Lashes gone wild - Page 2

I went through a tube of Rapid Lash and while I think I saw minor results, I noticed my eyelids getting darker. I wouldn't buy that again.

I may give this a try.

I had that experience with RapidLash. I used for about 4 weeks and didn't feel like it was really working and then it suddenly seemed like it worked overnight. I actually had to trim my lower lashes because it worked so darn well. I wound up discontinuing when my lashes were rubbing up against my glasses and didn't repurchase.

I honestly didn't really believe it would work at all and only tried it on a whim because it was 50% off on Hautelook. I was shocked at the fact that it really did do what it promised.

I have been using Grande Lash for over 18 months and there have been two formula changes since my first shipment. The active ingredient is a synthetic prostaglandin, Closprostenol. it is listed last in the current ingredient deck posted on HSN. it used to be listed higher up on the deck

TBH i have some sparse fall-out of lashes after what seemed like noticeable length enhancement. My lashes initially took 3 months to lengthen and there is little thickening overall, just longer lashes.

I don't know why i still use it only that after stopping Latisse all my eyelashes all fell out. And i can get 4 months out of a tube.

Adding that skin around my eye is sort of darker

This is important. If it still has prostaglandin in it, any of the side effects associated with that ingredient can apply.

A long while ago I tried one of these prostaglandin serums. Can't even remember which one it was now. My lashes grew and I had to cut them because they bumped my glasses. But my eyelids darkened right where I was putting the serum and my eyes, which were blue grey, started to get a slight green tint to them. So I stopped. I love brown eyes, but wanted to keep my origninal color. The lid darkening has gone away over time, but I think the slight eye color change is here to stay.

I found some eye color lightening drops on Amazon that might possibly reverse the darkening. I just haven't tried them yet. Seems sort of risky.

I use Grande Lash on my lower lashes because they are basically extinct and it works beautifully. Also love their mascara and have used that for years. My daughter works for a derm and I can get Latisse through her. Latisse can't be used on the lower lashline so I the Latisse on my upper lashes. May have to experiment someday and try it on my upper lashes.

Why can't Latisse be used on the lower lashes?? I've been using it on my lower lashes for quite some time now without any bad results.

You might consider getting glasses with the adjustable nose pieces. They adjust the glasses B4 placing the marks for the progressive lens. I have never been able to wear to wear glasses where the nose piece is part of the frame. Id rather do that than having to cut my lashes. Just a thought.

I would love to know the answer to that question also. I have been using Careprost on my lower lashes since day 1 and never have experienced any problems with that.

Maybe someone can answer that question. As long as we haven't experianced any bad effects, I quess we can continue using it.

I now use Isomers Stem Genesis for lashes on my brows and lashes, not a miracle worker, but it sure beats having my skin turn dark grey. I also like that the eyelash serum goes on with a sponge tip applicator and is applied directly to the lashes, and not on the lid. Makes for a good lash conditioner.
