Want to offer clients the most requested lash trend? The wet look creates irresistible texture and dimension that appears freshly coated in mascara [1][2].
Create the wet look by crafting narrow, tightly-closed 6-8D fans using spikeless .03 lashes, applying with our super bonder adhesive, and strategically placing them to mimic the "undried mascara" effect [1][2].
As a lash artist specializing in texture techniques, I've perfected this method to deliver consistent results. Here's my exact process.
Why Choose Spikeless Fans for the Wet Look?
Struggling with spiky, unnatural results? Spikeless fans create the perfect seamless texture.
Spikeless .03 volume lashes naturally cluster together without gaps, creating that coveted "stuck together" mascara appearance when applied correctly [1][6].
Key advantages of spikeless lashes:
| Feature | Benefit |
|---|---|
| Matte finish fibers | Absorbs light like real mascara |
| 0.03mm diameter | Ultra-light for dense stacking |
| Memory curl retention | Holds textured shape longer |
| Tapered ends | Prevents spiky separation |
Always select C-curl or CC-curl for maximum wet effect. The matte black color enhances the illusion [1][6].
How to Craft Perfect Wet Look Fans?
Fans separating after application? The secret lies in your formation technique.
Create 6-8D fans with bases pinched 40% tighter than normal, leaving the tips slightly looser to maintain movement while keeping the roots densely packed [1][3].
Step-by-Step Fan Formation: 1. **Prep Work Surface** - Lay down a silicone pad or paper towel to control glue absorption [4] 2. **[Dip Technique](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BlCumIwhAHk)[^1]** - Only dip the base 1mm into adhesive to prevent oversaturation 3. **Formation** - Use curved tweezers to pinch the base tightly while allowing tip separation 4. **Setting** - Rest each fan on its side for 5-7 seconds before application 5. **Consistency Check** - All fans should appear as narrow triangles when viewed from above [3] This technique prevents the "spider leg" effect while ensuring proper adhesion [3][4].
Where to Place Wet Look Lashes for Maximum Impact?
Results looking flat? Strategic placement creates dimension.
Concentrate dense clusters at the lash line midpoint, tapering to single lashes at the inner corners and light fans at the outer edges for balanced texture [2][6].
Advanced Placement Guide:
| Eye Section | Lash Type | Effect |
|---|---|---|
| Inner 1/3 | 3-5D fans | Subtle texture |
| Mid 1/3 | 6-8D clusters | Maximum wet effect |
| Outer 1/3 | 4-6D fans | Lifted finish |
Alternate fan directions slightly to prevent uniform rows. The super bonder adhesive should be applied when humidity is 50-60% for optimal setting time [6].
Why Our Super Bonder Outperforms Standard Adhesives?
Clients losing lashes too soon? The right adhesive makes all the difference.
Our super bonder features flexible cyanoacrylate that moves with natural lashes while creating waterproof bonds that last 3-4 weeks through showers and sleeping [1][4].
Adhesive Advantages: - **[Quick-set formula](https://ardellshop.com/products/duo-quick-set-striplash-adhesive-clear)[^1]**: 1-2 second drying time - **Low fumes**: Comfortable for sensitive clients - **Flexible hold**: Prevents premature breakage - **Clear finish**: Undetectable on lashes - **Humidity adaptive**: Performs in 40-70% RH Always store in a cool, dark place with included silica gel packs. Shake for 30 seconds before each use [4].
How to Maintain the Wet Look Between Fills?
Clients ruining their set? Proper aftercare preserves the texture.
Recommend [oil-free cleansers](https://liilash.com/blogs/knowledge/lash-extension-cleansers-why-its-essential-for-healthy-lashes)[^2] and lash brushes to prevent buildup while maintaining the clustered texture between appointments (every 2-3 weeks) [1][6].
Client Care Instructions: 1. **Cleansing**: Use foam cleaner with soft brush daily 2. **Drying**: Pat lashes dry with lint-free cloth 3. **Brushing**: Use a clean spoolie to reshape while damp 4. **Sleeping**: Encourage silk pillowcases 5. **Products**: Ban oil-based makeup removers Provide clients with a mini cleansing brush and care card with purchase [6].
