The video, posted on the account ' desssnz,' shows the grandmother sporting a thick set of lashes, attempting to soak them off with little success.
Despite her efforts, the glue seemed to hold firm, and by the end of the video, while she appeared to begin peeling them off, the lashes were still stubbornly attached.
Since being shared on 19 May, the video has gone viral, amassing 9.3 million views and prompting 1,152 comments from concerned and amused viewers alike.
One commenter questioned: 'Did they use nail glue?' while another speculated: 'This is obviously gorilla glue.'
A professional lash technician chimed in with a warning: 'Please go to a lash tech salon near you for a lash removal, so you don't damage your natural lashes - that's not gonna come off.'
Another viewer shared their own experience: 'This happened to me.
'It was so PAINFUL and nothing worked, I had to pull them out which took my real lashes, and my eyes were so bald.
'Nail salons really need to stop trying to do lashes.'

The 4 terrifying hidden dangers of eyelash extensions - from lash mites to cornea erosion to cancer-causing
Unlike the ' clean girl aesthetic ' trend, a glow-down embraces the philosophy of 'less is more,' focusing on enhancing natural beauty rather than masking it.
The trend sees the departure of long hair extensions, colourful fake nails, and mega lashes, replaced by a focus on skincare and achieving a youthful, radiant look.
Before her transformation, Kacie sported heavy foundation, bright orange tan, thick eyelash extensions, bold eyebrows, and a plump pout.
Reflecting on her past style, Kacie - who shares her journey on TikTok under the username @ kaciecachiax - admitted she had 'become so obsessed with looking fake.'

Now, Kacie has embraced a more natural look, ditching the cakey foundation and oversized lashes.

Lash expert reveals mistakes that can harm your eyes
A BEAUTY expert Nouveau Lashes, part of the HD Brows brand, has revealed what habits could be not only damaging your health, but your beauty.
1. Rubbing your eyes
Debbie Law, International Lash Trainer, said: 'Whilst rubbing your eyes could seem pretty harmless, rubbing them too hard can lead to thinning of the cornea, cause blood vessels to break and result in bloodshot eyes and dark under eyes.'
2. Overuse of extensions
Be wary that using them too often can lead to eye infection, allergic reactions and damage to your natural lashes.
3. Wearing mascara too often
Debbie said: 'Most of the damage of wearing mascara lies in the removal process, which is why using mascara every single day can cause lash breakage, as well as making the makeup removal process more difficult."
4. Ripping false lashes off
This can lead to not only losing your lashes, but damaging the hair follicles so they don't grow back.
