Eye Lash Growth

[parkmin90]

I don't know if anyone has heard about this... but supposedly extra virgin olive oil can help eye lash grow?

^ Heard of it before. I think it's a myth though, along with castor oil, petroleum jelly....

I think those things are great lash conditioners. Meaning that if you use them, they will help keep your lashes moisturized and prevent lash breakage and fallout. Which in turn will result in thicker lashes and as the lashes grow, they will break less which will give the appearance of longer lashes.

^ Oh I see. So it doesn't have a direct effect, more like for care and maintenance. Thanks!

I've been losing my eyelashes lately and I can't figure out why. I stopped rubbing my eyes and using mascara, but the problem still persists. It's been quite damaging to my self-esteem and I wonder if eyelash loss can be attributed to hormonal imbalances. Can anyone weigh in on this?

so.. carepost n latisse n other products.. if u stop using them ur length n thickness disappears??

^ Yes, if you stop using the product, eventually your eyelashes will return to normal. It does take a while, though.

Btw, I'm still on my first bottle of Latisse - it's lasted something like 6 months. I use it sparingly but everyday. I remember reading somewhere that at about 4 months some people have noticed eyelash thinning, but mine have stayed long the whole time thus far. I still love it!

Some of it could be due to the winter. I believe our hair sheds more in the winter.

But I would go see a doctor. Maybe Latisse can help you. Also, try rubbing a little olive oil or castor oil on your lashes before bed. This will condition them.

I had the same thing, because I use alot of mascara.

Lately I've been using Beauty Society's Enormous Lash, it is quiet expensive and it's only been twelves days, but I have to say that I am seeing results, new growth in the bare spots and all. I will keep using and see how it goes!
