I have used lash serums for years. Starting out I tried the cheapest ones and moved up through the price tags, looking for better results. The more money I paid, the better my lashes got. Eventually, I had the longest, strongest, thickest lashes I’ve ever had. I was delighted with the results!! I noticed my eyes becoming a bit more bloodshot than normal - but on bad days I just used some eye drops! I saw the skin around my eyes turning pinky/red, but I just covered that with concealer. Nothing was going to stop me from having these lovely lashes!! Over the years this got more & more noticeable. To the point where people would comment about how sore my eyes looked, but I just made excuses and continued. Then, the eye watering started. And it didn’t stop. My eyes were red, watering all day like I was crying, so I went to the chemist and got some treatment. No difference. My eyes were PAINFUL. I could no longer wear any makeup and the constant tearing had put sores round the edges of my eyes. I was thinking up excuses not to go into work... One day, when finally I could take no more of this torture, I took a x20 mag mirror and looked at my eyes. Then i saw them. I had grown like a short, sharp, stubby second row of lashes on the inside of my eyelids that were rubbing on the surface of my eyes, day & night. Scratching & scraping at my eyeballs with every blink. I was HORRIFIED!! I had no option, I tweezed them all out there and then!!! I stopped using my serum. My eyes are no longer bloodshot, watering, sore or red-rimmed. My eyes have recovered with no real lasting damage, thankfully. I knew all along that the serum was the cause of my problem, but I had no idea WHAT the problem was!!!!!! I was addicted I suppose.

As someone who suffers from anxiety which makes me pick at my eyelashes and often rip them out, products like these have quite literally saved my eyes and eyelashes. While the risks mentioned in this video are possible, I have personally never experienced any of them. I have used revitalash for nearly 2 years now and it has strengthened my eyelashes immensely, helped them grow back quicker, and the added length was truly just a bonus. Several of my friends noticed how much it was helping me and have started using other products with great success and no side effects. It’s so important to consult with your doctors first when considering anything that is claiming to alter anything about your body but there are risks associated with everything. If you notice any of these changes or concerns just stop using immediately! Other than that if you’re curious about them I would recommend trying. Loved this video though to help inform people of what to look out for!

The bottom Lash will get treated from product on the upper li led when you sleep. Also, I’ve found I only need it twice a week but I bet once a week works also. (I’ve used revitalsh. Grandelash and latisse. I prefer Latisse because of the higher quality control and pharmaceutical testing, and it doesn’t have unnecessary ingredients that the knockoffs have, but it’s pricier and you have to get it from a doctor/medical office.

After using eye lash serums for a couple years, I had to stop in the beginning of the year. I had a little bit of the "red eyeliner" look every now and then but I felt like it was worth it for the long lashes. My eyes would also get so irritated, they were completely bloodshot with the red rings around my eyes. It would usually go away the next day and it happened a couple times in the winter time. I was in denial that it was from the serums and blamed it on my allergies, dryness of winter, rubbing my eyes etc.... But then I started to get little white bumps on my lash line. Again, I was in denial, thought that bacteria must have gotten into the serum or makeup. So I gave myself a break for a couple weeks, bought a new tube of serum and got new makeup. When I started using the serum again, the little bumps came back. That's when I finally stopped using eyelash serums I should have stopped using eyelash serums a long time ago!

Maria Alvarez In order to get rid of dark circles you need to figure out what type of dark circles you have so you can treat them properly. You can tell by the colour, for example if you have a purple tint to your dark circles those are caused my vaso-dilation which can be reduced by restricting the blood vessels so using caffeine based eye creams can help (the ordinary caffeine drops are really good). However if your dark circles are brown that’s probably hyper pigmentation and its often permanent. I’d recommend you visit a dermatologist.

That and crying a lot, don’t have any research but I think something in tears makes your lashes grow longer, cause they’re there to protect your eyes and if you get something in your eyes your eyes water and so if your lashes grow you won’t get stuff in your eyes.

As soon as I stop using it, it went away right away. It worked at first but slowly over time it starts to irritate your eyes more and then it makes your lashes grow very uneven. I will not try again. Thanks for the video it was very helpful!

I do lash lifts and semi permanent lashes in my job. I love the results of both but I can say that I see the adverse effects of lash lifts. Firstly getting it done once in a while is fine they look great. But when I see frequent lash lift clients come in for semi permanent lashes I use magnifying goggles. I can often see under a magnification that these clients have lots of snapped lashes that stop before the lash naturally tapers. I don’t notice this with the semi permanent but I do hear a lot of people say they feel their lashes have thinned not clients but other colleagues who’ve tried them. I personally haven’t noticed this but my lashes aren’t great naturally anyway. Anyway to summarise I personally don’t mind the odd lash lift but I wouldn’t get it done constantly even when leaving the 8-10 week gap you should leave in between x

@@infairvarona so it can over process either because it’s been processed previously or because it’s on too long/ its too strong for your lashes. Unfortunately one of the reasons I don’t like doing lash lifts as a lash tech is cause one persons lashes can be super tolerant and you barely get a lift and another persons can be weaker and over process. For example I’m ginger and redheads tend to have stronger more coarse hairs so mine don’t overprocess and the solution needs to be on longer to get a decent lift, but someone who’s got fine hair could get over processed much quicker & you can’t always tell what clients lashes will do which. I love the results you can get, and I would get it occasionally. And same with brow lamination I was doing that on myself all the time because I love the results and I was definitely shedding hairs faster from it. X

A bit off topic - but I had lash extensions for about 2 years solid - and it's the worst thing I ever did to my lashes. I stopped using them due to increasing irritation to the glue and lashes alike - it didn't seem to matter what type or who did it - I developed blepharitis and peri-orbital edema and redness that just worstened. It took about 8 months for my lashes to appear normal again after discontinuing and to this day, my lash growth cycle seems to be stunted - I lose baby lashes quite often (they fall out before they even mature), and my lashes are nowhere near as dense and long as they once were. Never again! Due to my eye sensitivity, I refuse to put anything else near that lash line except good old face fash and whatever moisturizer makes it's way to my pores.

This Spring I took a trusted KZbinr’s recommendation on a prostaglandin type eyelash serum, without doing my research on over the counter products. I used serum for about a month (stopped using it about 3 months ago), I think it has damaged my tear duct on one eye. Oddly I now have random tearing (not cute) but overall my eye feels a bit dry and all these months later the tear duct is still tender. Don’t let this happen to you.

Never used the cosmetic off the shelf serums. I have happily used Latisse off/on for the past 8 years with success and the only side effect of upper lid darkening but to me it's no big deal because I cover it with eyeliner or shadow. Also I benefit from the fact that I don't have blue or green eyes which seem to be the ones most likely to suffer eye discoloration. Overall for ME the Latisse is a worthwhile lash enhancement product. Yes you need a prescription and yes it's not cheap but I get Good RX coupons which bring the drops down to about $65. Also I don't use it all the time. I will use it for a week or two and when I see positive length growth and darkness I drop off for a week or two and then I start again. I also don't use their applicators because they use up too much product that only gets wasted. I use an eyeliner brush and only dispense what I need so a bottle lasts me for a good 4-6 months.

Hi Sophia, I’m currently using castor oil and don’t have problems with blurry vision. What I’ve found works is to use only one drop to cover all lash and eyebrow hairs, so there won’t be a lot of excess that can seep into your eyes. Rub it gently along your lash line with a finger. Do this right before bed, and wash the eye area with warm water in the morning. I’ve not had blurry vision since I started doing this.

Hi! I have used castor oil before bed time on my brows and lashes (because during the day it would get into my eyes and blur my vision, because when you blink, your lashes can touch the waterline sometimes, depends on your eyes) and after a while I noticed a rash under my eyes, I think it was fungal acne, I have had it before and I think the oil just boosted it to where it popped up again.. The experience with the oil was very pleasant until that happened. So be very careful if you have had experience with (fungal) acne because it might boost something that wasn’t there before or that was almost about to pop up. Now I just use it for the ends of my hair. I would overall not recommend oil on your eyes/lashes.. or just use as little as you can. I have a pretty detailed/planned skin care routine and I think the oil just was kinda gimmicky/a step too far or something. Don’t know if it really helped. Maybe just buy a very small amount/tiny bottle and use it on the ends of your hair if you decide it doesn’t work.

I had laser surgery for eyes years ago and the side effect is dry eyes. So that was an existing issue before I tried a lash serum. I also live in a dry climate where the sale of moisturizing eye drops is high. Due to menopause my eye lashes were thinning to the point of bare patches so it is hard to have the protective benefit of eyelashes (and eyebrows for that matter) when you are losing them. I started using Rapid Lash four years ago to see if I could restore my lashes and found it does work to encourage lash (and eyebrow) growth. It doesn't give you masses of lashes (in other words more than you already have) but encourages enough to fill in bare spots, which is all I want. I have not had any issues nor discolouration. I checked the ingredient list and cannot find anything that appears as a prostaglandin analog compound. I have annual check ups with my Opthamologist who says my eyes are healthy. Having said all this I know there are counterfeit versions of this product so it bears mentioning to be careful where you buy it. Also, it may be that you have sensitive eyes and cannot tolerate it.
@franziskani11 ай бұрын
Any prostaglandin analog has "prost" in the name. These serums are often marketed as "hormon free" - because the natural hormone prostaglandin is not in them. Maybe (some) of the artificial analogs are not quite as problematic - and maybe they are. The most scary thing: sometimes the negative side effects (iris discoloration, sunken eye do not vanish at all - not even after months after use of serum has stopped). It's a bummer, because I would have liked to use one.

Mascara especially the waterproof ones can ruin your lashes lol

I have used Bimataprost (Latisse generic) for over 2 years. I had narrow-angle glaucoma and was prescribed these drops for my medical condition, but after the surgery a year ago I continue to use the serum. (My ophthalmologist writes me the prescription.) I have never had any problem at all with negative side effects; however, I am very careful to ONLY put one drop (for BOTH eyes) on the lashes ONLY and not directly on the skin before going to bed. I also do not apply it to the lower lashes because it naturally transfers when I sleep. The placement of the Bimataprost is key for my particular case.

Just using coconut oil to remove my waterproof mascara has helped make my lashes become a lot longer.

as long as you only apply it to your lid, you should be fine. it causes dark pigmentation to the skin when you apply under your eye and not where your lashes are. and it may change eye color if you are getting it in your eye. most of the time, they are safe as long as you are using them safely.

I apply to my top lid only, never the lower. I now have darkness above and below my eyes, and considering stopping Latisse.

It also caused me to have styes back to back, when I wash my face and eyes at least twice a day, everyday.

I’m also experiencing floaters. Floaters is why I began to investigate Latisse further. No one has reported online however, I’ve seen the relation between the hyperpigmentation and the styes with Latisse.
