Review (5/5): What they say is true -- this stuff works!
I've been using this product for about 17 days now. To be honest, I haven't noticed too much of a difference. But then again, I don't really pay much attention to my eyelashes. I just decided to try this stuff for fun. So, today at lunch, my boyfriend of 10 years suddenly looked at me and said, "Are you wearing false eyelashes? They really look long! I've never seen them that long before. They look great!" Of course, I sat there with my mouth open, totally stunned. I thought that it must be a coincidence . . . maybe I put on more mascara than usual, or maybe he just happened to notice my eyelashes for the first time, etc. Then I thought that he's never said one thing about my eyelashes in the 10 years we've been together. Now that's either a really spooky coincidence or maybe, just maybe, this stuff actually works. I still think it's too early to tell and I continue to be skeptical at this point, but I thought I would at least put it out there for those who are considering this product. I'm not yet giving it my full endorsement because the verdict is still out, but I was just flabbergasted and stunned that I received such a comment after using this product for a little under 3 weeks. Is that crazy or what?!
UPDATE
This stuff definitely works. My eyelashes are so long that it's unbelievable. I was recently in a Vegas casino and the blackjack dealer at our table suddenly asked me, "Are those your real eyelashes?" I am so pleased with the results. However, I don't recommend using this on your lower lashes (unless you really want them to be just as long as your upper lashes. I tried this and they were getting way too long to look natural). I think this is a great alternative to purchasing an expensive brand name product that requires a prescription. Two months later, I'm still on my first tube (applying it one time per day) and I believe this tube will probably last me another two months. I've never experienced any of the irritation or redness that others have, but I did notice that my eyes were a little itchy the following morning. I do recommend this product and I'm so excited to continue using it and seeing the results. FYI -- a cheaper alternative that works just as well is Rapid Lash. I've since switched to Rapid Lash because I can get about three tubes of that product for the price of one tube of Renew Lash.
