TikTok account @ipsbeauty shared the stomach-churning footage which saw the technician wiping away at the dirt – which was a mixture of make-up, oil and dirt – that had coated their lids.
“So a client turned up today with dirty lashes… but even dirtier eyelids,” The video has been viewed nearly 800k times online.
“Before attempting to clean the lashes, I thought I’d remove the build up of make-up, oils and dirt on the eyelids.”
The technician can also be seen gently wiping away any buildup with a brush. They laughed and said: “This really made me gag.
“Everyone sees the easy parts of being a lash tech but no one sees this side. Well, I’m here to show you all what else we have to deal with… it’s not all glamorous and pretty.”
Although, they did admit: “As gruesome as it is, it can be quite satisfying to clean.”
They then urged those watching to take care of their eyelashes and clean them regularly to prevent dirt buildup like this happening.
The technician added: “Please keep your lashes clean! Not just the lashes but the surrounding areas too! It’s so important for your safety.”
The post racked up hundreds of comments, with many left baffled over how such dirt build up can occur in the first place.
“I don’t understand how this happens? My entire face gets a washing,” One person said that.
Another commented: “How does this happen? I even sleep in make-up sometimes because I’m lazy and wash in the morning and I still don’t have this?!”
A third said: “People actually walk around with their eyes like this, how?”
“I know a lot of girls with eyelash extensions… N I have never seen this (sic),” added one person, while another simply said: “That’s grim.”
