I received my double-sided eyelid tape last week and used it for only 3 days. During these 3 days, it took me several tries to get it right. However, when I finally got it right, I was happy with the results and it made makeup application so much easier. On the fourth day, I was shocked when I woke up. My eyelids were so different, and not in a good way. The eyelid skin looked thin and droopy. I became so scared. When I washed my face with cold water, my eyelids went almost back to normal, but not exactly the way they were before I started using the tape.
When I think back, I realise that my eyelids have started changing a few weeks before. I had noticed that eyeshadow wouldn't stay. Could it be because my skin got drier these weeks? So the eyelid skin was dry and fragile, and the tape had stretched it? :( Also, I never used to moisturise the skin around my eyes. On that day itself, I went out to buy an eye cream to try to repair the damage.
I asked my family and boyfriend, but they didn't see any difference in my eyelids. Of course, these are the kind of things that only you can notice. I haven't used the tape again, and am moisturising my skin a lot. I don't think it will ever go back to the way it was, as eyelid skin is the most fragile skin :( I'm hoping it won't get worse.
Girls, if you're considering using eyelid tape, DON'T. It's not worth the damage it could cause to your skin.
