English term or phrase: wiggle lashes gently
Unter "Expertentipps" folgender Ratschlag:

Wiggle lashes gently to soften the band before application.

Damit das Band elastischer wird, die Wimpern vorsichtig hin- und her biegen?

Über bessere Ideen würde ich mich freuen.

German translation:vorsichtig in beide Richtungen biegen
Explanation:
"Biegen Sie das Band einige Male vorsichtig in beide Richtungen, um es vor dem Anbringen geschmeidiger zu machen."

Ich könnte mir vorstellen, dass hier nicht die einzelnen Wimpern gemeint sind, sondern das ganze Band mit den dort angebrachten Wimpern. Deshalb werden auch nicht die Wimpern gebogen, sondern das Band.
