As a lash artist, you know that the application of eyelash extensions requires preparation and precision. Using the proper equipment is key. Eye tape and under eye pads make this process easier and quicker and provide better results. We offer only high-quality eye pads and the best tape for lash extensions to help you create gorgeous lashes.
There are several different types of tape that can be used for eyelash extensions. Foam, Micropore™ and medical silicone tapes are all appropriate. Our Premium Under Eye Tape for eyelash extensions is a super sticky silicone-based tape that is gentle and hypoallergenic — perfect for manipulating the lid to make lashing easier. We also offer latex-free Micropore™ eye tape for use on bottom lashes and for clients with thin or sensitive skin. Our foam tape is flexible, and hypoallergenic – a perfect substitute for under eye pads, or to help clients with fluttering eyelids.
Eye tape helps prevent lashes from laying flat against the under eye pads and makes isolating easier. It can also be used for inner and outer corners, and to assist in lashing each layer. After positioning the eye pads, you are ready to start applying the eye tape.

When removing eye tape, make sure you support the eyelid skin as you go so it doesn't pull. Only remove the under eye pads after all of the layers of eye tape have been removed.
When choosing eye tape, there are many factors to consider, such as the client's sensitivity, eye shape and skin type. But for all clients, the best tape for lash extensions has the following characteristics:
