My Latisse Experience: Before & After, Pros & Cons

[@barbarahermannster]

Here we are, many years later. This is the best Latisse video I have seen. Helpful tips are included here. I agree with those who commented that Kate is a natural and more videos would be awesome.

[@lovecharisma8284]

I know this is an old video, I noticed the people in your comments are super negative and I don’t know why that is. I read comments all the time and it’s typically not like this. I hope that didn’t discourage you from making videos. You’re very beautiful and many ppl are negative and miserable. Thank you for this review! I started my first day with latisse today!

[@YvonneKa]

I've been using the actual bimatoptost drop which I buy for $20 online for the past 5 years or so. No eye colour changes, a little darkening of the eyelid, which I actually like the look of. My lashes are crazy long, I look femenine and I don't waste money on lash extensions. I looooove it, but I wouldn't pay latisse money for it when you can just buy the eye drops themselves for a fraction of the price.

[@abbiehazelwood2848]

This is so lovely!

[@katew.176]

@@YvonneKa you're doing too much with I don't do this and I don't do that. We don't need to know all that. It could've stopped at what you do. And that's enough. Thank you for the recommendation.

[@conuregirl007]

Thank you. Very informative. I use Latisse, but if you don't have a lot of hair follicles, then you won't get all the great lashes. I lost all my eyelashes when I had chemo. They came back short, thin and brittle. When I was young, they were long and thick without mascara. Latisse helped mine a little, but not a whole lot due to the chemo and my lack of hair follicles now. Yours look GREAT!

[@maryanne9352]

Try careprost! its literally like $30-35 a bottle I get mine from: *beautyinaboxshop.com/* they have excellent customer service, its ships FREE from the US and they ship super fast! read their reviews on their site and on facebook too, and email them for coupons, sometimes they have for new customers. they sell it under "eyelash growth solution" and they also sell retin-a!!! the owners are really nice and will answer your questions xx

[@user-np8yf8fj2w]

Susan Ritter Hope you are doing well 💕

[@angelinebiswas7611]

using those brushes they give you is SUCH a waste of product!!! I use a thin eyeliner brush and get away with 1 drop for both eyes making a 5ml last me almost 6 months.

[@polypocket75]

Angeline Biswas That’s so true! I did the same, bought a high quality eyeliner brush and used one drop for both eyelids, it’s more than enough, my eyelashes grew like crazy without putting a drop per eyelid. The 3ml bottle I purchased lasted 4 months.

[@Pipsterz]

Did you reuse the brush - Would you detail what you did please, including cleaning process of the brush? Thanks.

[@srichmond15]

I use a fine eyeliner and wash it with my face soap once a week. You don’t need a sterile application. Mascara and eyeliner go in the the same place.

[@Pipsterz]

@@srichmond15, Thanks :)

[@Marie-oy1bd]

@@Pipsterz I use the same application process under discussion, but I sterilize my brush with rubbing alcohol after using it each night. The solution does get into my eyes a bit, unlike mascara and eyeliner (usually), and I have sensitive eyes so I don't want to risk creating a problem for myself. Good luck!

[@CarolineAnandSiddiqui]

So much about the brush and contamination..then why don't we use a new brush everyday to apply mascara and eyeliner???

[@joyce_dmd]

I’m surprised that you have only one video. And considering how you were in front of the camera in your FIRST video, I think you could have been big by now if you had continued making videos. I think you’re a natural.

[@kateprueher802]

Hi Joyce! Thank you so much for your super nice comment, I really means a lot to me!

[@birdtweettweet]

Here I am a year later thinking the same thing! Actually bummed there were no other videos of her. You're very good at this Kate Prueher!

[@mimisoliz5405]

You dont need to worry so much about the brushes. You use the same mascara wand for weeks and you are fine. i always wash my face so my face and hands are clean and moisturized before i apply any lash serums.

[@TheYengirl]

I never use the brushes that come with it. They waste the product and they are to thick and gets it all over the eyelid. They go right in the garage for projects. The best way I found is use any small art brush or angled eyeliner brush. I clean it after ever use.

[@kateprueher2164]

Lisa K Troy Thanks so much Lisa, I'm definitely going to try this. And I'll be so happy to get rid of those brushes, they take up so much space! x

[@NorahAlbaiz96]

Do you clean it with just water?

[@TheYengirl]

Every week wash with a little baby shampoo and rinse good.

[@haafidee5109]

Does anyone know if Latisse can be purchased in Canada?

[@merk8es]

Haafi Dee Hi Haafi, sorry for the delayed response! As far as I know, you can purchase it in Canada. I believe the way to get it there is through spas that offer Botox services. Hope this helps!

[@TheDailyPin]

I got the generic prescription. 5mL for $66 with the GoodRX discount at Walmart. She also gave me 2 refills. I used it for the first time last night. I have been wanting to do this since it first came out.

[@vutran7787]

You're stunningly beautiful! Thank you so much for reviewing Latisse. I have been debating whether or not to try this.

[@merk8es]

Thank you so much, Vu, you totally made my day! Have you decided if you're going to try it yet?

[@vutran7787]

I've decided not because of the potential side effects, and I think you have to keep buying Latisse to maintain the length of your lashes. :-)

How bad is the darkening around the lids? I think i notice that with my eyelids Also they say they would give u a tired look Others say they get sunken eye sockets as well. I might have to discontinue it

[@ricekitten12]

omg your lashes are so doll-like, love love love!! Your skin also looks so beautiful!!

[@kateprueher802]

Oh my gosh, thank you SO much, your comment totally made my day!

[@katieholiday7583]

I used this product for 4 months. Yes, it made my lashes longer, but once I read several studies and an eye wiki written by ophthalmologists, I found out it shrinks the fat in the eye area and eventually can cause eyes to look tired or sunken. So I stopped.

[@Blossom702]

Katie Holiday Very interesting, thank you.

[@megandandrea4490]

That's generally for direct eye drops (for glaucoma) rather than external application on the lash line! At least that's what I've read/heard :)

[@polypocket75]

That is listed as a side effect if you apply it directly on the eyeball. It’s safe when used as directed.

[@Robin-gf7bd]

They need to market it to put on your butt and thighs 😂

[@ourgreatadventures1]

I have to say after watching one of your previous video's and you sharing then that you were using Latisse, I went and got it. I had seen it on tv before, and I was considering it for a while. I too was scared that my blue eyes would turn brown, but I rationalized that if they started I too would stop the use of it. Well I am about a month into it and I can already see some growth, and it seems to have made my blue eyes bluer, if that's possible, lol. My husband actually pointed it out. My eyes have always changed colors, and now the go from grey to bright blue. It's kinda cool. Thanks for sharing your thoughts on this! (Mae)

[@kateprueher2164]

Oh my gosh, I'm so happy that you are enjoying the Latisse so far! I feel like in your Advocare video you lashes are really popping...if you are already seeing a difference, imagine what they will be like when they fully go through the cycle. And I'm so jealous that your eyes look even bluer! I totally think that's possible to happen, maybe because your lashes are getting darker the blue really stands out? I'm curious to know if you end up experiencing any of the weird but not worrisome side effects I have. Keep me posted! x

[@ourgreatadventures1]

You're eyes are so beautiful, you have a piercing blue, nothing to be jealous over here :-) I Actually noticed the change when my husband pointed it out to me. My eyes change colors usually but not to the bright blue that the did, and he also said that the green around my pupil was a little brighter too. What ever its from (darker lashes or the prescription itself) I'm not complaining :-) I haven't has any side effects at all. Not even dry eyes (Now that I say that I will, lol) I use it religiously every single day, and I don't use the applicators provided, I have a makeup brush that I sanitize with each use. I can not wait until the full cycle is complete, I am in love with your lashes! They are so pretty!! I will post an update once I share with my page that I am actually using this, lol.

[@coralofyt]

why not hold the brushes together & have one drop cover both brushes at the same time?

[@polypocket75]

Autumn Oceans it’s a waste. It’s better to buy a high quality eyeliner brush and a ceramic dish to do it...

[@hellsbelle7533]

I use one drop and it is more than enough for both eyes.

[@annafelka2085]

when she said the price i almost chocked! thats a lot to spend on ones eyelashes! of course, if you can afford it and if you really want to try out the product then you should go for it! but if you are looking for a more cost efficient way to get longer lashes i reccommend using vitamin E oil (or any moisturizing oil such as jojoba, castor, coconut, etc) you will still get great results with these alternatives :)

[@artsyfartsystuff4277]

nothing else on market works!! and if ya add up all the $$$ ya sspend on falsies and mascara etc in a year just as if not more expensive :)

Hi....great video....thanks so much......I too bought Latisse 1-1/2 yrs ago but never started it. I am ready to try it but my question is, did you use the one you bought two years prior? or did you get a new prescription? Thanks so much for your help.

[@kateprueher2164]

Hi Donna! Thank you so much for watching! That is so funny you held on to your Latisse without using it too. I actually did use the expired one for a week or two, but then decided to go get a fresh prescription just to be on the safe side...I wanted to make sure I was getting the full potency (and my friend was like, "what are you crazy? get a new one, it could be unsafe!" so I did, haha!)

[@mongamonga1477]

Any side effects??

[@luvslagos]

Great video. I have been using Latisse for 10 weeks and my lashes are growing nicely (except the ones near my inner corners). After 4 months, did you titrate your dose? That is, only use every other night or are you still using it every night?

[@kateprueher2164]

Hi, thank you so much! I'm so glad you're having success with the Latisse too. I have not titrated my dose, I am still using it every night. I'm nervous about cutting back for fear it will have a negative impact and I end up back at square one. Are you planning to cut back at 10 weeks?

[@qveenissac]

Idk if anyone said this but those w blue eyes need not worry--it only has the potential to darken brown pigments so those w hazel or brown eyes. Plus that was when used for its intended original application (I believe glaucoma) where it's dropped into the eye directly. But even then it was a smaller % of people. So if you have brown in your eyes just don't get it in your eyes! I have light brown eyes & had no color change. I did notice some slight darkening of my side undereye like a faint shadow bc I tried to use it on my lower lashes despite instruction not to so a) now I know why lol and b) i stopped applying it there and it quickly returned back to normal. I'm trying to find a good natural (non chemical) serum to grow lashes back after my Latisse dream became a nightmare. Please rec if u had success w one. I had really long lashes naturally but tried Latisse anyway (read: greedy!). My lashes began lightly shedding a few weeks after starting but I persisted and it paid off as I got visibly thicker & even longer lashes! I looked like I was wearing falsies w/ mascara before but now it looked like I had 2 Falsies stacked lol. I only used 1 bottle and stopped maybe 2-2.5 months ago. My lashes started shedding drastically within a couple weeks! I even had a huge bald patch on my R eyelid! Now they are short and stubby literally half the length--I can tell because I have 2 long lashes left on each side still and they're more than 2x as long as the new regrowth. The regrowth is SO MUCH shorter than even my natural length. I had used the leftover of the nightly application drop on my brows and even my L brow still has bald patches. Some might say "wait longer they're still growing in," but they all started falling out and regrowing at diff times but have all stopped or finished growing at the same length and I know my lashes & brows take 2 months tops to grow from 0 to full yet it's 2.5 months and I'm left w/ stubs and patchiness. I never read anything that said your lashes would grow back worse when you stopped! I don't think I would ever again use or recommend Latisse/bitmatoprost to anyone! Esp if you already have good lashes! Don't risk it! Unless you intend to use it forever but I've read it stops working for some women after a year and now I've read accounts of women whose lashes never grew back normally months or even years later! Claire Danes bye.

[@cartainflint1]

Loved the review! Was super thorough and really helped out :)

[@merk8es]

Thank you so much, I really appreciate you watching! :)

[@noellesweeney8719]

Very good review. I was just chatting with my hairstylist about this the other day. She uses it and LOVES IT! Does't miss a night. She even said that sometimes when she has been at a party or is exhausted and falls asleep with her mascara on,she will still put a very small layer on the base. Lol. I had very very long lashes when I was young that curled as well. So long that one day they were bothering me so much by toughing & tickling my eyebrows/eyelid when I would blink or look surprised.... So, I got little baby cuticle scissors and cut them down a bit. I regret that now. But luckily, I had good eyelashes in the first place that it wasn't such a terrible thing ( I'm trying to convince my 8-10 year old self that I had good reasons! They were tickling my eyebrows! Hahaha) But they never really grew back to the thickness and length as they were before. And they fall out from time to time :( I recently started putting organic coconut oil,vitamin e,& castor oil sometimes. Or just one of then to make them less brittle. But my hairstylist's lashes looked so good that I thought they were just natural looking falsies. So now I am looking into trying it out because the first thing a person notices about me is my smile and my eyes. Oh and I have BLUE EYES AND VERY FAIR SKIN. Any advice? Techniques? You get it through your dermatologist correct. How do I go about getting deals on it like some people do? I just wanna be sure I'm getting the best REAL stuff if I am going to spend that kind of money. You can DM ME, comment here, Instagram noellie87.... Comments welcome!!!! And before and after or after pics of that's possible. If not, don't worry about it! Enjoy life. It's precious. And most of all be thankful for your health. I am going to beat my battle with chronic Lyme Disease one day but until then, educate yourself. Here is a link with some info www.lymedisease.org. Thanks for reading my novel on Latisse. Hahaha!!!!! I'm tired & rambling.....

[@merk8es]

Hi Noelle! Thank you so much for watching! That is so funny about your hairstylist. I am super dedicated to using my Latisse, but she definitely has me beat! I am so sorry to hear about your battle with chronic Lyme Disease. A friend of mine is going through the same thing and I admire her and your strength! As far as the Latisse, I also have very fair skin naturally, and i definitely have discoloration. I am a daily foundation wearer though, so it doesn't really bother me, but it is definitely there. I will say what has helped quite a bit is me being a little less heavy handed with it. I used to really load it on until my lashes felt wet at the base, which really wasn't necessary. I also started using an eyeliner brush that has a tip that is much smaller than the Latisse brushes, so compared to what it was like before, it's barely noticeable. For less expensive alternatives, a few people have mentioned Careprost and someone else talked about lab lash in the comments as alternatives to Latisse. Someone else also mentioned that you can buy bimatoprost 3% online for less as well. I haven't tried any of these options though so can't personally vouch for them, but it might be worth researching!

[@LioraHessArt]

This was such an educational video--thanks for making. Your results are great!

[@kateprueher2164]

Thank you so much, Liora! :)

[@Rumpelstiltskinsdaughter]

I use Latisse and it works. I have brown eyes so it’s not something I’m worried about. A new side effect is fat loss around the eyes which basically ages you around the eyes. I started getting a little uneven fat loss on my eye lids so it’s driving me crazy. Of course that could be just natural aging as well so it may or may not be caused by lattise, but it has been reported recently as a side effect.

[@kateprueher802]

It's so crazy you say that, because my friend started using it after me and she said that it started making her dark circles darker after about a month, so she stopped using it. So crazy that years later it is proven as a side-effect!

[@anne853]

The studies seem to indicate that the skin discoloration and fat loss are reversible. I’m going to try to apply the smallest amount along my lash line so it doesn’t get all around my skin or in my eyes. There’s got to be a safer way to use this. Last time I checked, there were none of the side effects associated with the bimatoprost eye drops ever reported to the FDA regarding Latisse use. But I do see women reporting them on social media. I used generic Latisse years ago without side effects. I got major lash growth. I only stopped because I was an inconsistent 20 year old. I’m going to try again.

[@lisavayssie6477]

Hi Thank you for your video:) I am using Latisse prescription from my eye doctor:) I apply every night. I also don't use the brushes that come with eye drop. I bought applicators that come 100 in a pack with cover over them. but I am taking yr suggestion and putting one drop in cap of dropper. Its been a week so I have a long way to go to see results. But thats ok:)

[@cynthiariley6785]

I just ordered it and I came back to find this comment! So 1 drop in the cap for both eyes?

[@lolabrini3758]

honestly dont use applicator disinfect ur pinky, make sure it's dry, use one drop for each eye (right pinky for right, left for left) been doing this for 3 years now. One bottle lasts me waaayyyy longer. Also my lashes grew so long and thick within 3 weeks. After one month i only put it 2-3 times a night. Maintains it. However: ur eyes look more sunken. Which can look nice (seductive) but also aging (loss of fat)

[@britneybxoxo]

when you were talking about spreading bacteria from one eye to another, you're right, I mean we don't wash our hands in between putting one contact in and then in the other.

[@bubblegum472]

Don’t you use the same mascara brush for both eyes though? Then let those germs fester in the bottle for weeks or months? I don’t see how using one applicator brush a night is riskier than anything else we do to our eyes everyday... 🤷🏻‍♀️

[@rvenfny4892]

Hi, I started using mine last night. I have sensitive skin so I was afraid of potential irritation but woke up this morning and my eyes feel fine. I used the one drop in the lid trick and one drop was enough for both eyes. I also wiped the still damp brush on my scant outer eyebrows.One comment, I did speak to my eye doc and he said(off the record) that the color changes some people experience happened with Lumigen, the original drug used for Glaucomma. These drops were put directly in the eye. He said he never knew of a case where this happened with Latisse, the lid discoloration was a different story. Thank you for taking the time to share your information. May my lashes be half as lovely as yours.

[@kateprueher2164]

Thank you so much for your nice comment and for sharing the info from your doctor, I really appreciate it! Keep me posted on how it ends up working for you!

[@astralartist4]

Put the drop on a clean surface, such as a new paper plate - using the lid and retouching the lid with germs from the face/eyes will definitely breed germs in the bottle lid/cover.

[@LillyLigaya]

I don't use the brushes it comes with, instead I use half a drop only by dabbing onto a thin liner brush until it is saturated and I use it on both eyes. This let's me use my 5ml lattisse for at least or also 6mo. I use it before bed and before work. I know it's excessive but it works for me.

[@azinabi]

Thank you for the sharing your experience , my question is the result of using Latisse is not permanent ? i mean if i stop to using Latisse my eyelashes will eventually return to their original appearance. ?

[@kateprueher802]

Hi Azin! Yes, they will slowly return to their original state. I stopped using Latisse a couple years ago (because I got tired of the redness it caused) and it took a few months until they were back to how they were pre-Latisse. I miss my long lashes so much!

[@azinabi]

@@kateprueher802 Thanks for your answer :)

[@Saffron-sugar]

I thought that when they said Latisse could “turn your eyes brown“ they meant that the whites of your eyes could darken not that blue eyes would actually completely change to a different shade?

[@et5895]

Not the whites. It can change your eye color but not the whites

Oh gawsh!!Do ya think it's okay for asian girl ?! Because I get it for FREE from my doctor as I used to work as esthetician yeah and its 3 ml of the small bottle and am not sure if its safe though as i suppose its FDA approved ? Well it aint only me get tht latissse though but my co workers as well yeah~~ What do ya think?? I gotta start using it asap! As its expiry is next yr and am aint gonna waste it just liddat though!!😢😢😢

[@dolphinlover3001]

What you are getting for free from the esthetician are pharmaceutical samples from the drug company that makes and sells latisse. Doctors give out free samples all the time because they have so much and it is a great way for a client to try a medication without having to actually pay for a whole prescription

[@rachelbrelsford4796]

How long have you been on Latisse now? And have you noticed any side effects since making this video?

[@KD_OIFMedicM6]

Please help me I have a question. I went to a VA Doc a year ago, and after a check up, asked for Latisse. He informed me that "I couldn't afford it, so no." I can afford it by the way. Heartbroken, I decided to look online for a doctor, and pay out of pocket for another exam. While checking online, I found out that you could get the generic without a prescription and happily started ordering it. Unfortunately, it would take four weeks to get here. However it was worth it, and within three months I was so happy with my lashes, I knew I would belong to the Latisse for Life club. The company went out of business, and I thought I was ok, I still had two bottles. I looked earnestly, a month passed and I didn't find one. The last bottle turned out to be empty. So here is my question, it has been a month, if I restart the bimataprost, will it work ? I heard that if you use Rogaine, and stop, you can't start using it again ? BTW, that eye doctor works for the VA in Tyler. He is good with the actual eye stuff, but his bedside manner is testament as to why he was moved from the Dallas VA to here.

[@pattymccoy8457]

I put the drop in the lid of the bottle so i don't waste any of it. My doctor uses this and told me to put the drop in the lid. Also she uses smaller brushes than the ones it comes with

[@PureDiamondsz]

yes it does work. i googled the same thing and will apply to my brows as well

[@patriciajohnson1120]

+Sarah Sparkles +BabyFacedAmy ♡ You should use careprost. Its for growing eyelashes you can purchase it from www.OnlineBeautyProducts.net+[phone] they sell it on very less prices as compare to other pharmacies.

[@qveenissac]

I would use Minoxodil. It's generic Rogaine. You can buy it at Target...a 3 bottle pack (get the men's the women's is weaker) is like $19 and when they have 25% off Beauty/personal care it's even cheaper. The 3 bottles last FOREVER since it's just on your brows not your a scalp. I keep the unopened ones in the fridge. I apply w/ a cheap elf angled brush--it's thickness (bc it's cheap lol) actually helps get the liquid on your brows! Just use the dropper to put a drop on the brush & apply. I set reminders & took pics the same time of day (=same lighting) in the same spot in my bathroom every week the first month and then every month for the next 5 months & made a "brows" album on my phone. Within 2 weeks I saw growth but the photos really help see otherwise unnoticeable progress. In 2 months I saw so much growth. You don't realize you pluck as much as you do bc I thought I barely plucked! DON'T TOUCH the tweezers! It's key! Seriously. I started 2 years ago and used it 2x a day for the first year but now I just do it when I remember a few times a week. Putting it by your toothbrush helps. Oh and I recommend using Just for Men the beard dye to tint them--apply w a v thin angled brush in hair like strokes. Same as brow dye but cheaper. (KZbin it--it dyes the skin too so gives you a microbladed effect for 5 days!). I wouldn't recommend Latisse --I had a bad exp (I'll post that in another comment after this one). TL;DR Had massive shedding & lash/brow bald patches after stopping. 2.5 months later I have stubby lashes & a patchy brow. I had good brows (after the minoxodil) & great lashes b4 and got greedy!

[@billibillie2611]

Her eyelashes are by nature long and dark. You can clearly see it from her lower lashes. Did you use Latisse on lower lashes also?

[@svelanikolova5776]

PS. Try black seed olive oil and onion juice home remedy. Arabs use it for long lashes. I do my own mix by adding cloves and stinging nettle to that mix. I was bold for months from stress and pulling them out. Home remedies are much cheaper and cheaper to maintain your results Some use only good Ole Vaseline every single night as part of their night skin care routine.

[@chelseastewart840]

After doing alittle research I bought careprost which has the same ingredients as latisse on ebay, so HAPPY with the results!

[@jsmith5827]

Careful with that...... you have no idea what they could put in there.... not worth the risk over $50 bucks

[@maryanne9352]

Anyone looking for careprost (which is AMAZING!) I get my careprost from: *beautyinaboxshop.com/* they have excellent customer service, its ships FREE from the US and they ship super fast! read their reviews on their site and on facebook too, and email them for coupons, sometimes they have for new customers. they sell it under "eyelash growth solution" and they also sell retin-a!!! the owners are really nice and will answer your questions xx

[@Lulu-ql6mm]

my question is why did you use it for a. year? If you haven't seen further results why continue? is it because the lashes will fall out if you stop?

[@kateprueher802]

Hi! Apologies for the verrry delayed response. Yes, I stopped using it a couple years ago and after a few months my lashes returned to their original state.

Thank you!! Really interested in trying :-) wondering which eyelash tint you used?

[@veeestrada7977]

Been using latisse for a month now it makes my eyes red makes me look like I'm high so I wear eye drops to clear the redness my lashes are growing

[@why4762]

does latisse help strengthen eyelashes too? mine just keep falling out every single day no matter what!! 😞

[@olaayacoub]

You are absolutely gorgeous for one! Two, I would absolutely love to try this but I can get really lazy at night sometimes and purposely forget to apply my products and stufff! Would you recommend this for me?

[@kateprueher2164]

Thank you so much for your nice comment! I am wary to recommend if you think you aren't going to be consistent, because am verrry anal about making sure I use it every night, so am not sure if you would get the best results if you didn't. However, I watch Tyme the Infamous here on youtube and she said she only uses it every other night and has had success with it, so maybe if you could at least do it that often it would be enough. Maybe just keep it in your bedside table so it's easy to pop on before your head hits the pillow.

[@olaayacoub]

Dahlhouse Thank you!! I'll tryyyy to do that at least! My lashes need to grow a little!

[@roslynjones1722]

Thank you for your review. I will definitely check with my doctor first

[@edg.2676]

Do you still use it daily? I have heard other women say that after four months they use it only once or twice a week.

did you experience darkening of your underage, or eye shape changes? Im having problems with really bad undereyes. others say it eat away at your eye fat

Are you still using this? Anymore side effects?

Hi! I'm so sorry for my awfully delayed response! I actually stopped using it a couple years ago because I got tired of the redness around my eyes. After a few months my lashes returned to their original state.

[@agostinita6067]

I bought it two weeks ago after seeing your video, I haven't experience any side effect so far. I apply very little product as you said, but at the moms to I haven't seen a I progress with my lashes 😞

[@aylam5644]

has anything changed yet? how is your treatment going? i'm about to start.

[@agostinita6067]

+Ayla M they are thicker and a little long but they are not as long as I thought they ll be. I have been using it three times a week cos it drys my eyes a lot and sometimes they are all red so not very impress with the results.

[@mongamonga1477]

@@agostinita6067 any side effects??

[@3llemc]

The whole "latisse turns blue eyes brown" is pretty misleading. Their glaucoma medication (exact same ingredient) that goes *directly* onto the eye caused increased brown pigmentation in a very small percentage of people. In theory latisse could cause some brown pigmentation but it's pretty unlikely and I don't think there have been any reported cases with latisse itself. The active ingredient is another story.

[@mojikuai]

wow, ur eyes r really beautiful!

Thank you so much, you made my day!

[@sahraa3022]

nice video. are you still using it every single night, or just twice a week?

[@Purewithoutdoubt]

Is it permanent??? Or do we have to continue it for long?

[@kateprueher802]

Hi Sumaiya! Apologies for the late reply - noooo sadly it's not permanent. I stopped using it a couple years ago and my lashes took a few months until they returned to their original state.

[@DonaBologna]

thanks for the honest review, but I wonder why you were prescribed lattice with average lashes to begin with? you said it was for people with sparse lashes, medical conditions, etc. holy crap the benefits do not outweigh the risks. lash extensions are affordable, widely available, and look even better, IMO.

[@passengershaming]

because they will prescribe it to you if you want longer, thicker, darker, etc. lashes. it's cosmetic (and up to you), not medical -- but it does require an Rx if that makes sense :) so if it's something you'd like, you just ask for the Rx

[@Simsim3e]

Can you use q-tips when you run out of the applicators?

[@thankheavenforseveneleven5522]

Nooo that would waste so much product. Please don’t do that.

[@Lianasworld658]

I have a question, if i discontinue using it my lashes lose the length and fullness??? That means if i want to have nice and long eyelashes i should use it for good?!? So i have to buy it every 2 months? That would be very cost effective!!!

[@merk8es]

Hi! I'm so sorry for my late reply! If you stop using it, your lashes will go back to how they were before you started. It can be very addictive since you will become used to having long lashes and going back can be tough. I once had bonded hair extensions and I got so used to having such long, full hair that when I took them out it was like, womp womp - a total bummer!

[@3llemc]

Are you using Latisse on your bottom lashes?

[@kateprueher802]

Hello! I'm sorry for the delayed reply. No, I wasn't using it on my bottom lashes, but I believe some transfers via blinking, so it' might have given them a little bit of a boost.

[@shruffles35]

Honestly, it doesn't sound worth it. This hasn't been out long enough to know what the long term side effects are. I think I'd rather use artificial lashes when I go out, or just accept that I don't have naturally artificial-looking eye lashes.

[@Viscusos]

+Shruffle Love I agree with you. Latisse is a drug. There are natural alternatives, and even faux lashes are better as you don't have to worry about scary DRUG side effects.

[@shruffles35]

***** Absolutely. You could end up have eyelid cancer 20 years later, or having all your lashes drop out. They just don't know. Unless it had been out for 40+ years, I would never use it!

[@anne-mariecampbell3566]

You are so beautiful! Thank you so much for sharing your experience! :)

[@kateprueher802]

Hi Anne-Marie, please forgive me for taking so long to say thank you for your beyond kind comment, I really appreciate you!

[@christemgarcia5692]

why do you still have to use it after 120 days ? do they start falling out ?

[@bnegs521]

+Rico Rico Yes. It is a product that depends on continued growth similar to minoxidil.

[@naiixxbby]

So if I start using latisse and my lashes grow nice and I'm happy with the results and stop using it will my lashes just go back to being short or will I still have the long lashes basically is this something you have to use forever to maintain nice lashes ?

[@kateprueher2164]

Sadly once you stop using Latisse, your lashes go back to their original state in a couple of months. It's such a bummer! And I feel like it will be one of those things where I will feel like my lashes are worse than before because I'm so used to having them much fuller and longer. Kind of like when I wear my clip in extensions. But I hope they come up with something some day where you can just take a pill and your lashes are long for life!

[@stayroxy]

yes because of hair growth cycle......our hair sheds.... a product can't change our dna to make us forever grow longer and thicker hair......

[@emilychen3839]

So I have very dark brown eyes, I wouldn't have to worry about the darkening thing right? Lol it won't turn my eyes black?!

[@kateprueher2164]

Hi Emily! Thank you so much for watching! As far as I am aware, it is only those with light eyes that have a risk of darkening.

Is it normal to have some redness at first? Or am I having a bad reaction to it? Eyelids are kind of a bit reddish.

[@kateprueher2164]

Hi Catherine! I also had redness from it along the eyelash line that remained throughout my use of Latisse. However, if you are experiencing any discomfort or itching, it could be a bad reaction.

[@catherinewylie6959]

@@kateprueher2164 Thanks so much! Yeah, I realized it's just redness but no real irritation that I can feel. Can't wait to get some eyelashes again - and eyebrows! With age, they've really dropped out and thinned. Yours look very nice.

How you go?

[@kimberlymcdonald7891]

I asked for a prescription for the generic.... same ingredient

[@egglion]

Latisse has a patent on the product that's good for the next few years. Generics have been approved by the FDA, but they legally cannot become commercially available until the Latisse patent expires, which I believe is in either 2023 or 2025. If it's true that you have a generic and you aren't just fibbing online I just ask that you PLEASE be careful as to where you're sourcing it from (especially if it's a product claiming to have the same ingredient) because you're probably going to end up unknowingly doing harm to yourself :( I don't mean to be rude or anything, but seeing this concerned me a little
