Personally I am a spirit gum fan, I use it to stick on everything. As long as you don't have a latex allergy, you can also use a product called "prosthetic adhesive", it's similar to liquid latex, it's used in theater make-up and can easily be found on-line.

Perhaps that is my problem. I will give it another try once my eyelash glue goes bad, because I just can't see me using it all before it grows feet and runs away.

Thanks for the info.....

It's a little extreme and needs to be done with great care, but if I'm out all night with bindi's on, especially if it's hot and I'm going to dance and sweat, I use fake nail glue to attach bindis or spangles, I have been doing it for years. It's not for sensitive skin though, and NOT close to the eyes, although bridge of the nose seems fine.

The trick is to put your foundation on first, then face powder the area WELL. Put a tiny dot of fake nail glue on the back of the bindi (I use a darning needle) and apply bindi carefully. As soon as the glue is dry, brush away excess powder.

It should stay on all evening, and will peel off at the end of the evening. The more powder you use the easier it will come off, the less powder you use, the harder it is to get off.
