The shelf life of a lash adhesive is 6 months unopened. If you store the glue properly it can last up to 8 months. Keep unopened glues in the fridge. However never put an opened glue back in the fridge. If you can’t keep your unopened adhesives in the fridge, then store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
Once the glue is opened it is good for at least 1 month providing you keep it in good condition. Again, store the glue in a cool, dry place. Avoid humidity and moisture (and fridges!) getting to the glue. This will cause it to lose its effectiveness. It’s recommended to clean around the glue nozzle with remover.
Store your primer away from your glue. The primer can dry the glue out when kept in the same place.
