Hi lovelies! Just wanted to answer the most common questions!
1. I personally don't want to go down the lash lift route it scares me 😅
2. The reason I wanted to try a serum despite having good natural lashes is because I wanted AWESOME ones 🤣 they can always be better 😜
3. I am a very restless sleeper and move from back/side/front which could be why they're worse on one side but I can't control myself when I'm asleep sadly 😅
4. I have previously tried castor oil for 6 months woth zero results x
Lash lift is really good if you find a therapist with lots of experience xx
@@karencap1690 therapist? You mean an aesthetician? Therapists are people who address mental health.
I’m with you on that. I’m a new grad and practice as a physician in the cosmetic surgery industry. We just brought in this serum & after two weeks of applying it three times a day ( an overkill to use more than once ) & in two short weeks, my lashes are freaking long and so beautiful.
I always tell my patients and friends, “don’t cover up or mask an issue, treat the problem not the symptom. “
Although the recommended usage is said to be once a day, I used it three times a day to see if it speeds up the lash length. I tried on each eye different amounts of treatments and I’m happy to say, once a day is enough.
A bit costly, I went through two of the $100 lash serums - in a month . That’s a bit costly .
Oh so now I get it!!! I kept telling me your lashes were oddly curled and much too curled which distracted me from watching you, and was giving you that spider lash effect. I'm sure your natural lashes will be back soon and just as amazing as they used to be. Love you XXX
thank you so much for speaking up about this serious issue. i have naturally long and dark lashes and was actually thinking about trying a lash serum, but now i’m just going to just keep wearing my favorite mascara. sending hugs and love.
When I first started watching you a year or so ago, I was so envious of your natural lashes. They are perfect! I get the struggle of wanting them to be thicker and I suspect that once you stop and you go through a full lash shed cycle ( it happens about every 7-8 weeks) you’ll be back to your regular lashes. I wear lash extensions and use NeuLash to keep my natural lashes healthy so I’m quite aware of my lash cycles. You’ll be back to your old self by the end of August. 💋 BTW, you’re not crazy! I totally get it.
i had commented the other day that your lashes looked stunning in your video. now i feel bad, knowing what a struggle you've been having with them. keeping my fingers crossed that things get back to normal soon.
Thank you so much for your honesty and for clearing that up; because I have been looking at your eyelashes for the last couple months and have been thinking OMG you have amazing lashes, and you do, but now I understand why. You have good genetics and you were using serum. Personally I appreciate that you don’t wear false eyelashes all the time because many of the channels I watch are always wearing false eyelashes and that’s just not something I’m going to do, not because I’m against them, I’m just not proficient at them and don’t want to deal with them. I am 63 and honestly I have fairly decent lashes- people comment on them periodically, so I’m pretty sure at this point I should just leave well enough alone.
I have been using revitalash for about 5 years. I also have naturally long and healthy lashes but I love the added drama. When I turned 45 my eyelashes became way more sparse and this has amped it up. My lashes don’t grow in this curl pattern though so I completely understand why you’d want to wean off. Your lashes pre-serum were amazing!!
Thanks for this, you have so much integrity and honesty.
Glad you did this video Charlotte as I’ve been considering this product, I certainly will give it a miss! Thank you xx
I appreciate your honesty and ethical standards.
OMG! Thank you SO much for making this video. I thought it was just me and I was going mad! Mine have done exactly the same, I'm gutted, they are so bent back on themselves, I've even tried to straighten them out (using lash curler upside down or using a heated lash curler and brush them to straighten out) and even (very extreme) cut the curl out - it's awful!!!
Literally got a Rivitalash ad when I clicked on this video 🤣 I’m afraid of lash serums generally, and I appreciate hearing about your experience.
Your lashes do look amazing - I thought it was down to your mascara routine! I've been using UK Lash and UK Brow for six months now and I'm delighted with both. I have naturally curly lashes, but they're short, and I like what they look like now although they are getting curlier as well. I'm pretty happy with my brow serum too, which as far as I can make out from the ingredients is the same one, only with a larger brush - I overplucked them in the 90s/00s, so I love what it does for them! I'm curious to see what the "weaning" process will be like! Thanks for your honesty, it's always appreciated!
you’re so blessed to have beautiful lashes. i stopped using revitalash because it caused coloring (brown) on my lower lids. i unfortunately don’t have lashes, so now i’m using latisse. thanks for sharing your honest review.
I've thought for a long time about using a serum, but the maintenance is what kept me from doing it. In the last six months or so, I've been dealing with flares of eczema on my eyes (unrelated), and I've come full circle and decided that my face, eyes, lashes, brows, etc. are all perfectly fine just the way they are. This is me. I started wearing makeup 2 1/2 years ago and I'm absolutely delighted by how I look with the right foundation, blush, bronzer, etc. It's been a journey to find the right products, but I think I look great. Even with small lashes and sparse brows. Thanks for your videos, Charlotte! xoxo
Laughing my head off! What an informative and hilarious video! Thank you!
Thank you for your honesty and courage!
I’ve always been completely mesmerized by your lashes - they are naturally beautiful!
Thank you so much for sharing this and keeping our peepers safe ☺️
Xo Tammy 🇨🇦
This will be an interesting experiment. Thank you for keeping us posted. Blessings XOXOXOXOX
I totally get what your talking about. I too have been getting the exact same results you are getting with that serum, rogue lashes in weird directions. My doctor recently told me that these eyelash serums also will effect the fat in your orbital socket area. I had noticed my eyes getting more deeper set lately and thought it was my ageing but these serums can cause that effect. So much so that she said a lot of hooded eye girls are using these lash serums to lessen their fat in their orbital area. I dont need that or want it, thank you very much. You are brave to discontinue, I want to but am afraid of seeing my lashes drop out one by one as i am washing my face and freaking out. Please do a follow up in a few months.
Thanks for posting this, because they are so common to use and very few customers weigh the benefits and risks. Awareness is really important for lash serums, I wish they were not so popular.
Hi darlin, I so appreciate your openness and honesty 💕 I recently started using revitalash. I’d ummmed and aaahed for a while but your lashes gave me the final push. I did lots of research first though. I’m like you in that I have good lashes naturally, they aren’t particularly curly though so maybe mine will grow straightish like they usually do. Time will tell! I’ve only been using it a couple of weeks. If they start getting unruly I’ll be knocking it on the head like you. I can’t be doing with more work.
🤞🤞🤞
I’ve had exactly the same experience. My lashes have all grown in different directions where they cross over eachother and look clumpy with mascara on, with the occasional poker straight sharp lash sticking out and it’s frustrating. The worst part is the expense because on discontinuing use, my lashes have begun to fall out and have gone right back to being short. The problem with these things is they’re clearly a forever investment. I’ve never been able to apply fake lashes and I couldn’t as of my glasses so I’m having to accept a significant financial loss (I’ve gone through a few tubes and the same happened with my brows) and the fact I am not naturally blessed in the hair dept 😂
It's so funny how much attention we pay to such tiny things.. I've just ordered a set of Lashify (thanks, Wayne Goss :P) and part of me is definitely like, "wait..why do I care about these tiny eye hairs so much??" Lol. Thank you for sharing your experience and explaining how the serum works. :)
I know this is an older comment, but I was thinking this exact thing. I think I need to try to evaluate and trim down what I spend time money and mind space on concerning my appearance. I personally don’t give anyone a second look concerning these things, so I doubt anyone else is doing the same to me. I like to look awake and fresh for myself, but I could probably get roughly the same results with three products in 5 minutes.
Like you, I already had good long lashes that held a curl easily with mascara. But being greedy I decided to try a lash serum to see if I could get vavavoom lashes 😂 I’ve been using NYK1 serum which is a UK based company that doesn’t contain the prostaglandin ingredient. So far, so good. Ridiculously long, thick lashes so I think I’m going to drop down to once a day now to see what happens. Good luck with your journey, I’ll be watching with interest xx
I too have naturally curly lashes. No eyelash curler. I've been using RevitaLash for over a year. The results are amazing, but I didn't start out with my lashes as long as yours. No side effects either, but they have been getting darker and thicker. I can see where it would bother you if the lashes got too curly.
I'm currently trying the Dime Beauty serum, which don't contain the same chemicals. Only for the last few weeks, so I don't know if I'm getting the same results.
Good luck Charlotte❣❤
I heard the hair on our head has a similar cycle, I suppose it makes sense. Spoke to my doctor and she said it's about every six years, we loose clumps, goes back to normal and cycle starts again. I don't know what age that starts for some but for me it was around 42. Interesting and informative video as usual 👍
Thank you for sharing your experience! I have thought about using one but I always forget to purchase it. my lashes are super curly naturally so this is Very useful!!
You are right- there will be folks that hate on you for this but hey good for you to be so blessed! I have thin sparse lashes and have used a serum for about 10 years. I end up having to trim certain lashes due to individual ones growing insanely long but others not so much. For those concerned with irises changing color, I have personally never had that and I have blue eyes. I primarily have used Revitalash but have used many others as well. Good luck all! Thanks as always Charlotte 😘
My experience has been the same as yours with lash-lengthening serums- NO issues really or iris color changes. I think Latisse had potentially been an offender of this but hadn’t heard of any non-prescription lash serums potentially causing this issue. The greatest challenge I have is, as a last step, remembering to apply a lash serum to my lashes every night.😊
It appears most of the side effects are pretty rare thankfully x
I love your content. So informative. Beautiful viewing. Thank you 💐🌹💄PS I am going to try a lash serum now. Am hoping to achieve your “problem”. Kidding aside we are all experimenting and (hopefully) enjoying our make-up / beauty journey, so totally respect your decision to stop using a serum for the time being. Do keep us informed though of your lash situation, how long till they return to pre serum length, not sure how long a full cycle of all lashes is. But love your content. Keep creating 😊
You’re definitely not crazy. They look insane and unmanageable and just unflattering the way they have grown in now. I never would have noticed but now that it is the focus of this video - I fully agree you should stop using the serum. Your natural lashes were beautiful and I like that look much better on you. Please don’t listen to all the people suggesting you take extra steps to alter your appearance even more to make this serum work for you and make your lashes even more high maintenance - they were beautiful and perfect before. Hope the process getting back to your natural lashes goes smoothly for you! Thank you for sharing
I have had the same issue when I was using the GrandeLash serum. I hadn’t thought that being a curly haired person, that my lashes would become “unruly.” But they did. It was just easier for me to not wear mascara at all. And I found myself either not wearing makeup, or strategically placing individual lashes. Too much work. I know it’s anecdotal at best, but every curly haired person I know, who uses a lash/brow serum reaches a point where the targeted hairs get too long.
lol! this is the most positive negative review ive ever seen and honestly i love it
You have very pretty lashes and i am also blessed with very long lashes. thanks to my dad. he also has lovely long lashes. it is just genetic some are lucky like us and some arent. i almost never use maskera but im tempted to get a good one now because i dont need falsies like all the other girls on here. i love how responsible you are on your channel thank you for that💖
Actually no, I don't think you're mad.
I thought you were purposely doing your lashes in way that forced them inwards, which if I'm being honest, I really don't like. I also thought there was a trend that I hadn't heard of, whereby inward lashes were the latest fad.
I suppose the only other option would be an eyelash perm to straighten them (I have no idea if eyelash curlers could then be used to recurl them).
Yes, I've used Revitalash and GrandeLash. As well as some decent lash growth I did notice that prolonged use made my eyelids darken! Needless to say, I stopped using any lash growth serums.
Very lastly, you never needed a serum! You have THE very best, natural lashes! 💗💗
🤣🤣🤣🤣 that's hilarious!
Ya, they don't look good. I can't wait to see what they look like naturally. You're so lovely and these lashes are distracting from that. "If it ain't broke, don't fix it."
I have average length lashes and use a different serum. Been thinking of stopping for the same reason, but not to the same degree as you. Along with overall good growth I also get a couple SUPER long lashes that I’ve dubbed the ‘freaky’ lashes that literally curl backwards bc they get so long. For the life of me I can’t get them to straighten out! I find I have to gently pick the mascara off just the tip of the freaky ones so my lashes look more uniform. Also, how funny, after watching this video I got an ad for revitalash! 😂
Love you Charlotte hope you are well! 😘
🤣🤣🤣
I did notice the lashes on your right eye had a strange curl direction to them but I thought that was just how they grew naturally ar the moment. This explains a lot. I have always wanted to try lash serum but I have decent lashes and was always scared of the side effects. Hope waning off goes smoothly!
I love that your so honest, I've never had to use a lash serum am like you i was blessed with long lashes but i do have to curl mine, I've lost count the amount of times people say to me where do you get your false lashes done and am like they are real and then its like they don't believe me because they start looking at them like wow and o no they are looking for the false band or something 🤣 great video ❤
Yeh I'm constantly told I'm lying lol x
I started using Revitalash in 2014 and my eyelashes grew amazingly. I had been using for a couple of months and then my left eye began to swell. I ended up in hospital for 3 nights. My face was swollen and my eyes were not lined up horizontally. Drs thought I had either Orbital Cellulitis or it was related to a mosquito bite from a recent holiday. I did not connect it to Revitalash as I had had a break from it whilst abroad. Anyhow, I started reusing it and ended up at outpatients, connected it to Revitalash and Dr advised me not to use it. I am now left with a pucker of skin under my eye in the shape of lightning flash and folds of skin in my inner eye.
I completely see what you mean. I have naturally thick, dark and long lashes and I struggle with mascara, because the lifting and lengthening effect of the mascara makes me look weirdly doll eye in a way I do t think flatters me.
I use castor oil and although it’s not as spectacular as lash serum, I see that my lashes (and my nails) are healthier and thicker and denser than before. It is very cheap and lasts for months.
I had the same experience when I had my lashes curled at the salon. They curled up onto themselves and were an absolute mess until it wore off. Good lock!
Actually I stopped it as well, about 2 months ago. It did work for my lashes but it made my under eye darkness so bad. I am having Botox and fillers on a regular basis and when I went last Friday, the doctor complimented my under eye and told me how much better they got. I told her it was because I had stopped using eyelash serum. She told me then that she wouldn’t use them either because they have some side effects that aren’t worth.
Edit: thanks for dr Dray who did a video about eyelash serums. I never had thought that the under eye darkness could be because of the freaking eyelash serum. I am predisposed to have dark under eye anyways so I just thought it was getting worse with age.
Oh wow that's not what we want! x
@@es.3020 at least those don’t make me 5 years older 😂
I have small lashes very straight. I've used Revitalash for a long time and they my lashes were definitely longer and fuller but they stayed straight. They refuse to hold the curl with a regular eyelash curler, so I have to use a heating curler and this changed my life. But I never apply it on my bare lashes, I put 1rst 1 coat of base coat, I curl them and apply after 1 coat of mascara. When I stopped Revitalash, quickly my lashes returned to their initial state.
I wondered when I saw pictures of you on Instagram what had happened to your eyelashes. They seemed so different than I remembered. I hope the lashes will go back to the natural, beautiful long lashes you always have had without the lash serum.
I stan your social media ethics
I have used Neulash, Revitalash and the Grande lash serums. I noticed with the revitalash my lashes were looking somewhat like yours then I switched to Grande lash and seems ok. However I do have very dry eyes not sure if it is from the serums. However my favourite is Neulash. Have one Rivitalash left and may just use it on my brows and see what happens. Will let you know. Thanks for doing this video.
Hey charollet.. looking lovely 👌👌I have never used these kinds of serum.. but really informative video 🥰
Thank you so much 😊
So I had the same experience. I too have naturally long lashes but thought I’d give grande lash a try. My lashes did get even longer but they started curling and growing in weird directions. It was so aggravating! Then my eyes started to get extremely dry, red and I had skin discoloration where I was placing the serum. Read about all the things that they could do to harm your eyes and I immediately stopped using it. Now my lashes are shorter less of them than before, and I’ve been off of it over a year and they never came back like previously.
My lashes have always been like that. The term I’ve heard that best describes them is “wonky lashes”. Been that way since I was a child. nothing controls them. I wonder if lash serum would make them normal
I have long lashes and have never had a need to use a lash serum or false lashes....My suggestion if you have bad lashes use false ones or use a natural oil castor oil or something natural to nourish your lashes its better than doing permanent damage to your own lashes or your eyes...Just my opinion..💯🇦🇺♥️Lovely thank you so much for this video and your total honesty its appreciated.. This is why I trust your opinions...😎
I’ve never had to use them as like you I am blessed with great lashes
Thanks for sharing your experience with the lash serum. I have eye issues already, so I never used a lash serum. I have used a brow serum to help with my sparse brows, and stopped after a few months after noticing redness and losing brow hairs.
Ohhhh no!! xx
No joke- before your video started, I got an advertisement for Revitalash, lol...
🤣🤣🤣🤣
As did I!
I got one before and one after 🤣
Glad I'm not the only one! 🤣😂🤣
Same here! 😜
I stopped using it a long time ago when I find out what’s inside this “amazing “ serum”… Thank you for this video! You are the queen 👸❤️🔥
🥰🥰🥰
What’s in there?
I’ve used lash serums before with very good results, but it just became cost prohibitive to continue. Luckily, my natural lashes are pretty long and thick and look good with mascara. Funny that there was a Revitalash advert right after your video, lol.
I legit have just been researching this and then you send this my way 🤭🤔😮
I used/use Rivita Lash, I started growing lashes in places I didn’t want them! I got them in the corners of my eyes and it constantly felt like something was in my eye. I also grew them on my water line, the lovely lashes it gave me didn’t outweigh those negatives. However, when I stopped I did get lots of gaps, so I now use it once a week or once a fortnight depending on how my lashes look. It’s much better when used like this for me personally. (I still have to pluck eyelashes out of the inside corners of my eyes which isn’t fun but they didn’t go away when I stopped 😑)
I have longish curly upper eye lashes that grow in interesting directions and like to cross each other when I apply mascara. ( Not far off bald on the lower lashline).Mascara marks on the upper eyelid are a thing. I understand what you are saying and after reading some of the comment section won't risk a lash serum.
Long curly lashes run in my family and everyone who has them (I do not) seems to find them a problem. My dad used to pull his out and my sister's went craaaaazy during her pregnancy and grew very much like yours.
Perhaps there are salons that do a reverse lash perm, similar to getting head hair "relaxed"?
Same Charlotte!!! My lashes are actually stick straight but when I used revitalash my lashes did grow, like WOW but they were growing in the oddest directions and definitely not fanned out. Ugh!!!
So annoying!! x
Get an eyelash “lift”. It’s like a perm. It will make the curl permanently uniform. I do mine myself every 2-3 months
Oh my day's I thought it was just me!!! I've been using UK lash since February, I've gone from short poker straight lashes to wild curly ones! First they were longer but not as dramatic as I hoped, but now their still straight at the inner corners, which is fine because at least I can curl them, but the outer corners are so curly! I can't straighten them out, so can no longer use my curlers as the curly ones either don't go in or even look worse. To add to these woes I've also been putting up with what I believe is called tea bag staining, which is really hard to cover up. I'm gonna quit using I think because I'm not happy with them, not what I hoped for at all, and more hard work than it's worth, also I find it's easier to create more length than trying to place them where they should be.. lesson learned the hard and expensive way
So what was wrong with the lash serume? I didnot get it:(
My eyelashes used to be extremely long and so are my daughters and like you she was constantly told not to wear mascara to school, when she wasn’t and never did , anyway I’m going to try out Revitalash because it’s the only way to see if it’s worth it , especially since mine are now no where near what the used to be at 63
I was having the same problem, using grande lash. I started cutting back and only using it every few days instead of daily and that seemed to help...I also thought about getting a lash lift done, not sure if it would help any, but just to try and see what happens 🙂
I wouldn't recommend the lash lift, its the reason i started using a serum because my lashes got really thin after my lift. I had great lashes before that 😔
Hi Charlotte!!! Whatever makes you feel better about your lashes,if you ask me (and you dont!!) yes they look a bit unreal...but you look gorgeous anyway!!!!💖💖💖💖
Charlotte will you please do a tutorial on your makeup application. I love love love your eye look. Please
I had been using Neulash for a couple years now...and it does work. And switched over to Grande lash recently, as it is a bit cheaper. but i have always had really stubby lashes...
Thank you for sharing. I love a good mascara, but I definitely have naturally good lashes. 😄👌🏽
I had seen a video recently of a technique where you brush your upper lashes inwards towards your nose with the mascara wand to give the effect of a larger eye shape. I thought perhaps that was what you were doing. Or you can brush them outwards towards the outer corner of your eye to give a cat eye effect. I've seen other UA-camrs who have used serums say they have had problems with their lashes 'growing like weeds' and completely uncontrollable. Personally, I prefer to let my mascara do all the work for my lashes.
I use a lash serum, occasionally i get super long weird lashes. I just trim the very ends and that seems to fix the problem. I still have good volume and length.
About two months ago I started Neva eyebrow serum and now I need eyebrow dye! I also bought the Neva eyelash serum and it worked.
My lashes are fairly long and I’ve been using a serum. I’m noticing that on one eye my lashes seem to be a little wild too. I still like it but will see how it will get in a month.
I totally get your problem! I have super thick and long hair, most people would kill for it but I hate it, it’s so thick it’s not managable, I cant keep a curl, or keep it straight..
The grass is always greener! lol x
I've been using UKLash because I thought it didn't contain prostaglandins, as did all the blogs and recommendations about it (I never would have used it if I knew). Turns out it does contain it just not advertised explicitly. I want to stop using it but worried about what will happen if I stop suddenly. I've had no side effects at all, just concerned about it impacting growth patterns
I used to use lashbosst by Rodan+Fields once my lashes got to the desired length I would only put it on 2-3 times a week and that seemed to work. But that serum runs for $165 which is a lot. I ended getting lash extensions and ruined my lashes so now I am 2+ years of getting them healthy again. I’ve been wanting to use serum again, and been trying to find a different one. I also heard canola oil helps but just takes longer to see results. So idk what I’m going to do, there’s some research studies and a lot of the lash serums have some sort of side effect. So I guess like you said just do your own research and you decide for yourself if it’s worth it. I can definitely see the frustration with your lashes, when mine were really long the side I slept on did that curve you have and it was super annoying 😆🙈
Great results with Grande lash serum no side effects
I have have been selling and using Revitalash for 6 years now . Never had this kind of experience nor my clients reported anything like this .
My eyelashes are super straight and short so I will I accept these problems
So, in other words you better don’t use it if you have natural long lashes, otherwise you’ll get the spider effect. I have short and straight lashes and this product changed my life for good! Thank you for the video 😘
I loved my lash lift. It is temporary. Maybe they could straighten the curves out:). It doesn’t hurt or burn.
I’ve been using Revitalash for about 2 months, and I’m just noticing a somewhat when I put mascara on, especially if I use lash primer before mascara. I never use eyelash curlers, because I heard years ago that they can pull out lashes and not good for them, especially with heat. Maybe you could use it once or twice a week and get the look you want, but if you are happy with your lashes without a serum, I wouldn’t use one. The serums have side effects and they’re expensive.
You could actually get them permanented. They put a little roller at your lid and put a solution that will roll the eyelashes to the right angle.
I purchased Revitalash (£££ ouch) used it for a week and started seeing dry flaky skin where my eyes would naturally form tears at night, so I ditched it.Expensive mistake. So I just keep using Castor oil or Vaseline at night on the days I wear mascara and my lashes are pretty long naturally too. You can very very slightly trim the tips. I know this sounds crazy but I used to do it to prevent mascara smudging my glasses.
If you love the length & would still like to find a way to keep this going then I defo recommend getting a lash lift. While most people use it to curl their lashes, for you it’ll just set them in place like they used to be. Might be worth a punt.
I really don't want to add another thing I have to do 😅
I’ve got through 2 tubes of this and used it religiously, and it did absolutely nothing to my lashes . Apart from maybe grow a couple of them . Really strange. I bought that one because with it being expensive I thought it’d be a lot better than other ones and safer?! .
I’ve got a 3rd tube sat here unopened ( I buy them when on offer with being so expensive) . But I can’t be arsed with it. Was so disappointed
Man I wish we could have it all I use careprost generic Latisse and the other day it looked like I was losing lashes in a few spots . I think that’s bc of the way they extend the lifecycle and maybe eventually they fall off in chunks.???. I was wondering if you coated the tops of your lashes going downward with a really wet primer and then coat the tops also w a wet after applying the . Maybe that would weigh them down. I always avoids it bc it weigh my lashes down. Just athought.
Yes yes yes.. My lashes did the same thing , but I was using Latisse. They Absolutely curl back on themselves. I can't seem to get them stretched out again.
My lashes are all over the place, not uniform at all. And look like spiders legs. I tried revitilash and I didn’t notice any change but listening to you perhaps the issue was I didn’t try for long enough. I think they’re probably long enough just not thick.
You can use it on your brows just to finish the tube and not throw it away.
I think your lashes are beautiful, but I can see the issue you're having. I use Rapid lash, but it no longer works x
I use maybeline lash serum and my eyelashes grew back weird. Now some lashes grow down wards and stick straight out. My lashed were so nice before n nevwr had problems with mascara. Mascara makes it notble the weird directions my lashes grow now
I also always had amazing, long, naturally curled eye lashes. I then - out of interest - went ahead and used orphica realash and after about 2 months I also started to feel a little uncomfortable with the result. I then stopped and currently use a lash serum without any of those hormones (i.e. prostaglandine etc). it's one that contains a lot of lash caring ingredients like vitamine e, cbd and so on. I think that is what gives more health and strength to the lashes rather than that extensive true growth if you will. I'm quite happy with that now😊 good luck though for getting off revitalash 🍀😘
Thanks for sharing lovely! x
Would you be willing to share what the more friendly serum is called? I’ve been researching them a lot and really don’t know whether or not to bother even though I have no lashes. Thank you 💜💖
Hey Sam, of course. The serum that I use is from a company called „nordic cosmetics“. They are based in Germany. I think you can get their lash serum on amazon if I‘m not mistaken. I hope this helps x
@@glammeup9157 thank you so much. I will try and have a look on Amazon 💖😄💖
@@samb6330 I hope you'll find it :-) xx
Would you try having a lash perm? That way they can set them to the curve you want.
Love are you a side sleeper? The side that is over curling is that your favorite side to sleep on? Good for you for stopping. I've noticed a little difference in your lashes too. All in all ladies we need to love ourselves. Just as we are.
I sleep all over the shop 🤣🤣
not sure if you mentioned on the video and I missed it but, your lashes are great and you said has always been long and curled so why did you start with the serum? not critique, but I was wondering what made you decide for the serum. Thanks.
To make them even better! lol x
@@CharlotteHoldcroft fair enough. Thanks for replying.
Actually, I have the same problem as you. My left eye is fine, it is behaving its self but my right eyelashes are growing in the same direction as yours and the beautician that I go to said that they are growing this way because I sleep on my right side when I'm in bed which is causing them to grow in that way. It's an interesting concept which may or may not be the reason why only one eye has the lashes growing in this way.😏😉
Where did you purchase the Revitalash luv?
Have you considered doing lash lift? I am sure they can modify the treatment according. And get them more straight
Have you tried a lash lift? I’ve seen a lot of people use a lash lift to keep the shape
