you can't clean mac's lashes cause they are real hair, and if you get them wet, they loose the curl. as long as you don't put mascara on them, you can reuse them. and without mascara on them, you don't need to worry about cleaning them. carefully remove the old glue, put them back in the container to maintain their shape, and reapply like new. the number of uses depends on the style as well. i can get around 8-10 uses out of my #3s, but i'm lucky if i can get 2 uses out of #36. when the hairs are more spread out, the band has more of a tendancy to kink, and when this happens, you really can't use them again without them looking funny. if it kinks, i cut them at the kink and use them as half lashes, which gives me 2 different sets of halves. in order to get more uses out of your lashes, you need to keep use care when applying, removing, storing, keep them dry, and don't apply mascara directly to the lashes. cleaning may be different based on the brand of lashes you use.
