I have used an old product used for repairing running shoes, called shoegoo. I just use a small drop on the tip of a toothpick and hold eyelash in place for a minute. I get the shoegoo in the shoe dept. of Walmart, it comes in a tube like toothpaste.

+1 on jackgrad45 question as I have a few eyelashes that have come away from the eyelid over time.

I was wondering whether it's safe to use a latex based glue on TPE? I use it on fabric and it dries stretchy.

I was recommended "Loctite Super Glue" last year and tried it on my TPE, worked like a charm. The extra long nozzle also helps for precision. Clean the surface first from any powder and makeup, then just put a tiny strain along the eyelash and then immediately hold it in place against the TPE for about a minute. Don't use too much glue! The glue will harden, so that's why it's important to not put on too much, or else it will look bad and can even reach the eye. Also make sure you don't get any glue on your fingers or if you're using tools to hold them in place, or else you're gonna have a bad time when trying to drop them :P

Another, maybe more safe way, to do it is by just gluing half the eyelash first, make sure it's in correct place, then glue the other half. This is probably easier if you have big and/or shaky fingers. I saw this method in a youtube-tutorial somewhere, but have lost the url.

If you'd lite to change lashes or re-glue them later on, it's safe to carefully just pull them off, and then pick off any remaining glue. This can however become a problem if you used too much glue to begin with.

For silicone, I have no idea what's recommended.

I've had luck on my silicone doll with KISS brand Strip Lash Adhesive. You can find it in any cosmetics section. Goes on white, dries clear. Not as strong as super glue but holds well after it sets and will wash off with makeup remover or warm soap and water if you don't want something permanent. The cap has a thin applicator brush making it easy to apply.
