Eyelash Primer

Franklinbell · ‎01-04-2015

Hello beauties!

i have a question. The other day I was at the Dior counter and the sales associate asked me if I used primer on my lashes. I admitted that I do sometime and sometimes not so much. I explained I have great intentions but...

That continued into a whole conversation about false eyelashes and how many people are wearing them and so on. She then told me to get a primer and use it in the am for under mascara and then put it on at night to moisture my lashes while i sleep. She said it may help them grow.

News to me. Anyone try this? Just curious!

I started using a eyelash growth serum on mine at night. My eyelashes are so long that I don't need anything now, but a small amount of mascara.

I've never heard of it but then I don't read about mascara anymore. I guess the right primer could condition your lashes at night but make them grow? Probably not.

I tried an eyelash serum to make them grow longer & thicker and it really does work! However, after using one for several months (or weeks?) I noticed one day that I had an eyelash up on one of my eyelids. I tried to flick it off but realized it was attached to my eyelid!!

I took a closer look with a magnifying mirror and saw that tiny new multiple eyelash growth was happening up on both of my eyelids! Yikes! I stopped using it immediately and after a few weeks my eyelids went back to normal.

It was a very weird thing and I wonder if that had happened to anyone else?

@haddon9 I have not had that problem. What bugs me is that not only did they grow longer, they are curled. It makes it hard to line my eyes. I love the long lashes, except when they keep hitting my sunglasses. LOL

@monicakm Mine have grown much longer then they were.

@Franklinbell - I use lash primer and using it will only condition your lashes, not make them grow. If you want them to grow, there are plenty of growth serums on the market.
