Updated October 2026 · 5 min read
Strong smell. Stronger hold. Smelly Bond™ is the legendary layering bond and the strongest, stickiest hold Lashify makes. It's lightweight, buildable and waterproof, powered by extra-strength Micro-Flex™ technology for flexible wear. And yes, it smells. The scent fades. The hold doesn't.

The scent fades. The hold doesn't.
Taking it off
Never pull. Coat your lashes with Release Lash Remover, wait 25–30 seconds and wipe them away. Strong, multi-layer sets can take a little longer. Your Gossamers come off intact, ready to clean and wear again.
