Re: glue

Hi Les,

I have used eyelash glue in the past and found it worked well . You should be able to buy it in a tube without the eyelashes at the chemist.
Cheers

Re: glue

it's for my son's primary school performnce and one of the mums thought that eyelash glue might be a bit harsh for young kid's skin...

Fitch's Chemist in Hay St Mall, and also the Amcal Chemist in Rokeby Rd Subi are two places that stock some theatrical makeup and supplies, and I think they would have some spirit gum, which is the sort of stuff you use for putting on false moustaches, etc.
A little goes a long way....I've still got a little bottle I bought from Fitch's (that cost $6.95 about ten years ago) , and it still works.


Cheers,
Craig
