What does bonder do to lash extensions?
In the lash world, achieving flawless, long lasting lash extensions is always a top priority for lash professionals. One key tool that has become essential in this process is the lash bonder. But what does it actually do, and how can it help you as a lash artist? Today, we’re breaking down exactly how a lash bonder works and why our new "Apple of My Eye" Lash Bonder is a must have for creating strong, beautiful lash sets that last.
What is a Lash Bonder?
A lash bonder is a liquid product you use at the end of your lash appointment. It instantly cures the adhesive, locking in the lash extensions right away. This step helps improve retention, ensuring the lashes stay secure for longer and maintain a flawless look.
How Does the Apple of My Eye Bonder Help?
Our "Apple of My Eye" Super Bonder offers several benefits:
✅ Reduces Fumes: It stops adhesive fumes from causing irritation or discomfort. Perfect for sensitive or watery eyes.
✅ Flexible Bond: It creates a strong but flexible hold, so the extensions move naturally.
✅ Better Retention: By curing the adhesive instantly, it helps prevent lashes from sticking together or falling off early.
✅ More Comfort: Clients can open their eyes right away without any stinging or watery eyes, and they can safely wet their lashes immediately. No need to wait 24 hours!
𝗪𝗛𝗘𝗡 𝗧𝗢 𝗨𝗦𝗘 𝗜𝗧:
• Low humidity environments
• Clients with poor retention
• Extra sensitive clients
• When you want faster drying time at the end of an appointment
• Volume sets that need a stronger hold
𝗪𝗛𝗘𝗡 𝗡𝗢𝗧 𝗧𝗢 𝗨𝗦𝗘 𝗜𝗧:

How to Use the Apple of My Eye Bonder
Using the bonder is simple and takes just a few steps:
1️⃣ Complete the lash set.
2️⃣ Place a small drop of the bonder using iLevel Lab microbrush.
3️⃣ Gently dab it at the base of the extensions, focusing on the adhesive area.
4️⃣ Let it sit for 1–2 minutes to fully cure.
Why Lash Artists Love Using a Bonder
A lash bonder helps create a stronger, longer lasting hold. It also reduces irritation by sealing in fumes, so clients leave with lashes that look and feel great. Our "Apple of My Eye"Lash Bonder is designed to work with any type of adhesive—whether you’re using classic or volume sets.
Can You Use Primer and Bonder Together?
Absolutely! Here’s how they work as a team:
Primer: Use at the start of your appointment to clean and prep the natural lashes. It removes oils and dirt so the adhesive can bond better. Use primer only on clients with oily lids or skin. For clients with dry or sensitive skin, you can skip this step.
Bonder: Use at the end of your appointment to cure the adhesive instantly, lock in retention, and reduce irritation.
Using both primer and bonder helps ensure that your client’s lashes last longer and feel more comfortable!
