Review (3/5): So far, nothing to write home about.
I am a self imposed victim of over plucking my brows, and of my lashes seeming to become shorter and more sparse as I'm aging.
I've been wanting to try some of the many lash growth serums for a long time. The first thing I tried was Castor Oil. It seemed to help my lashes grow, and look a bit thicker. I then got this LashRevive serum, and another serum at the same time. I used LashRevive on my right lashes and brow, and the other brand on the left lashes and brow. I will only be discussing results for the right eye, with the LashRevive serum in this review.
I noticed a lot of wonderful reviews for this product, lots of pictures of the bottle, but no before and after pictures.
I received my product on the 11th of June, and today is June 25th, so I have been using this product consistently for 2 weeks.
First for the lashes. I am including a picture of before and after so you can judge for yourselves. The left side is before, right side is after. I really see little difference. When I look in the mirror, I feel as though they are more noticeable, maybe a tiny bit thicker, or darker, but not by much. But as you can see, the picture reflects none of that. Maybe it's just wishful thinking. I can say that on my lower lashes, mostly toward the inner corner, I have seen growth. They are much longer. It's weird that they are only on the inside though. I do not have before/after pictures of that, as I was not expecting this to effect the lower lashes.
On to the brows. I can see a difference in my brow. It appears fuller to me. I'm a natural blonde, so the newest hairs that are growing in are very light, almost white blonde, and difficult to see in the included picture, but I do believe you can see a tiny bit of a difference. Nothing dramatic. It's enough for me to continue to use it for my brows. Again, before picture on the left, after on the right. Judge for yourselves.
Application was super easy. It's a thick, milky consistency, and has a nice large applicator brush to easily cover the lashes and brow area quickly. I experienced no irritation to the skin, or to the eye. Never felt any sort of sting or burn at all. I did have gunk in the corners of my eye in the morning, and weird white stringy stuff in my lashes. Easy enough to remove when I washed my face in the morning. I did notice what seemed like more lashes than normal actually fall out, in the beginning. Maybe it was only because I was paying more attention to my lashes though. It was about 2-3 per day. Obviously not enough to be noticeable as you can see in the before/after pic.
I'm confused with this product. I did not see enough results to give this 4 or 5 stars. But saw enough of a result on the brow to think (hope) that I may get better results with continued use, so I did not give it just 1 star. I am going to continue to use this product until I run out, and I will update this review with any positive/negative results.
I received this product for free in exchange for my review. I hope this was helpful for you.
