I live in triple digit heat with single digit humidity.   Mascara is a big NO during the summer.    Turns my lashes rock hard...like toothpicks.

@Pink123  Beautiful photo of you, Pink123!  Thank you for sharing your gorgeous photo and lash tips and tricks- gorgeous eyes and natural glam results with the Ardell Demi lashes 🙂.I want to try to wear false lashes again- Ardell is a great brand, I used to rock their Demi Whispie lashes a lot. I think I'd like to get back to false lashes- they're affordable and a fun way to enhance eye makeup looks  🤗

How gorgeous you are!  I wanted to ask you a question - do you have sensitive eyes or any other issues with your eyes regarding sensitivity to eye products?  I have always wanted to try small false lashes but was afraid to because of the glue.  Also, I am all thumbs, so have doubted whether I could master putting them on.  Your application looks so nice and not over-done!  Thank you!

Mine used to be very thick and long. After my cataract surgery, I noticed they were very sparse. I'm not sure if they had gotten that way with age and I just didn't notice when my eyesight wasn't all that good. I'm hesitant to put anything on my eyes so I've not tried any of the serums. I do think they've started getting thicker, maybe 5 years after the surgery, but not positive. I wear mascara if I'm going out. Since I'm in my 70s and pretty much "invisible" now, that does fine with me.

When I noticed my lashes thinning out a bit I started using a serum from Amazon that worked.  Then they changed the formula and it wasn't nearly as good.  

I'm now using SWEED EYELASH SERUM which is EXCELLENT.  It has helped my lashes thicken out and they look almost like they did when I was decades younger.  I also love Sweed Cloud mascara and normally purchase the 2 in a set (which I get directly from Sweed).  They have sales and there are promo codes available too.

@CarolinaGirl88   I also stopped using a lash curler. I switched to a tubing mascara which seems to hold the lashes curled enough for me.

@Carolina925  The Ophthalmologist always cut the eyelashes before cataract surgeries.

@KittySoftPaws My opthalmologist did not cut my eyelashes before cataract surgery.

I also had my "floaters" removed with surgery by my retinologist. No lash cutting there, either.

I just wanted to say I started taking an iron supplement which made my lashes grow like crazy!

@nyc1 I had never heard of the Sweed brand.

I used to love to wear mascara and eyeliner. I had nice full lashes, but as I've gotten older my eye lashes are very short and sparse. I am 69. Anyone else with that problem?

Yes and some curl the wrong way!  LOL  I find using a lash curler and BadGirlBang mascara by Benefit is the best.  I only wear mascara occaisionally now.
