It could be the latex in the glue, as quite a few people are sensitive to latex. See your doctor and get it checked out. Also, you are putting things near your eyes, which is dangerous anyway as it is such a sensitive area so this could be why you have also reacted to the eye tinting product.

the glue is most likely made of latex, as it is the most effective glue for use near the eyes that won't burn the eyes... so i would say you have a latex allergy
