Tempo Lash Adhesive
Fast-setting. Reliable hold. Built for artists who are still finding their flow.
Tempo is a medium-viscosity lash adhesive formulated for beginner and intermediate lash artists who need a glue that keeps up with them without punishing small mistakes. The 1-2 second set time gives you just enough working window to place fans or classic lashes with confidence, and the 6-8 week hold means your clients leave knowing their lashes will last.
It's not the fastest adhesive on the market, and that's the point. Tempo is designed to give you room to work while still delivering professional retention results.
Who Tempo Is For
Tempo is a great starting point if you're still building speed or working toward consistent placement. The medium viscosity means it's not too thin and runny, and not too thick and stiff. It flows off the jade stone or glue ring cleanly and gives you a predictable bead every time.
It also works well for artists who have been using a faster adhesive and want something with a slightly longer open time, whether that's because of the environment they work in, client sensitivity, or personal preference.
If you're doing classic, hybrid, or volume sets and want a glue that doesn't require perfect conditions to perform, Tempo is worth trying.
Humidity, Temperature, and Why Your Environment Matters
Lash adhesive is cyanoacrylate-based, which means it cures through moisture. Humidity is not your enemy. But the wrong humidity range will make your adhesive behave unpredictably.
Tempo's optimal environment:
- Humidity: 40-70%
- Temperature: 71-79°F (22-26°C)
- Ventilation: Always work in a well-ventilated room
Too dry (below 40%) and the adhesive cures slowly, which can cause weak retention and lashes that fall off prematurely. Too humid (above 70%) and it cures too fast, which leads to shock polymerization, poor bonding, and potential sensitivity for your client.
If you don't already have a hygrometer in your lash room, it's one of the most practical tools you can add to your setup. Knowing your exact humidity helps you troubleshoot retention issues before they become a pattern.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can lash beginners use Tempo? Yes. The 1-2 second set time gives you enough open working time to adjust placement without the lash bonding before you're ready. It's one of the reasons Tempo is recommended for artists who are still developing speed and consistency.
What humidity is best for Tempo? Between 40-70%. If your room tends to run dry, a small humidifier near your workspace can help. If it runs humid, a dehumidifier or air conditioning will bring conditions into range.
How long does a bottle last? Once opened, plan to use Tempo within 4-6 weeks. Proper storage in an airtight container with silica gel packets helps extend the life of the bottle after opening.
Is Tempo safe for sensitive clients? Tempo is latex-free. Like all cyanoacrylate-based adhesives, it is not suitable for clients with known cyanoacrylate allergies. Always perform a patch test for new clients with a history of sensitivities.
