I’ve considered a lash serum, but when I did my research and read about the side effects, I decided my lashes were ok as is.

[@IntoBlackHouse]

Even though Dr Dray doesn’t support using castor oil on lashes for growth, I still do it lol. I honestly do feel like it makes somewhat of a difference. If you look up Jennifer Meyer here on KZbin she has several videos about using castor oil on her lashes for years. Of course I don’t know how long they were originally, but they almost look like false eyelashes now.

[@user-ry8nt3td4c]

I am scared of a false silk lashes...i was thinking of that, but then I decide to buy nice mascara and not to risk

[@IntoBlackHouse]

Ана Буљешевић wearing false eyelashes isn’t bad for your lashes unless you wear them every single day and don’t remove them gently.

[@IntoBlackHouse]

Melissa • 7 days ago that’s a good idea it will condition them as well as clean them. Shiseido also sells camellia oil too.

[@user-ry8nt3td4c]

[@pinkpeony5302]

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.

I used GrandeLash for a while and my eyelashes looked amazing. I experienced darkening eye circles, red eyes (sometimes) and a sunken in eye look. I continued using it until my eye doctor said I had clogged oil glands. I stopped using it immediately and the symptoms disappeared. A year later got checked up on again. No clogged glands. Its not worth it, trust me. Your health is so much more than the way you look.

I’ve never clicked a notification so quickly, nor been so heartbroken. 😭 GrandeLash has given me the lashes of my dreams. 💯 %.

Even when you’re crushing our dreams and breaking our hearts. 💔😭

[@adminuser7221]

How are you using it, AM or Pm? And were you using it on your lower lashes too?

[@amycortez3289]

Admin User I was using it PM, upper lids only. I may have been using too much; over the past week I’ve taken care to wipe the excess from the applicator back onto the rim of the tube (if that makes sense) instead of just glooping it on and the darkness on my lids seems to be getting better. Tbh, Dr. Dray scared me. Lol. I love my results but I don’t want dark, sunken eyes. I’m using GrandeLash + GrandeBrow to help replace hair I’ve lost to an autoimmune disease. But what good will it do to have luscious brows & lashes if my eyes become all sunken and ghastly?😂😭😂😭

[@vanessamichelle268]

I’ve used it too and noticed darkening around my lash line that almost looked bruised when I only used it about 2 months. I used it AM/PM everyday. I agree it works well but definitely not necessary considering the risk.

[@rawveganmangolover]

I started worrying about using lash serum too. I switched to popping on 2-3 individual little lash fans. It’s really pretty, gives that effect, and I feel safer. Maybe a new dream?😊

[@shannens5372]

Amy Cortez I tried grande lash for a few days and after the third day my eyelids got so dark!!! I was like wth! I realized it must be from the serum and sure enough! Once I stopped using it my eyes went back to normal in a few days. I know if you use too much it can cause the darkness....so maybe try every other night and just a little bit to avoid the darkness. I just stopped using it and started using false lashes lol

Otherwise I’ve not had any other side effects personally except nice long lashes where I used to have stubs. I acknowledge, watch for and accept the risks.

Please give us the tea Dr Dray! 💕

Yes! I hope she does one on lash lifts since I've been having mine done with "keratin" on them but I dont really see a change when the perm is gone and my lashes actually seem weaker so I stopped. 😔

[@rynsoo4310]

I got them once. It did look really good while also feeling so natural. However, it is very expensive for the length of time the effect lasts

[@beautybrief114]

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]

@@beautybrief114 thank you for this! I was wondering if it would be better to just use an eyelash curler, would it be less harmful than getting it lifted or having falsies put in? Also, I used to get my lashes lifted and the first time was great and I would wait months before having them done again. However, I went in the last time, my lashes seemed "crispy" and a lot fell out and it was curled differently than the first time, and it looked very unflattering. I dont know if the technician left it in too long but after that, I didnt go back.

[@beautybrief114]

@@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

[@JMankinDesign]

Hi Dr. Dray, I really appreciate you addressing this topic. I started using Babelash serum (nightly) around 4 - 5 months ago and have had great results with no side effects so far. Admittedly, I was a bit nervous about trying this type of product. At 62 my lashes had become pretty sparse and now they have lengthened and thickened so well that when I wear mascara, some friends have asked if they are false. Although I'd hate to lose the benefits of this, I will seriously consider your wise council. Thanks so much!

[@faithadamson4489]

Ive heard that once you are happy with your results you just just use the serum one a week and that maintains the lashes and you become less susceptible to irritation and such over time 🤷🏽‍♀️

[@CarolCattle]

I use Neulash and other than occasional irritation when I started, see no adverse reactions. My 63 year old lashes are long & curled now.... the serum seems to curl them as well. My previous lashes would best be described as sparse, with bald patches.

I tried Revitalash for the first time last year and right away wherever I put the serum by the next morning was all purple and swollen I wasn’t sure what was going on at the time but obviously when I stopped using it (which was only after a few more uses) the discoloration and the swelling went away. I spent ALOT of money on that stuff too 😩 I wanted it to work so bad but definitely not worth the side effects from it and I could only imagine what would’ve happened if I continued use!

No problems with Latisse. I have been using it for several years; it provides major lengthening, to the point where I have to trim one lash (in the middle) which gets super long. With Latisse, you only need it once a week to maintain the original eyelash growth.

Once I tinted my lashes and from that moment on, my lids got so sensitive and irritated and could no longer tolerate the lash serum. I waited over 5 years, used Latisse and my eyes blew up! I can no longer use tint nor grow serum due to extreme sensitivity!

[@caseythomas5447]

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!

I've always wondered about the long term side effects of these lash serums and have never trusted the claims. I always see beauty and fashion bloggers saying they use these things on their lashes. I definitely won't be using them. Thank you for sharing this!

[@terryferlita6162]

Have been using Lash Boost and i definitely have the red eyeliner effect on my lower lash line, I wondered if it was related - thank you!

[@tditty0143]

I have been using Grande lash for less than a month now and started to notice the blurred vision, I am definitely taking it back to Sephora. Thanks for the thorough breakdown on the side effects and confirming my hunch!

[@alinastobiecka9400]

did the blurry vision stop??

[@rebeccaoconnor877]

Hi Tanya, did your vision return to normal?

[@luticino3094]

Thank you for all the information in this video, doctor. I’ve used Latisse several times in the past and it did make my lashes longer, however, my eyelids were always a bit itchy. At this point, I’d rather pass on the product and just rely on a quality mascara for the eyelash enhancement factor.

[@roseannegagliardi5079]

Hi dr. Dray. Hope you are doing well.. your hair looks beautiful! Stunning!

[@Bonbon-zl4eb]

I used the Grande Lash Serum for a long time but had to stop!. My eyelids became very red and sore with little rosacea bumps along my lash line that were very sore. 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!

[@jamanewman3157]

Bonnie Hingtgen yep! I used that for two years and it’s in the trash I got most of those side effects and it’s not fun... and you’re right after so long your lashes quit growing anyway then the problems start! Crazy!

[@kristamarie3856]

jama newman did your side effects go away after you stopped using it?

[@vivianefitzgerald9921]

I am sad to hear all of that.... Latisse has been working great to me and I had not have any reactions in 3 months of use so far. I wish that this was not this “dangerous” as having “natural” long lashes are a dream come true. Hopefully something safer will be developed in the future for us to use!

[@uglyduck8387]

remember these are only things that “could” happen

[@innak7921]

Thank you for telling us about this, these products are really scary in my point of view.

[@randiconniffe7538]

Thank you for this information. I have had terrible irritation with my eyes and never connected it to the serum. I have changed my mascara several times thinking that was the cause. You saved me a lot of pain...and money.

[@cateivy9747]

I used lash boost for a few weeks and started noticing I was gettting dark hollows under my eye. I googled it and saw nightmare stories. Some had permanent hollows

[@yasminalibazoglu3424]

Instead of using on the eyelashes can these serums help with hair on your head? In places where it is thinning? Also Dr Dray, can you please discuss the New Total RF Serum ?

[@Stephlovesummer]

Thank you so much for this, I have chronic dry eye after laser eye surgery, and I have used RapidLash for years. I will try stopping and see if this improves!

[@sherilove145]

Hi Dr Dray, I have used lash serums with great success! The lash product that has worked best so far is Babe Lash. I used it on the tails of my brows because I had one or two little brow hairs ... it was sad! It did produce several more brow hairs on each brow, and I was thrilled! So that’s been my experience. I have also experienced itchy areas on the water line (hope that’s correct term). I rub gently and it goes away. I’ve had no other unwanted side effects. As always, thank you for enlightening us !

[@carolinalima4326]

I was just googling this yesterday !!!!

[@DrDrayzday]

thanks for watching

[@cinnamonpie8077]

I use maybelline lash serum .I also wear contact lenses. My lashes look better and so far no irritation.

[@tashacoleman9612]

Wow! I’ve been considering starting a lash serum but am definitely not after hearing this. Thanks for the info! You may have saved my eyes!! 👍🏽

[@bunnyluuuvvv]

I wish this video existed before i used grandelash for months, this makes so much sense now

[@kathiaauroraserranonieblas922]

Hi, Dr. Dray, I was wondering... Do you have the links for those studies you mentioned? I am a medstudent and this video made me very curious, I would love to read them. Love your videos! thanks so much

[@renematisse]

You’re such a natural beauty Dr. Dray ♥️ also thanks for making this video, I used Latisse for a short time and didn’t have any side effects but it was too expensive so I was looking in to a lash serum but you’ve convinced me to just appreciate my lashes the way they are and not risk it.

[@norniea]

LOVE your hair today!! Super cute, Andrea!

[@monikakay95]

Love the new hair style!

[@kettleofshapes]

Ive been using Eyenvy for about 4 months, which does not contain prostaglandin. I've been very happy with my results. This may be a safe alternative for folks, however I will use with caution and will closely monitor any side effects. Thanks so much For Dray!

[@arlenes1048]

Sadly, EyEnvy was found to be "mislabeled" and a recall of the product ordered by Health Canada for a synthetic prostaglandin not being included in the ingredient list. 😏🙄😡

[@latriciamendoza3748]

Happy Friday Everyone! You look so pretty Dr. Dray 😍 Thanks for sharing info on the side effects. I don’t personally use lash serums but it’s good to know. Have a fabulous Friday!

[@marizzy63]

Thanks Latricia have a great day and weekend enjoy 🤗🤗🤗

[@jeanneburns-sloan1471]

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.

[@topaznurse]

Thank you once again Dr Dray gives us the down and dirty on products we use or are considering. I have been considering a lash serum for quite some time. Well I just bought the trial size of a very popular lash serum and it’s going back. I was looking at videos of reviews and how to apply and found this video. I already have watery eyes. I don’t need anymore issues.

[@KRose-jz7fj]

Went through chemo lost lashes and brows, was using one of these ,wish I hadn’t. Lucky I stopped quickly. Knew right away. Was itchy and irritating. Thank u dr Dray!

[@Notawesomeatall7]

Wishing healing to you.

[@starsheen1]

Lash Boost made my eyes super sensitive, and darkened my eyelid so bad 😭 it took about a year for the skin discoloration to go away.

[@luquezada1049]

Thanks fir this video. I heard bad things since Latisse was first on the market and so glad i have steered clear of these serums!

[@rosiesketofoodfindings5296]

Dr. Dray looking gorgeous! Loving the hair and glowy skin!!

[@kszy2384]

I’ve used a lash serum once and it somehow gave me 3 painful eye cysts...never again!

[@nihileyes]

I used grandelash, while my lashes grew, I suffered from hyperpigmentation and red puffy tired eyes. I looked absolutely horrible!! But I thought it was a side effect for that lash serum and I was going to try revitalash. Thanks for saving me $150!

[@mansken48]

hello! may i ask if the hyperpigmentation around your eyes faded away after you stopped using the lash serum? bc i just stopped using revitalash and OH GOD the hyperpigmentation around my eyes is even more noticeable than my long eyelashes 😭

[@nihileyes]

@@mansken48 yes 😭 thankfully it faded 2 months after I stopped using it!

[@mansken48]

@@nihileyes thank youuuu!

[@JazzyJay184]

I had this problem with grandelash serum! I’m hoping that the hyperpigmentation and irritation goes away since I just quit using the serum.

[@ferielferiel8137]

@@JazzyJay184 After quitting the serum have your lashes come back to their normal state ?

This is good to know because I received an lash serum and I was about to use but I'm not going too anymore. Thank you for your helpful tips.

Very helpful and timely. Thank you!
