not to press too hard.
  4. Lift the cluster smoothly to protect the delicate fibers and avoid pulling them apart.

Step 2: Reposition the Lash on the Tray

Tip: If the glue is stuck, wiggle it gently to loosen it from the tweezer.

  1. Using your fingers, gently remove the lash from the tweezers.
  2. If some glue sticks to the tweezers, don’t worry! Carefully pull the lash away — it’s still good to use.
  3. Reposition the cluster by clipping the tweezers on the curve of the lash.
  4. Ensure the lash cluster is facing upright.

Step 3: Curl Your Lashes (Optional)

Tip: If you plan on applying makeup, we recommend putting on eyeliner before applying the lash clusters. You can still apply eyeliner after, but we find it a bit easier to do beforehand.

  1. Choose your favorite lash curler, one that feels comfortable for your eye shape and works well for your lashes. You don’t need a lash curler for Navo Lashes to work, but giving your lashes a curl beforehand can help open up your eyes even more.
  2. Place the curler at the base of your natural lashes, and curl your lashes. This ensures your natural lashes are lifted, as this will help keep them out of the way when applying your lash clusters.
  3. If you have lighter colored lashes, we recommend applying black mascara so that your natural lashes will blend in better with the black lashes from the lash clusters.

Step 4: Align and Place the Lash on the Eye

Tip: Ensure your eyes, especially the area where the roots of your lashes meet the waterline (the under-eye area), are clean, dry, and free of oil or debris, as oil may affect the durability of the lashes.

  1. Hold the lash cluster close to your eye.
  2. Start from the outer corners of your eye and work your way inwards. You can either start right at the outer corner or leave a 2-3 mm gap.
  3. Align the glue line from the base of the lash cluster directly where your natural lash roots emerge — or just 1 mm deeper. Make sure the adhesive lands on the skin, not on your lashes.
  4. Gently place the cluster underneath your natural lashes, ensuring it sits comfortably and securely.

Recommended Lash Placement

Place the adhesive strip of the lash cluster directly where the roots of your natural lashes emerge — or about 1 mm deeper. Placement can vary depending on your eye shape.

Make sure the sticky part adheres to the skin, not on the lash hairs.

Refer to green line for lash placement location.

Step 5: Continuing Applying Lash Clusters

  1. Continue applying the lash clusters, working your way towards the inner corner of your eye.
  2. Keep the base of the lash clusters in as smooth and even of a line as possible when applying.
  3. Depending on your eye shape, we recommend leaving a sufficient gap between the inner corner of your eye and where the lashes start for the best fit.

Step 6: Press the Lashes

This step is vital to ensure your lashes stay in place throughout the day!

  1. Grab your lash tweezers.
  2. Once all clusters are in place, gently clamp them at the base with your lash tweezers to ensure they are secure.
  3. The glue might stick to the tweezers a little when you clamp, but don't worry — it's completely fine! Just keep going.

Lash Maps

Every eye is unique, so the right lash length may vary. We suggest starting with 11 mm, as it suits most eyes. Here's a quick guide to popular lash maps:

Cat Eye: Short to long (e.g., 10, 11, 11, 12 mm) – great for elongating the eyes.

Squirrel: Similar to Cat Eye but with a shorter outer lash (e.g., 10, 11, 12, 11 mm) – perfect for downturned eyes.

Dolly: Longest in the center (e.g., 10, 11, 12, 11, 10 mm) – ideal for a wide-eyed look.

Most eyes need 3-6 clusters. Test different maps to find your perfect fit!

Step 7: Check Lash Fit

  1. If anything feels uncomfortable, lift your eyelid gently to check if the clusters are misaligned or inserted too deeply into the eye. It’s a fine balance and requires a bit of practice to get right — too far out, and the lash won’t hold well in place; too far in, and it won’t feel as comfortable.
  2. Practice makes perfect, and since everyone’s eye shape is a bit different, you’ll need to experiment to figure out what distance works best for you.
  3. Feel free to apply your makeup and enjoy your day with your beautiful new lashes!

Step 8: Removing the Lash Clusters

  1. Use your thumb and index fingers to gently grab each individual lash cluster and pull downward. It should not hurt, and the glue should come off with the lashes without pulling any of your natural lashes.
  2. If your lashes start to look a bit dirty or gunky, it’s time for a quick clean — usually after at least three wears. No need to clean after every single wear, just enjoy them a few times first! When cleaning is needed, first place the lashes in a bowl of water with a bit of mild soap and let them soak for a few minutes.
  3. Rinse the lashes by dipping them into a separate bowl of clean water to remove any soap residue.
  4. You can take a Q-tip and gently brush it along the curve of the lash to ensure they are fully clean.
  5. Once cleaned, place the lash clusters back in the tray — no need for perfection! You can position them along the sides of the box or return them to their original spot. The choice is yours!

Step 9: Removing the Glue Band from the Lash (Optional)

This step is for when it’s time to switch up the glue since it can collect dirt and lose tackiness over time.

  1. The glue that comes with each cluster can last 1-3 times before it needs to be replaced.
  2. Use your fingers (thumb and index) to peel off the glue. Grab the glue line on the cluster and pull downward.
  3. Wipe the removed glue on a tissue.

Step 10: Replacing the Glue on the Lash (Optional)

Navo Lashes Clear Lash Cluster Stickies are required for this step.

  1. Flip the lash cluster with the curve facing down over the Clear Lash Cluster Stickies sheet, aligning the base of the lash cluster over one of the glue lines. For an easier application, try sliding the lash cluster over the glue line from the top instead of pressing it straight down.
  2. Press the lash cluster firmly to ensure the glue line from the Clear Lash Cluster Stickies sheet adheres securely to the base of the lashes.
  3. Gently peel the lash cluster off the sheet. The glue line should come off with the lash cluster.
  4. Make sure the glue line lies flat along the base of the lashes, not at a 90-degree angle to the lash stem, to ensure a comfortable and natural fit.
