The Ultimate Guide to Lash Supplies: Tools and Products
Are you looking to enter the lash business but need help figuring out where to start? If so, welcome to LASHGOD’s ultimate guide to lash supplies!
Every experienced lash tech knows that having the right tools and products is essential for delivering exceptional results and ensuring client satisfaction. But what are the must-have lash supplies that every professional needs? These are the questions we’re going to answer today.
Eyelash Extension Trays
The foundation of any lash business is the extensions themselves. At LASHGOD, we offer a diverse range of high-quality eyelash extensions to cater to various styles and preferences.
When I say we have a wide variety of lash trays available, I truly mean it. From our iconic and bestselling Lashgod OG Famous Cashmere Jet Black Trays to our vibrant colored options like the Brownie Glaze Lash Tray and the Blondes + Gingies Lash Tray, we have something for every client.
Mirror Mirror Tray
The right tray can make or break your lash game, which is why it’s crucial to choose wisely. However, many newcomers to the lash industry aren’t even aware of the different types of lashes available. Let’s quickly go over them:
- Classic Lashes: These single extensions are perfect for clients seeking a natural look. Each extension is applied individually to the natural lashes, providing subtle enhancement.
- Volume Lashes: Lightweight and fluffy, volume lashes allow for multiple extensions to be applied to a single natural lash, creating a fuller, more dramatic effect.
- Hybrid Lashes: A blend of classic and volume lashes, hybrids offer the best of both worlds, delivering a balanced look with added volume and texture.
Brownie Glaze and Velvet Teddy Tray
To cater to all of your clients, it’s best to have something for everyone. The easiest way to achieve this is with our MIRROR MIRROR XL TRAYS. This innovative tray combines four curls into one convenient package, offering a variety of C, C+, D, and D+ curls with a whopping 20 rows per curl variation! What more could a lash tech newbie ask for?
Fool-Proof Adhesives
Choosing the right adhesive is crucial for the longevity and appearance of lash extensions. Additionally, lash glue can be the primary factor causing allergies and irritation in your clients, so it’s essential to choose wisely.
At LASHGOD, we focus on two key aspects when adding new lash glues to our store: improving the retention of the lashes and ensuring they are tolerable for clients with sensitive eyes. Fortunately, LASHGOD offers some of the most iconic lash adhesives on the market.
Our adhesives not only prolong the durability of your client’s lash sets (making them more likely to come back to you) but also minimize the chances of any unwanted side effects. Even though it’s difficult for us to choose our favorites, here are two that we cannot recommend enough:
1. Lashgod Magical Bond Adhesive
The Lashgod Magical Bond Adhesive lives up to its name with its exceptional performance. This thin viscosity adhesive features low fumes and an impressive 8-week retention period, making it a top choice for both seasoned and newbie lash artists.
With a quick dry time of 0.5 to 1 second, it ensures efficient application while maintaining high quality. Suitable for classic, hybrid, volume, and mega volume lashing, the Magical Bond Adhesive is versatile and reliable, enhancing your lash game effortlessly.

2. Lashgod Supernatural Bond Adhesive
The Lashgod Supernatural Bond Adhesive is a groundbreaking product in the lash industry. After over a year of development, this innovative adhesive stands out with its 1/10 fume level and instant contact dry time of 0.5 seconds. Remarkably, it is free of Butyl-based Cyanoacrylate, which is the main bonding ingredient in most adhesives but also the primary cause of allergies, eye irritation, and redness.
Supernatural Adhesive and Curematic Primer
Despite this, the Supernatural Bond Adhesive offers an 8-10 week retention period. Additionally, it is oil-resistant, thanks to its unique formulation with carrot seed oil. This revolutionary adhesive ensures both exceptional performance and client comfort.

Tweezers
Next, let’s discuss a category that many lash techs tend to overlook. However, experienced lash wizards know that the right pair of tweezers can make or break a client’s lash set. Precision is key in lash application, so choosing wisely is crucial. Let’s first clear the air and explain the types of tweezers you’ll need for your work:
- Isolation Tweezers: Essential for separating natural lashes to apply extensions accurately.
- Volume Tweezers: Specifically designed for picking up and fanning multiple volume lashes with ease.
- Straight Tweezers: Versatile and ideal for classic lash application and detailed work.
At LASHGOD, we offer all these types of tweezers. We ensure they are made from the finest materials and come in adorable designs, so you’ll enjoy using them for many years to come.
Galaxy Girl Tweezers
While all of our tweezers are exceptional, two cult classic collections stand out:
The Galaxy Girl Tweezer Collection
Featuring a PRO GRIP ribbed ridge on the inside, these tweezers provide excellent control and comfort.

Both collections include all the tweezers you could possibly need as a lash tech, ensuring your toolkit is comprehensive and stylish.
Under-Eye Pads and Tapes
Protecting your client’s lower lashes and the delicate skin around their eyes is just as important as ensuring their lash set looks fresh and wispy. This is where under-eye pads and tapes come into play.
The right pads and tapes not only make your job significantly easier but also provide a pampering experience for your client, transforming their appointment into a self-care ritual.
Charcoal Gel Pads
Our under-eye pads are cult classics, available in bulk packs of 50 pairs. We offer two variations: Hydrofirm Hypoallergenic Collagen Gel Pads and Hydrofirm & Charcoal Gel Pads.
- Hydrofirm Hypoallergenic Collagen Gel Pads: These pads are perfect for clients with sensitive and dry skin. They soothe and hydrate the under-eye area, making the lash application process comfortable and luxurious.
-
Hydrofirm & Charcoal Gel Pads: Ideal for clients with blonde lashes, the black color of these pads makes the lashes more visible during application. The charcoal also offers detoxifying benefits, enhancing the overall experience.
When it comes to lash tape, our NICHIBAN Medical Grade Tape is unmatched.
SHOP: Hypoallergenic Collagen Gel Pad
SHOP: Hydrofirm & Charcoal Gel Pad
NICHIBAN Medical Grade Tape: This tape is breathable, offers a super grip without pulling the lashes during removal, and is flexible enough to be used without gel pads. Made in Japan, this medical-grade tape is tear-proof and provides the perfect balance of durability and comfort.

Primer and Remover
Last but certainly not least, let’s dive into the essentials: lash primers and removers. These products are crucial for making your job easier and enhancing your client’s experience. Using the right primer and remover ensures that lash extensions adhere well and can be safely removed without damaging the natural lashes.
Of course, we have two absolutely amazing recommendations for you.
Lashgod Super Bonder-Curematic Lash Primer: This game-changing primer is a must-have. It primes and seals lashes, and when it comes into contact with lash adhesive, it instantly polymerizes. This means an immediate bond that extends retention and eliminates fume irritation. It creates a protective barrier, locking in fumes and setting the adhesive without shock curing, which greatly improves the longevity of the lash set.
JELLY P- Gel Remover: Our quickest, cleanest, and most effective formula yet! This gel remover is perfect for removing full sets, half sets, and those stubborn lashes that refuse to budge. Simply use a microfiber swab or lip wand, saturate the base of the lashes with the remover, and work your way up. Let it sit for 5-12 minutes, and then watch the lashes slide off with ease.
