The only proven thing to grow lashes is Latisse, which is only available my prescription. Everything else is just a placebo effect and/or is dangerous to the eye as it can clog pores and the tear duct (Vaseline being an example).

I tried a product called LASH EM from a drug store, same thing as Latisse basically, it actually worked for me :)

I agree with alexis. your best bet is to get a lengthening mascara! maybe one with little fibers on it which make your lashes appear longer (:

Your eyelashes shed and regrow every 28-32 days. Latisse is the only thing "proven" to work because it is the only thing doctors can make money off of. I've seen this trend a lot, one person says it and the rest repeat it without actually doing research. They blindly follow pretty much. The leading active ingredient in Latisse is bimatoprost, which is found in other products too. There are bimatoprost eyedrops (prescription), revitalash, Jan Marini serum, xtremelashes lash and brow fortifier (personal favorite) and a few more reputable ones that use the same ingredients in different quantities, which takes longer but helps to aide some of the side affect you get with the higher dosage in Latisse.

Your eyelashes are hair, and like any other hair can only grow to its fullest potential when at its healthiest. Use an easy penetrative oil such as jojoba or coconut oil, scoop some or pour some out into a separate container to avoid contamination, and apply with a disposable spoolie being sure not to double dip. Cleanliness is very important when dealing with the eyes. NEVER USE VASELINE. I have a whole freacking paragraph on that ask around 😉

Also, avoid mascara. Please I can't stress this enough girl you're suffocating your lashes!! Try and avoid it as much as possible with tight lining and what not. It's like constantly wearing heavy product in your hair- no good. When you do wear it, use an oil based remover to GENTLY remove is as soon as possible. Do not scrub at your lashes,
You shouldn't rip them out. There are alternative options such as lash extensions, hut you need to go to a reputable technician (not just a reputable salon, the technician but be GOOD specifically) Eyelash extensions can actually benefit your lashes when applied properly! I can write you quite a bit of information on those as well if you're interested.

Also would like to add to my novel lol! That I don't necessarily encourage using much growth products until last resort, in any case.

Agree with the rest lol.

I wanna say 100-150 for a full set and 50-70 for a fill as your lash cycle happens. Look into reviews and ask them a lot of questions for sure. Such as what kind of glue they use, what kind of lashes they use, ask them what sizes they would use on your lashes and the thicknesses etc. be sure to do your own research beforehand on what your lashes need and make sure they are properly educated.

I will say Latisse is amazing. I've been really happy so far. It's pricey, but worth it it. It did take 2 months to see substantial results.

I use an olay serum for lashes and they look longer and thicker but that very well could be bc they are coated with the serum.

Well I was going to say that I use Vaseline and it works but after reading all this maybe I should stop.
