If I sleep with fake eyelashes on will they come off? can I take my makeup off and leave them on? how long do they stay on for?

I think it depends on the type of fake lashes you purchased. Cheap ones will come off easily, I believe higher quality lashes stay on a couple days. I'm not 100% sure though.

No don't I did that and I got a infection. That have to be eyelash extensions

That could've been prone to something else though..

It's likely that leaving the eyelashes on over night aggravated any potential eye infection. I would say not to leave them on. The glue could irritate your eyes, seal bacteria, etc. It's not necessarily sanitary and may be uncomfortable to. I would suggest last extensions if you really want to keep the look over night.

Can I take them off and put the same ones back on? or can I only use them once.

It is certainly possible to rewear your falsies, but I do NOT recommend trying to sleep in them. Give your eyes a break overnight, and take the falsies off as well. if you treat them nicely, you can wear them a lot before they start showing the wear and tear.

That depends. What brand are they?
Either way, you can use lashes more often if 1) you clean and sanitize the band and 2) if you don't apply mascara on the actual lashes.
Mink lashes or higher quality made lashes you can use 20 + times. They are after pricier but you can use them more.
Ardell, red cherry, and any other cheaper ones can't be used more than a couple times.

May I ask why you are wanting to sleep in them? I wouldn't recommend it and since you can rewear lashes, if you wanted to have the same look the next day you can. no need to risk a eye infection or irritation. if you were looking for full looking lashes and you don't want to apply false lashes everyday then I would recommend lash extensions.

I've slept in mine after homecoming & when I woke up my eyes were glued shut for almost 15 minutes.

You can reuse lashes If that is your main concern. Strip lashes are much too heavy for prolonged wear and can damage your lashes, the moisture from sleeping can also cause glue to drip and harm your eyes or natural lashes as well.

I really don't recommend it, but I've slept in them once (cause I took a nap in the middle of the day and already had makeup on lol) and since false lashes are usually a lot longer, mine got all bent and weird on the side I slept on :( plus its probably really bad for your lashes& eyelids because of the glue (generally wearing any makeup on your face while sleeping is bad though) so I guess the answer is yes you can but it would be bad for your eyes and false lashes :p

Nothing will happen except if you are wearing strip eyelashes they will bend. I went through a faze of sleeping in make up including my lashes and the only thing that was damage were the lashes. If you're wearing individual lashes then you're totally fine those don't mess up but if you sleep rough you might loose a lash or two. 😊 I am not encouraging you to sleep in your lashes.
