Is it okay to cut false lashes?
It’s totally okay to cut false lashes, and actually, it’s encouraged for a better fit! Trimming your strip eyelashes to size helps the lash band fit seamlessly on your eye, reducing any over hang that may increase the likelihood of strip lashes lifting in the corners.

Do you cut the inner or outer lashes?
Whilst like most things in beauty, it comes down to personal preference. It is far more forgiving to cut your strip lashes on the outer corner rather than the inner corner. Trimming from the inner corner, can mess with the style of the lashes. Cutting from the outer corner keeps the lash style intact.
Where to cut strip lashes:

Trimming from the outer edge of the lash strip maintains the integrity and lash mapping of the
strip.

Trimming from the inner corner can alter the desired style of the lash strip in a negative way.
