Review (4/5): Eyelash growth serum, update July 2020
I have loved using false eyelashes, and now the individual lash is very popular and looks beautiful when well done, but upkeep is too expensive to include in one’s daily ablutions, because nothing is done to help keep the natural lash root attached. Therefore the lash extensions will fall off with the natural lashes that they are glued to. Maintenance of lash extensions can get expensive.
The idea of applying a growth serum-like material on the base of the target lashes seems to be the best way to go if the method actually works. I looked at many products and reviews and I chose this one to try because the price was reasonable and many of its reviews were positive.
I find that the brush to apply this serum is very, very thin, it takes a bit of practice to draw that “eyeline” of the serum in such a way to get the product only where it needs to go and not have it drip (has high viscosity) or end up on your upper eyelid from blinking (I have hooded eyelids). I am applying this on a clean dry base of lashes at bedtime. I’m a little more than a week into the application and as soon as I can see some significant lash length growth I will report back.
At this point I’m at the stage where I’m beginning to think I see some change; but I’m looking for significant change which would actually be from this method and not just staying off of the false eyelashes for a while, which could generate lashes that are filling back in. Lash enhancement using a growth serum this way that we’re talking about here is additionally the increase of the actual length of the lashes. This means a healthier lash root that stays in its root base (follicle) long enough to grow long naturally. Having long eyelashes could be very pretty even without mascara.
UPDATE:
A lot has happened since I wrote this originally, but I thought I’d update this anyway. I found that the serum did increase the growth of my eyebrows and some what the eyelashes, i’d say 3 to 4 weeks of using it and then I dropped it for quite a while and just began it again a couple-three months ago. The results are not as dramatic as I had hoped but that may be genetics in that my eyebrows and lashes are natively thin anyway. I am OK with these results because I have at least shape definition for my eyebrows and enough lashes to put mascara on, which is an improvement.
