Save 10% on this batch of Spring Adhesive.

During manufacture, this batch received less carbon black pigment than intended, resulting in a slightly greyer finish rather than our usual jet black.

This is a colour variation only and does not affect the grab, bonding or performance of the adhesive.

Same Spring performance. Slightly different colour. 10% off while this batch lasts.

Is Spring the Right Lash Glue for You?

Choosing a lash adhesive should be based on your application speed, rather than simply choosing the fastest adhesive available.

Spring sits between our slower Meadow (1–2 seconds) and faster Wildflower (0.5–1 second) and Damselfly (approx. 0.3 seconds) adhesives.

This makes Spring a great next step if you're becoming faster and finding that a slower adhesive is beginning to hold you back, but you don't yet need an ultra-fast curing time.

If you're experiencing stickies because your adhesive is still wet when you move on, this can be a sign that your current adhesive is curing too slowly for your placement speed.

On the other hand, if you're experiencing lash pop-offs during application, your adhesive may be curing before you've completed your attachment. In that case, Spring could be too fast and Meadow may give you more working time.

Cosmetic-Grade Lash Adhesive, Made in the UK

Spring is manufactured in the UK specifically for professional lash-extension use, using cosmetic-grade ingredients and controlled manufacturing processes.

We moved our adhesive range to cosmetic-grade UK manufacturing because we wanted greater ingredient transparency, carefully controlled formulations and products developed specifically with professional lash treatments in mind.

Spring uses BHA (Butylated Hydroxyanisole) as its stabiliser.

We believe lash artists should know what they are working with, which is why we clearly provide our adhesive ingredients and are open about the stabilising system used within our formulation.

Ingredients:
Ethyl-2-Cyanoacrylate, Trimethylolpropane Triacrylate, Butylated Hydroxyanisole (BHA), Carbon Black

Spring is independently safety assessed for its intended professional use.

Spring Working Conditions

Your room conditions affect how quickly cyanoacrylate adhesive cures.

Spring's recommended working environment is:

Temperature: 20–24°C (68–75°F)
Humidity: 40–70% RH
Sweet spot: Approximately 55% RH

Higher humidity will generally make your adhesive cure faster, while lower humidity will generally slow it down.

This means Spring's approximately 1-second drying time can feel different depending on your treatment room conditions.

If your humidity is lower and your adhesive is curing too slowly, our Low Humidity Retention Booster can be used according to its instructions.

How to Use Spring Lash Adhesive

Shake Spring by hand for a full two minutes before your first use of the day to thoroughly mix the formulation.

Between adhesive drops, shake for approximately 30 seconds.

When dispensing your adhesive:

• Remove the cap before shaking
• Shake the bottle side to side rather than vigorously up and down
• Turn the bottle upside down and allow gravity to dispense the drop rather than squeezing the bottle
• Use small, fresh drops throughout your treatment
• Wipe the nozzle after dispensing with a lint-free wipe
• Replace the cap securely between uses

Correct adhesive handling helps maintain consistency and reduces product build-up around the nozzle.

How to Store Spring

Store Spring in a cool, dark place, inside its airtight storage container with the silica pack provided.

Keep the bottle upright and the cap securely closed.

Avoid unnecessary exposure to heat, humidity and direct sunlight.

Unopened shelf life: Up to 12 months
Opened shelf life: 90+ days when correctly stored and handled

Always refer to the expiry information supplied with your individual product.

Getting the Best Retention From Spring

Retention isn't determined by your adhesive alone.

Preparation, attachment, application speed, natural lash condition, room environment, client aftercare and the natural lash cycle can all affect how long extensions remain attached.

Spring can provide up to approximately 6–7 weeks' retention under suitable conditions, but this isn't a guarantee for every client.

Our pH Balancer, Low Humidity Retention Booster and Super Bonder can also be incorporated into your treatment where appropriate. Additional products should be chosen according to the client's lashes, your working environment and the individual product instructions rather than automatically being used with every set.

First Time Using Ladybug Lashes Adhesive?

If you're switching from another brand, don't assume a 1-second adhesive will feel identical to another adhesive with the same stated speed.

Differences in formulation, viscosity, stabilising systems, environment and application technique can all affect how an adhesive feels to work with.

That's why we recommend trying one of our 1g Lash Glue Samples before committing to a full-size bottle if you've never used our adhesives before.

This gives you the opportunity to find the Ladybug adhesive that best matches your actual placement speed and working environment.

Spring Lash Adhesive FAQs

Is Spring suitable for beginners?

Spring may suit some confident newer artists, but our first recommendation for newly qualified or slower lash artists is generally Meadow (1–2 seconds).

Spring's approximately 1-second drying time is better suited to artists who already have confident placement and are beginning to need a faster adhesive.

When should I move from Meadow to Spring?

If your placement has become quicker and you're regularly finding that your adhesive is still wet when you move on to the next lash, you may be ready for a faster adhesive.

Spring gives you approximately 1 second of working time, making it a natural next step from Meadow.

What's the difference between Spring and Wildflower?

The main difference is speed.

Spring is approximately 1 second, while Wildflower is 0.5–1 second and designed for faster artists.

If you're unsure between the two, choose according to your actual placement speed rather than simply choosing the faster option.

Can Spring be used for Classic and Volume lashes?

Yes. Spring can be used for professional Classic and Volume lash-extension techniques.

The important factor is whether its curing speed suits your application speed.

Does Spring have low fumes?

Spring is classed within our range as having minimal fumes.

However, minimal fumes does not mean allergy-free, hypoallergenic or suitable for someone with a known cyanoacrylate allergy.

Do I need to patch test Spring?

Yes. Ladybug Lashes requires a patch test before using Spring on a client.

Patch testing should be carried out 24–48 hours before treatment using the adhesive that will be used for the full application.

For lash extension adhesive, our recommended method is to apply 5–10 lash extensions per eye, rather than applying adhesive directly to the skin.

A negative patch test cannot guarantee that a reaction will not occur during or after a full treatment, but the required patch test should still be completed.

Always also follow any additional requirements set by your insurer.

Can I use Spring on myself?

No. Spring is a professional-use lash-extension adhesive and is not suitable for self-application, DIY lashes or strip lashes.

Can I get the SDS?

Yes. For the SDS relating to the adhesive in your order, email info@ladybuglashes.co.uk with your order number and we can provide the relevant document.
