I bought double eyelid fibre strips (not Mezzaik but similar) and I can't figure out how to use them.
The photos aren't explicit and I can't read Japanese!
I have a slight crease already so I know where to place the fibre. I stretch the fibre and stick to my eyelid - then I use the tool and push the skin slightly under the fibre.
The problem is - the double eyelid doesn't hold. I end up with a string sitting on my eyelid.
Anyone use tape and have suggestions? I don't know if I'm pushing the wrong area or placing the fibre incorrectly. |

| My cousin used these, not understanding exactly how the sticker/strip is staying on. Is it folding up on you? I haven't used it since I was lucky enough to have decent creased lids (thanks mommy for that). Are you placing the strip the top of the strip along your crease? |

I have a brand that looks the same as the Mezzaik brand. It looks like sticky teeth flossing material. It sticks to your eyelid and you use a plastic tool to press in a crease.
I've seen videos of the glue but that almost seems easier because the glue covers a large area. Mine is thinner than flossing material.
So, it looks like fine, sticky, flossing material. It sticks on my eyelid, and holds a crease for 2 seconds, but then the crease unfolds and I have a string stuck to my eyelid!  |

| Rjez, you might want to PM Dollbird about this, she has experience using it or a similar product. You could also search for the "Eyelid Tapes" thread - I think she contributed to it and has information there. |

Yup, I've pm'd Dollbird and a couple of sellers on Ebay.
I tried again yesterday afternoon and same thing ... As soon as I blink the crease goes away and I'm left with a string across my eyelid.
I've tried placing higher and lower so now I'm wondering if I need a longer or shorter strip. Anyway, this is getting expensive since I've gone through half the pack because it loses stickiness with all my attempts. |

| [b]You can always try the eyelid string/tape and solidify the crease with an eyelid glue. That will work.[/b] |
