How long should a patch test of an eyelash adhesive be left on?

12 hours
24 hours
36 hours
48 hours

The correct answer is: 24 hours

The recommended duration for conducting a patch test with eyelash adhesive is 24 hours. This timeframe is essential for accurately assessing whether an individual will experience any adverse reactions to the adhesive. By applying the adhesive and leaving it on for an entire day, you allow sufficient time to observe any potential signs of irritation or allergic reaction. This period is particularly important in the context of eyelashes, as the area around the eyes is sensitive, and reactions can vary widely among individuals. A patch test provides a safety measure, ensuring that before a full application is done, any negative responses can be identified, thus protecting the client's health and comfort during the procedure.
