Flutterstop FAQ

Flutterstop is an advanced eyelid stabilisation system designed to support precision in professional lash application. It features a discreet weighted metal disk securely affixed to the inner surface of the gel pad to help minimise involuntary eyelid movement during detailed lash work.

Engineered with intention and purpose-led design, Flutterstop enhances application
stability, supports procedural control, and contributes to a calmer, more consistent service environment, elevating professional standards in modern lash practice.

For Lash Artists:
Flutterstop makes gentle, controlled contact with the closed eyelid during application. The weighted metal disk, securely affixed to the inner surface of the gel pad, helps minimise involuntary eyelid fluttering and micro eye opening, promoting greater precision in isolation, improved placement consistency, and enhanced procedural flow.

For The Wearer:
Flutterstop is designed to feel secure and comfortable on the eyelid. By helping to minimise small, involuntary eyelid movements, it promotes a calmer, more restful experience, allowing your eyes to remain softly and comfortably closed during your lash appointment.

Yes. Flutterstop is designed for multiple uses when cleaned according to the recommended cleaning protocol. For optimal performance and hygiene, replacement is recommended after approximately 25 uses per set, depending on handling and care.

After each use, remove the weighted metal disc from the Flutterstop Gel Pads.
Apply Flutterstop Wash to both the Gel Pads and metal disc and gently clean away any visible debris.

Allow the Gel Pads and metal disc to remain in contact with Flutterstop Wash for 3 minutes, then rinse thoroughly with fresh water until no wash residue remains.

Allow both components to air dry completely, with the sticky side of the Gel Pads facing upward.
Once dry, spray the Gel Pads and metal disc with 0.02% hypochlorous acid spray and allow them to dry completely.
Once fully dry, replace the metal disc and return the Gel Pads to their case for storage.

Important: Do not soak Flutterstop in Barbicide or isopropyl alcohol, expose it to high heat, or use ultrasonic cleaning systems. Always follow applicable local hygiene requirements and salon protocols.
CAUTION: DO NOT SOAK IN BARBICIDE.

No. Flutterstop is not supplied sterile and is not a sterile medical device. It is a professional lash application support tool intended for use on closed eyelids.

No. Flutterstop is not adhesive backed. The medical grade silicone surface has a natural tack that allows it to remain positioned during application without glue, tape, or residue.

Yes. Flutterstop is individually packaged, making it suitable for professional retail within salon environments.

Many salons choose to retail Flutterstop to clients who prefer a dedicated, personal-use device for their own appointments. Retailing supports:
• Personalised hygiene management
• Enhanced client confidence and comfort
• Added privacy and relaxation during treatments
• A premium, individualised service upgrade

Retailing Flutterstop also provides a professional revenue opportunity for salons while reinforcing high standards of care and a commitment to elevating professional service standards.

No. Flutterstop is designed to enhance application conditions by helping reduce preventable eyelid movement during treatment. It supports professional technique and precision, but it does not replace skill, training, or proper lash application standards.

Yes. Prolong Lash Cleanser can be used to clean Flutterstop Gel Pads, helping to remove oils, makeup and debris between uses.
Prolong Lash Cleanser has passed microbiological preservative challenge testing, demonstrating that introduced microorganisms are controlled under the specified test conditions.
When cleaning Flutterstop, apply the cleanser to the Gel Pads and metal disc, clean away visible debris and allow the cleanser to remain in contact for 3 minutes. Rinse thoroughly with fresh water until no cleanser residue remains, then allow both components to air dry completely before completing the recommended 0.02% hypochlorous acid spray step.

Yes. 70% isopropyl alcohol may be applied as a light mist to Flutterstop Gel Pads, then allowed to air dry completely.

Do not soak or submerge Flutterstop in isopropyl alcohol, as prolonged exposure may affect the materials and performance of the Gel Pads.

For routine cleaning between uses, follow the recommended Flutterstop cleaning process using Flutterstop Wash and 0.02% hypochlorous acid (HOCl) spray.

Yes. 0.02% hypochlorous acid mist is recommended as the final step in the Flutterstop cleaning process.
After cleaning the Gel Pads and metal disc with Flutterstop Wash, rinsing thoroughly and allowing them to air dry completely, spray both components with 0.02% hypochlorous acid mist and allow them to dry fully.
Once completely dry, replace the metal disc and return the Gel Pads to their case for storage.
Hypochlorous acid mist should be used as the final step and does not replace cleaning with Flutterstop Wash to remove oils, makeup and visible debris.

The weighted disk is designed to introduce a subtle, stabilising presence on the closed eyelid. The additional gentle contact and cooling sensation of the metal surface can contribute to a feeling of calm and stillness for many clients.
The weight itself is minimal and does not force the eyelid to remain closed. Rather, it supports natural relaxation and helps reduce small, involuntary eyelid movements during treatment.

Yes. The weighted metal disk is securely affixed to the inner surface of the gel pad during manufacturing. It is not designed to be removed, repositioned, or adjusted during normal use.

The weighted metal disk is secured to the inner surface of the pad. If separation or structural compromise occurs due to wear, handling, or damage, the product should be discontinued and replaced. The disk itself can be safely removed and disposed of appropriately.

For routine cleaning between uses, we recommend Flutterstop Wash followed by a 0.02% hypochlorous acid (HOCl) mist as the final step.
Prolong Lash Cleanser can also be used to clean the Gel Pads and metal disc, and 70% isopropyl alcohol may be used as a light mist spray.
Do not soak Flutterstop in isopropyl alcohol or Barbicide, expose it to high heat, or use ultrasonic cleaning systems.

When used and cleaned according to the recommended protocol, each set is designed to withstand 25 or more professional applications.

Based on the manufacturer’s guidance for the medical-grade material used, 25 uses per set is recommended.

For the average lash client, one case contains two sets, providing approximately 50 or more total uses. For clients attending regular fills, this can comfortably last well over a year, depending on handling, cleaning, and storage practices.

With normal use, the surface may gradually appear less glossy over time. This is expected wear.

If the pad is pulled, stretched, or handled aggressively beyond its intended use, small areas of silicone may lift or detach.

If the pad no longer maintains consistent placement or adhesion during application, this indicates it is time to replace the set.

Durability validation has been performed in accordance with manufacturer material specifications and repeated cleaning cycle assessment. Formal third-party lifecycle certification reports have not been conducted.

Yes. Lifecycle expectations are based on the manufacturer’s material performance
guidance for the medical-grade silicone used.

Yes. The product has undergone repeated cleaning cycle assessment under the recommended cleaning protocol.

The recommended maximum usage per set is approximately 25 applications, based on the manufacturer’s guidance for this medical-grade silicone material, which is also used in other cosmetic skin-contact applications.
