Sensitivity to lash adhesive is not one size fits all. Different individuals may react to different components within an adhesive, which is why understanding what each formula reduces or removes is important.

These adhesives are formulated differently from one another. One formula reduces the percentage of cyanoacrylate, one removes it entirely, and one removes carbon black pigment.

Sensit-Eyes

Reduced cyanoacrylate formula

Sensit-Eyes is formulated with approximately 30% less ethyl cyanoacrylate than our standard lash adhesives. Cyanoacrylate is the primary bonding ingredient in lash adhesives and is also the most commonly reported irritant. 

By reducing the percentage of cyanoacrylate, this adhesive is designed to be gentler while still functioning as a cyanoacrylate based adhesive.

This lash adhesive:

  • Contains cyanoacrylate, but at a reduced percentage
  • Has a lower fume profile compared to standard adhesives
  • Has a black pigment finish
  • Is designed for artists looking for a gentler alternative without removing cyanoacrylate entirely

Sensit-Eyes is formulated with approximately 30% less ethyl cyanoacrylate than our standard adhesives. It remains a cyanoacrylate based adhesive with a black pigment finish. It can be used by any lash artist who prefers this specific formulation.
