What you can do
Here are DIY (Do It Yourself) tricks that help.
Take a hot bath
If there is one thing artificial lashes hate, it’s moisture and heat. Go and have a hot bath and pour a generous amount on your eyes. It might not fall immediately but it will in time.
Use castor, vegetable, or coconut oil

These oils are quite effective when it comes to taking off eyelashes. Before you go to bed, use a cotton swab to pour a generous amount on your eyelashes but do not let it get to your eyes.
Use an oil-based makeup remover
Your makeup remover could be either water or oil-based but when you are keen on removing your eyelashes, use an oil-based remover, this is because really good oil-based removers contain glycols that help dissolve adhesive bonds.
Use an eyelash remover
Walk into the cosmetic store and buy an eyelash remover. This makes the whole process easier.
