Any tried?

Silicone flow glue is messy... annoying to deal with at times.. Each time switch out eyes, the lashes tend to come off little by little.

Yes it works fine, but be careful. A tiny drop on the tip of a toothpick is a good way.

I bought my silicone girl custom plastic eyelids from MannequinFan (I believe you can buy them now through Grim's Doll Accessories). They were relatively cheap, but in addition to letting my doll close her eyes, they also have a nice little "ledge" to which you can glue on eyelashes using eyelash glue. The eyelashes last for weeks, then it's easy to change them when they wear out.

small cat, try using a RTV (Room Temperature Vulcanizing) silicone adhesive. Silpoxy, GEII etc. These are not the "flowable" type. Also make sure everything is cleaned with acetone as well. As lucent said a toothpick works well. A tip I got from dodgeman: hold the lash in place with pins over and under it. It looks awful like the poor gal is having acupuncture but it WORKS! Line her cleaned eye lid with pins over and under where the lash is to go creating a channel to insert the lash using tweezers.
