Contours Rx Lids by Design - Non-Surgical & Transparent Eyelid Lift Strips - for a More Youthful-Looking Appearance, Lid Lifting Treatment, Eyelid Tape for Hooded Eyes (7mm) 80ct

I was so hesitant to buy these based on previous reviews, but I am so glad I did! They are excellent. I'm in my 50s with very droopy eyelids. It makes me sad to look in the mirror. These work wonders at lifting my lids and opening up my eyes. They are completely invisible. I was super worried about applying them correctly based on some of the other reviews. It took me a few goes to determine the best positioning for my eyes, but once I figured it out, it's quite easy. I think one of the keys is to gently bend the plastic near the edge of the sticker is so that you can remove the adhesive strip without curling the ends. If you do it right, you should only have a hold of it with the tweezers at the very, very edge. When applying, aim for getting the middle of the strip to the middle of your placement on your eyelid and then press down the sides from there. (Don't start the adhesion at one end or the other as it's more likely to go wonky that way.) I align the top of the adhesive strip just under the natural upper curve of my eyeball as seen through my eyelid. Once it's on your eyelid, press it down for a few seconds to get it to adhere well. Once you've done this, it'll last all day. (Make sure you clean your eyelids well prior to application as you don't want any oil trapped underneath because it will weaken the adhesion.) Good luck. I hope it works as well for others as it does for me. Droopy eyelids suck!

Don’t work. Never lift my eyelid very bad product

I had to practice getting it positioned correctly, it didn’t take me long to place the tape. Fantastic product, easy to use, stays in place, comfortably, and the adhesive stays on without a lot of stickiness.

Sorry for the lengthy review but there’s a lot to be said about these so please bear with me. I’ve always had heavy droopy eyelids but they’ve gotten significantly worse as I age. Saw these on an online ad (on Instagram I think) and took a chance ordering the 7 mm Lids 80 pack. 7mm is for those who have a lot of excess eyelid skin. They are much bigger than the smaller ones so keep that in mind when you’re ordering. Especially the larger sizes as they’ll be more noticeable. It’s not as easy to place them as it looks. It depends where your eye folds down the most and you have to finagle the strip a little. You’ll have to be sure your eyelids are squeaky clean or they won’t adhere as well. The corners will lift if you use the tweezers there so I pick them up from the middle of the lid strip. Took about 4 strips on each eye to get it right. Or at least as right as I could. I took off a star because they aren’t easy to put on and need to include at least 4 practice strips. Like putting on false lashes, it takes time to learn what works best for you.Anyhow, as you can see it’s a very noticeable difference. I’ve got NO makeup on at all and these were taken minutes apart. Here’s where they lose another star: makeup. You can see them if you have eye makeup on, especially if it’s dark makeup. I tend to use lighter more neutral colors like pinks and beiges but people can still see the strips when you look down.Are they perfect? No. Do they stick well? Yes. Does it take a lot of practice to put them on? Yes. Are they worth the $35 compared to the other brands for $8? I haven’t tried the others but these look a LOT more transparent and not like mesh where you have to use adhesive. That’s why I went with these. So I would say worth the price difference. I’m forever trying wrinkle creams and serums so at $35 this wasn’t an expensive loss for me compared to all the other junk I bought that didn’t work. I’ll be working on ways to hide them a bit more and testing different eyeshadow methods and colors to see if it helps. What I did really like was that once positioned correctly, I couldn’t feel them. That was definitely a plus especially if you’re wearing them all day.Hope this helps!! Good luck!

Ok this works, yay! For those having trouble, take the moment to look at the video on Amazon where the founder shows how to place the strip, it provides some great tips. I'm not saying this strip equals surgery, but it does make a difference, especially on my one eye that is quite a bit more hooded than the other. I have oily eyelids so wasn't sure these would stick, but I've used them for over 8 hours without problems. I took off a star because it can be a little tricky to release the strip from the tweezers without curling the edge, but patience is the key. Eyelid primer is a must for me if I want my eye shadow to stay and to keep mascara from transferring to my upper eyelids. I just pat the primer over the strip, than powder, and then apply shadow as normal. I have used power eye shadow and liquid eye shadow. I find applying in layers is better than putting a heap of shadow on, and yes it does (at least in my case) make the outline of the strip a bit more visible, but I have only tried a couple times so I might develop better techniques as I keep working with it. Honestly you have to be up close and staring to see the outline so not a big deal. For reference, I tried the strips with Hourglass Veil eyelid primer, and Nikkia Joy Cosmetics loose translucent powder, Too Faced eye shadow, and Ulta Liquid eye shadow. Give it a go, I think it's worth it and plan to buy again when I run out.

I always had hooded lids but as I have gotten older, the hoods became more pronounced and the skin started to get wrinkly - made me look much older than I am. I honestly thought either these won't work or they would be difficult to put on- I am so HAPPY to say I was wrong! Absolutely LOVE these!! I put one on and realized I placed it too high on the lid. Placed it a bit lower -and it was perfect! Cant believe these work but they do and I am thrilled! Tips: Make sure your lids are free from eye creams or any oil, raise your eye brow slightly with your fingers, and use the other hand to hold the strip with the tweezer to place them on the eye. Also make sure the round part of the strip is on top. Took 2 seconds thereafter once I figured out approximately where they should be placed. Works beautifully!
