Thank you for taking the time to watch my review of the Rodan and Fields Enhancements Lash Boost Serum.

I am not a RF consultant but do love this product! I have been using it off and on for 3 years and love the results. :)
Major fail: rodan & fields has a class action lawsuit against them because the active ingredient in lash boost, isopropyl cloprostenate, is causing ocular infections, swollen & droopy eyelids, swelling, pain, etc. They got around not having it tested by the FDA by marketing it as a cosmetic, despite the fact that they knew isopropyl cloprostenate has serious side effects that could ultimately lead to blindness. They failed to disclose any warnings because they didn't want it to hurt sales. Isopropyl cloprostenate is used to treat glaucoma. However, glaucoma patients are *informed* of these side effects and can decide on their own if the risks outweigh the benefits. Lash boost customers can't because they aren't informed. Isopropyl cloprostenate is banned in Canada. If you know anyone using this, you should tell them to discontinue use ASAP.
I had a terrible reaction from this product. The skin around my eyes was so red and irritated I didn’t want to leave my house. I contacted my consultant and the company, and they made me feel as if I was the only one that had this experience. The company told me they would give me a refund but never did.
I won't even deal with MLM products anymore because if you don't like them, people get so nasty where their income. You don't get the same response with regular companies and stores, who are more concerned with large scale consumer satisfaction. There are also complaints this product causes permanent vision damage. :(
Oh yikes! I had not heard about the permanent vision damage. I'll have to look that up. I am honestly not even sure R&F have a money back promise on their products. I would think they probably would. I would for sure ask for my money back if I had actually bought this stuff. My lashes are still so short and rough looking right now. And I recorded this a couple weeks ago.
I heard the vision problems came from the prescription product but maybe I'm mistaken. I also heard the prescription product can change the color of your irises!
The vision issues are directed to Rodan and Fields specifically, with people left with blurry vision. All lash boosters can change iris color in light eyes for some people. That's been a known side effect since they came out.
I have greener eyes now since I started using Latisse. They didn't go brown but the green is more intense. I don't mind as they were really not that pretty before and they are great now. I am put off this product now. I use expensive skincare and the reviews I am hearing aren't that great. Some of them are ok. Most are mixed at best. It's very expensive for not much benefit. I think I will stick with the devil I know.
I've used both Woo Lash and now using Rapid Lash without any progress at all. I just ordered a tube of Roden and Fields because my friends lashes are off the charts. I may not be a candidate for any lash serum at all maybe it's an age thing (over 65) and my lashes have never be plush all my life. Wish me luck, this is my last attempt and then I'll give up. Your opinion was tastefully presented... It is what it is
My friend was raving about this product and how it made her lashes practically touch her eyebrows. The reason why she stopped using it was because apparently Lash Boost has similar ingredients to what is used on cancer patients (something like that), and her skin is super fair so she got these super dark purple circles under her eyes. I was honestly willing to try the product despite that because I wanted the results and have more melanin, but your review and the other comments have changed my mind!
Active ingredient of this serum isisopropyl cloprostenate, which is a type of medication called a prostaglandin analog that has a lot of very dangerous side effects, some of which can be permanent. But because its labeled as "cosmetics" R and F doesn't have to go through FDA approval. Check out the class action lawsuit against the company. Take care of your health.
Hope your eyelashes are back to normal by now. I’ve been using R&F for 3 days, but my eyes have had the burning feeling that made me tear up and I would wake up with crusty, red eyes. I’m going to try and return this product for a refund. All these stories about the side-effects of this product are very scary.
They did thankfully return to normal after stopping use. Never again though lol!
I started using this months ago. Maybe in December, (2018) so about 8ish months ago. At first my lashes were amazing. They looked so pretty. I started to use it twice a day even. If I put it on before my mascara my lashes looked so fake. I loved it because they were real! I had a few times here and there for a few weeks where I would forget to use it for a few days and only use it off and on. My lashes stayed beautiful. THEN, in July (10th, 2019) I used it one morning and the outside of my eyelid started to burn. It burned not itched. My left eyelid and under the left bottom of my eyelid started to turn red. It’s now August (2019) and this same area on my face is still red. It’s dry like it’s trying to heal itself but it’s taking forever and not only that it’s weird. It’s wrinkly in JUST the spot it burned in and has been red. I’m 35 years old. People think I’m 27/28 all the time. I don’t have wrinkles and I don’t really have fine lines. But I have this weird red ring around my eye lid that’s made my skin dry. I’m so annoyed with it because it will burn from time to time. I tried a new moisturizer last night thinking it would help it and it irritated it more and caused my eye to swell today.
I haven’t used Lash Boost since that week of July 10th. Within that week I stopped using it for a few days then tried one more time and it burned me again so I screwed myself over.
I will say I tried Rapid Lash last week (August 12th, 2019), even with this nasty weird redness around my left eye. Rapid Lash did not irritate my redness and in fact in 3 days of using it I had several comments on how full and long my lashes were. I never got complements on my lashes when I used R+F.
I am so disappointed and sad about my R+F not working and actually hurting me. I was really liking my super long lashes. But I think I’m starting to see the same results with rapid lash.
This is exactly why I never trust MLM products because they are usually sub par mediocre or not good at all. The consultants just go above and beyond promoting them, and then silence all the negative reviews. I honestly believe they use tons of photoshop and editing to falsely advertise in the before and after pictures.
I received R&F Lash Boost from a friend & had used it for 4weeks, saw amazing results, then started to see exactly what you experienced & I googled these side effects & came across this video. I thought I was the only one experiencing this. My lashes now have major gaps & they’re half the length they use to be & I can’t get them to grow back! :( Going to give rapid lash a try. Thank you for your honest review!!
Update: I’ve now been using the RapidLash(bought at Ulta) since the recommendation of this video(2weeks) & the length & strength of my lashes has been amazing! No thinning, crazy uneven growth spurts, or super curly random lashes. Love it! Thank you for your honest review & recommendation!🙏🏼

I love Lash Boost. I had major lash loss after struggling with thyroid issues. After struggling for a year I tried this and they filled in!!! I was shocked and so surprised. Lash Boost has given me my lashes back. I totally agree somethings work for some people and not for others. Nothing is fool proof. I love my long, healthy, full lashes. After having been so embarrassed about not having lashes it feels SOOOO good to have lashes again! Sorry you had a poor experience with this product.
Lash serum don't work unless it contains a prostaglandin such as Latisse. Each eyelash, or any hair on your body, goes through three stages. The first stage is the only stage in which growth happens. So even if a hair doesn't fall out when it would naturally it's not going to continue to grow. Latisse works by keep the hairs in the growth cycle longer.
Found your video while googling “does lash boost make your lashes fall out?” Because I wanted to see if other people had the same experience as I did. My first experience was amazing and don’t recall lashes falling out, although they may have but I might have justified it by acknowledging that I stopped using it after the bottle ran out. However, second time around, EXACT SAME EXPERIENCE AS YOU! The peak lash growth lasted for maybe two weeks, tops, and then the clumps of lash fall out and spacing with the random long lashes ensued. I realized there is a growth and fall out phase, but it simply doesn’t make sense, scientifically, that they’d all be falling out at the rate they were and in clumps, when they never would normally do that, long or short. I had to use strip lashes for a week or so that looked silly because they really didn’t have much to stick to and blend with. Now they are growing back naturally and I’m very happy with them. Puts things into perspective ... what I really didn’t appreciate was the defense by the RF sales rep. If it’s a client experience, it shouldn’t be argued with. It’s happening and that’s it.
The amount of R&F sales rep vitriol that I have deleted off this video is epic lol. Blows my mind how defensive they are. I’m always like look, my damn lashes FELL out. You can’t defend that lol. I’m sorry this happened to you as well. There was a lawsuit at one point for this specific product. I need to see where it ended up.
MrKongsMom 100%... just acknowledge that it happened and even if it was a miraculous coincidence, at least acknowledge that it could have been someone’s individual experience that truly happened because of it. Just like people can eat healthy and have an allergy to an otherwise whole, natural food. 🤷🏼♀️
I have been using Lash Boost between 4-5 weeks. I have taken pictures when a first started as well as now and have not noticed a difference in length, thickness or color. I have not experienced discoloration, but my eyes do get extremely dry after using this product. I have watched multiple reviews and in their before and after pictures I have a hard time seeing a difference, with out a date stamp I would not be able to pick out which lash is longer. Overall I feel like Lash Boost make make lashes longer over time, but if I'm paying $150 a bottle I expect to see a noticeable difference at a glance, not a picture I have to stare and and possible see a difference with.
It seems like most people notice the biggest difference around week 8 so my opinion may change in time, however based on other peoples before and after pictures I doubt it
I’m a Medical Esthetician and despise R & F. I have clients come in all the time with skin issues from using their products 😑🤦🏻♀️ and don’t get me started on the “reps” 🙄
Sounds terrible. I'm glad you spoke out about your experience! I'm definitely not a fan of lash boost. It worked in the beginning... my lashes got super long within 1-2 months, but my eyes would get so dry and irritated from the stuff. I decided to stop using it every night, and changed to about every 3rd day. My lashes started falling out and breaking off mid lash. It was awful. Six months after completely discontinuing it, my lashes are finally back to normal and filling in.
My first experience with Rodan and Fields Lash Boost was good. I had very short lashes and they made them long. Then I just got a lash lift/tint and they looked great (I hate to wear mascara so do this in lieu). Then I ran out and my order got lost and I didn't have any for a good 6 weeks. Then when I got my second tube, I had the same experience you did. I was almost in tears and contacted another friend who i knew used it to see if she ever had this experience. She said she did not and urged me to keep going. I did keep going and it straightened out and I now have longer lashes again. It does contain a growth hormone so you have to decide if you are ok with that. I am very sensitive so can't believe I can get by with using this but I seem to be able to and it makes my lashes long enough to get a lash lift (they were so short before you couldn't even see the lashes when I got a lift) and look good without mascara.
my mom is an eye doctor and when i told her i started this product she freaked out because she has clients who have sunken in eyes and random brown spots on their blue eyes due to use of this product
I have the bald spot on one eye. I'm glad to hear I'm not the only one. I thought it was just me!
Me too!
I love my lashes with RF lash boost but 100% agree it may not work for everyone.
I have been a Rapidlash user for several years and it works well for me. Every once in a while, when I feel like taking a break, I just use a little plain ol' Castor oil at night to keep my lashes conditioned. I also use the Rimmel Lash Accelarator as a primer under whatever else is my mascara of the moment.
Wow that's scary. Thanks for sharing your experience. And also thanks for the Costco tip.
I’m a delivery driver and one of my customers has been trying to get me to actually quit my job with Fedex a really good job and start selling R&f 😱 she wants me to pay over $900 for a kit and says the product sells itself. Hummmm... pyramid schemes drive me nuts!
Obviously I will never do that 🤦🏼♀️😳 I’ve got bills and a child to take care of and gosh daycare preschool full time.
After watching this I’m happy not getting into this company!
I don’t even wear much makeup and I’m turning 37 this Sunday. I only wear eye makeup and lips my face is just facial cream and maybe a tad blush or highlights shimmer powder I wear no foundation at all and my skin is amazing! Ppl think I’m in my early 30’s and not 37!
I suggest drink lots of water! Eat healthy! And wear less makeup makes more beauty! Less is more! Makeup actually ages you!!!
I read this today and was so excited about Lash Boost. I used it exactly right but my eyelids started to get red and itch. I did call and let the person know the problem but was told I was the only person that had happened to. Long story but lashes were beautiful now not as thick and I was not offered any money back. Just told as I said, no one had the problem but me. Now I read online there are law suits concerning this. Upset for the money spent but mostly what I went through.
Patricia Graham .....I had the exact same experience as you. You’re not the only one!
Patricia, Rodan and Fields has a 60 day, 100% refund on all their products. I Donn't know who your consultant was, but it it was only 60 days you are owed a refund. Perhaps, you were beyond that deadline?
@@peggyb3 it is too late but did not know about the money back at the time and was never mentioned by person I purchased it from. Thanks for the information anyway.
M2 works wonders. After 3 weeks i could c a major change. No irritation or side effects. Not sure if available in the usa. Made in germany.
I have that weird curling in and lashes growing in different directions also! It also gave my eyes a puffy, swollen feeling, like i can't open my eyes completely anymore (droopy?). So annoying
Thanks so much for your honesty. I was about to buy the serum, and now I will put that $ towards something else. I seriously almost bought this last night!
It sounds like there are plenty of people who this did work for so it might still be worth a try.... if there is actually a money back guarantee on it. I'd hate to recommend this for $150 and have it do what it did on my lashes though!
I stated using Rodan and Fields Lash Serum September 2017. I saw great results but I have a bare spot on my upper left eye now. I can put my pinkie there. There is new growth starting though, thank goodness! I started using GrandeLash about 4 days ago. I am hoping I will be happy with it. If not, I will try the Rapid Lash next time.
So glad to hear this! I have HUGE chunks gone now.... I thought I had a medical problem!! THANK YOU!

I thought I was crazy! I have a bald spot also!
I have never used R&F. I have used Babe Lash and Grande. Loved them both and had great results. I have a co-worker who swears by R&F and has gorgeous lashes. It's hard to tell. I think body chemistry may have something to do with it. Thanks for this, though. It's definitely not something I would want to pay that kind of money for and be disappointed, let alone the opposite of what I was trying to accomplish!
I tried lash boost a year ago...after 2 nights of using it, I noticed a chunk of lashes missing from my right eye. It’s been a year and the lashes that were missing have now grown back but they’re shorter than the rest of my lashes. It’s embarrassing to wear mascara. I threw the serum away along with my eye cream from R+F because 3 jars of that didn’t do a thing for my dark circles
Omgosh I’m so sorry 😟 I don’t know if you would be open to something like this, but I use vitamin E oil on my lashes by just applying with a clean wand and wearing it overnight. I can’t say if it would make your grow but it could help nourish them while they repair. I’ve read that castor oil is a good option too! 😊 I think coconut oil is a viable option also 🤔
This was a terrific review and I appreciate you telling us about it. This was really terrific. Much love, Melissa
Yikes! That’s definitely not good. Thanks for sharing your experience. I think it’s important to hear everyone’s experience because someone else might also have something similar happen.
My friend uses this lash serum and I was seriously considering buying it because her lashes are noticeably longer. But after your review I am reconsidering. I’m going to try rapidlash instead.
Same- the other day I asked a friend if she had fake lashes on or extensions and she had just started using the R&F. She doesn't sell it or anything, it just for sure worked for her. Her lashes looked amazing. But this weird reaction has me second guessing trying it.

Did you come from Blair's video?
Wow! I'm starting to review this product and I met a Consultant that today talking to help her to promote here in Canada and she denied this Company having this kind the situations so I send her this video plus the research I did in Google Jan 17, 2018 an issues with SKIN CANCER.
So,🤔 I'm like are you for real if they are medical as she claims!
🤔 Should be a doctor or dermatologist or some body that have knolwge of this kind the medine or CHEMICAL? 🤔🤔🤔
Hmmm! 🙄🙄She want to send me her TRUE information. 😣😣😣
So what is so private true information have to send me 🤔? 🤔.
It's this information is real why this Consultants have families and kids will aloud others get hurt? Because, money?...
R they that sinister that can produce maybe blinded or cancer to sell the products and go home take care their families and hurting others?🤔🤔🤔
Wow! It's any place where people can prove this with doctor or dermatologist veterans that can prove this?
Because, I looked this video and serious accusation was practically expose ...So, can you imagen your little girl get to your cosmetic bag like my princess is 7 years old ?
This is very delicate situation.
Claudia Peralta I had no idea they sold the R + F in Canada. I thought they were banned?
Thank you for this review! So many people rave about R&fields but it's good to hear another side of the story and that all products may not work for everyone
This happened to me while using lash boost! My lashes have big gaps between them. They are crossing over each other, growing all misdirected! But my eyes are also very dry, red, and inflamed now. I used Latisse for years with no problem and decided to order the lash boost for convenience so that I didn't have to drive to the doctor's office to buy Latisse. I thought they were pretty much the same product except Latisse provides you with individual disposable applicators to use on each eye. You aren't dipping the wand back in. I've been seeing an ophthalmologist for a month now and having to take prescription meds and drops. I am so discouraged, I don't think my eyes will ever be normal again.
Lisa Murphy I am glad I know I’m
Not the only one having a bad experience and wonky lashes from Lash Boost! Fortunately I’m within the 60 day return window (this is my second bottle of it) and will discontinue use and return this week!
I was JUST about to purchase this product!!
Thank god I came across your review!
You should try careprost , generic for Latisse.
You should know that ALL lash boost serums have the same ingredient that is causing problems w/ R+F's LashBoost. That's precisely why Latisse is a prescription only product. That R+F didn't disclose this information is the big problem. And obviously, different products have different formulas, some of which may irritate your eyes and others that might not. But I too am really glad that @MrKongsMom posted this review. I definitely will NOT be recommending LashBoost to anyone going forward until this issue is resolved. I can't in good conscience! Thank you to the OP for this very fair and measured review. Eye opening (no pun intended)!
Ingredient:
isopropyl cloprostenate
"Latisse has well-documented side effect potential. The main active ingredient bimatoprost is a chemical known as a prostaglandin analogue. Prostaglandins are chemical compounds found in naturally within almost all of our body's tissue that are responsible for signaling inflammation within the body. As such, it's no surprise that Latisse has been associated with common symptoms of inflammation around the eyes like swollen lids (also called chemosis), redness, itching, and watering."

I am so sorry you had such a bad expedience with this lash growth serum. I use Revitalash and have had a great experience. I even use it in my eyebrow tails, which were thinning due to age. I think it even worked better in my eyebrows.
Oh that's good to hear about your brows. I have not tried any growth serums on my brows. I may try some but not until my microblading fades more. i am afraid it will cause it to fade faster right now lol. Trying desperately to hold on to my pigment lol!
I have the roden and fields and my lashes are back as when I was in my 20’s but as you said it depends...great video and review! Xx
There’s also a lot of fakes out there being sold online...does anyone know how to spot a fake lash boost?
Thanks for sharing your experience. I just don’t buy into it. I see post after post on FB from friends that say how drastic their results are. I literally can’t see a difference. Hope your lashes improve quickly.
I am writing my from my husband's account, so yes I'm a chic. I have used this product for a year now, never used a lash serum ever. At first it was amazing. Thick, long, perfect everything I always wanted my lashes to be. I was stopped so many times by co-workers- Im a teacher, family, people thought I had fake lashes. I even turned my aunt intonitnwho has breast cancer and lost eyelashes, if pay for her's bc it is expensive. I had the red and itchy but I thought it was worth it. The last few months I really do my think it'sstopping working. At first it was the random long one, then the random bald stops, now shedding, and they kinda just stopped. I'd go through periods where I got busy and did my use it, I have two small kids, and I thought it would give my lashes a break. But now I'm just over it and want a better resolution especially for my aunt she's still in love with the product and I'm now worried what it could do to her long term given her health.
John Donovan same experience!
I'm glad you said this. I used this, my poor mom paid for this for me. It was $150! And I got NOTHING. Rodan & Fields is a pyramid scheme that barely works. I have Asian eyelashes, so they stick straight out and don't hold a curl. I got eyelash extensions instead and like those way better haha
So agree it's all a scheme. I don't trust their ads at all!
Oh my goodness, I'm experiencing the same EXACT thing with Lash Boost. My lashes were growing and looking great, then I noticed on one eye, I have areas of really short lashes (like way shorter than before I ever used Lash Boost) and other areas of very long lashes. In addition, some areas of very long lashes are oddly curled and my lashes fall out like crazy. I'm devastated and so frustrated. My lashes were naturally long and beautiful and now they look horrible.
Arely they back to normal?
Maybe it's just your body chemistry. I've tried all the brands that you mentioned and couldn't use because they irritated my lids terribly. But R&F doesn't bother my lids and my lashes grow SO long that I have to skip for a few weeks.
You say that you don't want to bash a brand but you did a pretty good job bashing this product.
Yes, because it made my lashes fall out lol. There have actually been lawsuits about this particular product. Please enjoy it if it works for you but don’t discredit other people’s experiences just because they don’t match yours.
I have no skin in any game. No channels, nothing. I used this once... I had weirdly long lashes ( only 2 ) otherwise it didn't seem to work. I admit I did not use it consistently.
That was a few years ago. I am giving it another go because I paid so much. I am day 4 or five but I have to be honest- my eyelids are irritated.
It has not deterred me from continuing... I have not tried anything else.
That sounds awful! I would stop using that product right away!
It's bad. I feel so bad about the experience I didn't ever tell my friend. I know she would feel terrible and I don't want her to feel bad about it. Not her fault. But I can safely say I will never be repurchasing this one lol!
I had similar problems and thought it was just me ... good grief, throwing it OUT

I love lash boost, not their price. However, I am interest in rapid lash now. Thanks!
Also, I have had my bottle forever and was talking to a friend that said that they do have a shelf life... maybe you got a really old one. I wouldn't pay $150 to risk that.
Melanie...I'm so sorry to hear that the R&F Lash Boot ruined your lashes! I've never tried any lash serums because I've always been afraid of what may happen. I've been trying to get brave enough to try RapidLash because I know you've enjoyed it in the past. I noticed on Amazon when I put RapidLash in my cart that they have a product called RapidBrow. Just curious...have you ever considered trying it? It sounds interesting and I wonder how well it would work for those of us with sparse brows if the RapidLash works well?!
I tried the lash boost a couple years ago. I might as well have just put water on my lashes. My lashes absolutely did not do anything. I was so upset that I spent the money on a product that did not work at all.
It's crazy how different the results can be from this serum. Some people get lashes that go to their eyebrows and other's see nothing or the exact opposite.
This wasn’t out a couple of years ago. It’s fairly new. I’m wondering if maybe you were using a different product?
I am not sure why products work for some and not for others but I have had very nice results from Lash Boost. friends notice them. I am sorry that you did not have same results
I use this product about a month ago. Couple days ago I notice a gap in my eye lashes as well. I'm a bit upset about this.
I shared this on FB. I’m sick of seeing people raving about this on my newsfeed. The before and after pictures that supposedly prove growth are obviously different angles. I bet that some of the RF consultants I unfollowed ages ago will unfriend me 🙃
Melissa Thorne I see the same on FB. Just last week another friend posted before and after pics saying how she couldn’t believe the drastic change. I literally saw no difference. I’ve seen many posts with supposedly awesome results and see no improvement.
I have used this for 8 months and I have had amazing results...not always false or different angles.
AGREE. It definitely changed my eye lashes and my moms. I think just like with anyone, everyone has difference experiences. Some products work for others and some don't.
Lol I'm not a consultant. But my step mom is my proof. Her eyelashes sucked a year ago, when I last went to see her they were incredible! I couldn't stop staring at them and didn't even hear anything she said when she was talking to me. So it does work. You're on crack. No offense.
Boots No 7 has a lash serum, called Fanomenal, which works and is $10. Smashbox also makes a lash serum that is cheaper. I’m sorry you had such a disappoiting experience.
Alexandra Cordaro thanks for the tip
I’m using it now. And I’d prefer careprost, which is cheaper. I’m getting a bit a length but no thickness like with careprost
Got a tube and loved it. However, I’m not seeing the same results with the second tube. Thought maybe I got a dud, so I bought another. Think this will be my last. My eyelids itch like crazy and since I keep rubbing them, the lashes in the inner corner of my eyes have broken off. After seeing this review and another, I’m going to try something else. I’m not spending this much money for something that’s not working.
Thanks for your review. I love your honesty and appreciate your efforts not to offend while sharing your experience. I would’ve liked to have see photos of the crazy lash growth that you experienced. But that’s just me being a sticky beak. 😉
One thing to know about my channel if you don't already... I don't edit anything lol. I don't know how to use iMovie so non of my videos ever have any type of editing, including adding pictures. I realize that is irritating to some but honestly I don't really have time to learn and keep up with my regular uploading schedule right now. I am not sure what lash growth you are mentioning because there was none from this serum lol (maybe the Rapidlash?). BUT, I did just post a picture on my instagram yesterday where I am giving my daughter a kiss on the cheek and I am not wearing any makeup/mascara in particular. You can see how painfully short and stubby my lashes are right now thanks to this serum. This video is pre-recorded from a couple weeks ago but my lashes have still not recovered yet. I am hopeful they start to grow on their own again soon :(
I must be the exception because I've used it for eight months and I've had AMAZING results. I'm not a consultant or affiliate. I had a friend selling it and did a fundraiser for my terminally ill son. I bought it with my own money during the fundraiser and I love it. My lashes were good to start, but now it looks like I have falsies on!
Hey there hunny. Major fail indeed, that sounds scary! Sending ya some BIG HUGS! Sharon
Hi Melanie, I've been using Neulash for the past two years, and I've been very happy with the results. I don't have crazy long lashes, but they are long and full. When I put mascara on, they look great! I do get compliments on my lashes, so it must be working. The main reason I wanted to try a lash serum is because I was getting gaps in my lashes, and I wasn't happy with the way they were looking. I thought about trying false lashes, but didn't want to have to deal with that everyday. A lash serum seemed like the best option for me, and I am so happy I tried it. I love the way my lashes look now! I have sensitive eyes, and I've never experienced any type of irritation from this serum. The large tube is a little costly, but it does last a long time. Definitely money well spent! For those in Canada, it's available on line at Hudson's Bay. One more thing I forgot to mention.....it even improves your bottom lashes. I had almost no lashes on the outer half of my bottom lash line, on the left eye, and now they've all grown back in! It obviously transfers to the bottom while you're sleeping.
I do experience same thing. I thought the gap and the weird growth was natural. It was working fine for first 2 months.
I have been using R+F lash boost for ~1 year now and now I have constant twitching of my right eyelid..... be careful with this product!
A "twitching" eye is due to a lack of magnesium.
Thank you for the review! Was curious about this product for awhile now!!! I’ll just stick to my rapid lash when I can remember to use it, lol
Unfortunately, people think that when they hear a negative review, it means the product does not work or is bad. Every single product out there will not work for 100% of the people. Everyone has different skin, different skin issues, different allergies, reactions etc to things. In my experience, people who have had a negative reaction to a product has either applied it incorrectly, (which believe it or not, sounds silly but totally true)something as little as applying a bit too much could completely change the result. Or sometimes people just can not tolerate a certain product. Nothing out there is for everyone. But in my experience and my research, thousands and thousands of people do really like this product. I personally love it. I am disappointed for people that have not gotten the same results as I have bc I have gotten amazing results with it but I can totally understand that it is not for everyone. However the amount of positive results far out weigh the negative. So I just hope that people would decide for themselves if it is for them or not. Like I said, I can appreciate everyone’s opinion, good or bad bc everyone is different. I just love this product so much that I hope people would try it for themselves and not get discouraged by some of the negative ones without trying for themselves first. Bc I can not say enough good things about this product. This is the only product that I would ever ever rave about bc it has given me the best results out of any cosmetic product that I have ever used.
I am happy that you love this product and will continue to use it. I am very aware that things work differently on each invidual person. I am very happy with my Rapid Lash product and it works amazing for me when I actually stick to using it as I am supposed to according to the direction. I am not one who throws my money around with out researching it first. I have been watching @mrkongsmom since she started and think very highly of her opinion. It is like having my younger sister sitting with me talking to me. I don’t think she is just some random person that I found and heard one time give an opinion and I am going to discount the entire product. I was excited for her to try out this product and review it for us. If in the future my Rapid Lash quits working and I have to look for another product then I will go out and do my research which includes talking to my friends and getting opinions. Thank you so much for your concern and I am happy that this product works so well for you!!! Best to you in the future!!!
My eyelashes on the bottom r non existent do to an illness yrs ago I was gifted the RF to try n I still dnt have many eyelashes on the bottom!!! Right now I can’t afford keep trying diff serums so if I wear makeup I jus embrace what I got n play up my lower lash line in other ways or I may pop on a few false eyelash singles!!!!
I’m sorry your illness caused that! I use vitamin E oil on my lashes as I told Melanie. Castor oil and coconut oil are relatively inexpensive options that may help protect the lashes you do have, perhaps even allowing them to grow. Thought I would share, hope you’re doing well! Good luck! ☺️
I use Rodan and Fields lash boost and I have never ever had any problems. I think it’s amazing honestly. A few times I have had to cut them. I’m sure if someone gave me something for free I would not care how I used it in my regimen. But I paid $150 and made it work. Lol
Elizabeth McEldery Okay R and F employee. We see you.
Absolutely so obvious that this person is not for real.
I been using the product and I’m seen results Already I was giving this eye-lash booster by my boss and my lashes are growing and I have no complaints about it.
Sylv's Bar I've had great results too!
This product worked great for me for awhile then I noticed my eyelids were darkened and my eyes started to get very dry also . I’ve stopes using lash boost but my eyes are still dry .
Oh wow! I'm sorry to hear that :( This just seems like a problematic product.
I used the peter Thomas Roth one and returned it immediately
Eyebrow routine please
I actually have one up already :) It's in of my most recent Microblading update video. I show exactly how I do my brows now that I have the microblading :)
Good morning hun. Hope your week is awesome.
That’s exactly what happened to me and I got dark circles around my eyes.
Wow! Glad I've stuck with Rapidlash even through all the hype over this R+F lash serum! So many people on my FB friends push it hard!
Jessica Kindle i too love Rapidlash!!!
Where do you get it at
Princess Stephanie Degroot I get it at Ulta, it's cheaper at Costco thought like Melanie mentioned, if you have a membership of course.
I absolutely LOVE RapidLash! I can't believe how long my lashes have grown. I barely had any eyebrows and hated the filled-in look with brown pencils. I now have real eyebrows. I order mine online from Costco.
Exactly what happened to me.
Wow! I’m so sorry you didn’t like it. I started using it about 6 months ago after losing a lot of lashes with extensions. My lashes have never been longer or more voluminous in my life! I hope this doesn’t happen to me. They try to push other products on me, but this is all I buy from them.
I'm glad you are having luck! Im jealous lol. I guess I will stick with the rapid lash since I know it works and doesn't give me the wonky lashes. Did you lashes grow in properly?
MrKongsMom Yes, I’ve had no problems at all. I’ve heard a lot of positive reviews on rapid lash as well!
thanks for being so honest ---product is overrated.
I used this. First tube I had nice results. 2nd tube nothing.
Awe, bummer. Did you ask your consultant what could possibly cause that??? I never did tell my gf what a fail this was for me. I felt to badly about it :(
MrKongsMom I didn't mention it. She has done my nails for 20 years and she is new to selling R/f products. I felt bad. Just told her too pricey for me.
Honestly that is kind of a major downside of this whole MLM thing, you don't always feel like you can go back to the person you bought something from and let them know about your unhappy experience. At least I feel that way. I'd feel terrible even if I had paid for the product going back to my friend and complaining. I'd rather deal with a company like Sephora or Ulta, instead of a rep of the brand. Buying from someone you know makes it a super personal experience and I just don't know that I'd be down for that necessarily. I'd honestly rather not know the person lol!
Exactly!!!
I'm not having the same results that you did. Trying to decide on which one to try next.
I’m having the exact problem!!!!!!!!
Sucks about your experience. Thank you for sharing with us
I’m sorry that happend... I sell R+F... I don’t know why that happend to you, I guess everyone is different I personally had a little bit of both results, at first I noticed nothing, then I did notice some areas that look like I was balding in areas and I did experience a little of the funkiness I’d lashes going in different directions, however I didn’t pay too much attention tio. To it bc my eyelashes have bald before due to mascara or when I would wash my eyes if not using the proper eye makeup remover etc. However after continuing to use lash boost and I guess all of the old lashes falling off the new lashes that grew were definately longer and straighter and have been looking great... the food thing about R+F is that they know that everyone’s results may be different and what works for someone might not work for another which is why they do offer 100% money back up to 60 days regardless of if you return the bottle empty. I wish restaurants would do that... there’s been so many times I go out to eat and something I ate didn’t sit well w my stomach... that was money wasted... can’t send that back. Thank you for sharing your review and personal experience wo bashing the company bc of a product not working for you personally.
Malachi Simmons my mom is an eye doctor and when i told her i started this product she freaked out because she has clients who have sunken in eyes and random brown spots on their blue eyes due to use of this product... i suggest not selling it :/
I’m using babe lash and have been experiencing the same problems! What’s up with all these serums!
Kimmie Kimkim I tried babe lash and my eyes were fire engine red and sensitive to light. I threw it out after day 3. I thought Bout trying this one because I know a few people that have amazing long lashes but I am second guessing it after all these comments and this video
Thank you so much.i was about to buy it..again thank you for your honesty
Has anyone tried the R+F Bright Eye Complex?
Thank you!
Yet she’s a sales rep?
Who is a sales rep? My friend who gave me the product? She is actually no longer affiliated with R&F.
Not her, her friend
I was talked into becoming a rep for this Co but it didn’t last long. It’s very expensive and doesn’t work any better than much cheaper stuff + S&H is super high. Just a giant MLM scheme.
Really? I was considering signing up. You are saying not to now? I am using very expensive skin care now and it is good stuff. I have noticed good results. I really wanted lash boost work for me. I use bimataprost which is generic Latisse and I have good lash growth but I have a bald patch. My eyebrows are quite dark and my hair is light. I have to use lighter products on them to colour them a bit because they are so dark. Really it's a no go?
the same thing happened me too
Sorry if I missed a link but was wondering what color/brand of eyebrow pencil you use - I need that color! Thanks!!
I had the same issue with the curly lashes and an area where there were n lashes. I also have reddened and droopy lids and I am hoping resolves. Would never recommend this product.
Stop using it! if you are having bad effects dont keep using it the prostogandins in the product causes droopy eyelids so if you have that it won't get better but it will get worse if you kep using it.
My question is how long did you use the Lash Boost? When you purchase Rodan and Fields you have access to highly trained staff that know what questions to ask you to find the best solutions for you. The majority of the people that I know who have had problems were applying it incorrectly or not giving it enough time to do it's job. I applied false lashes every day for years. I did have a rough start very similar to yours...however, after 3 months my lashes look amazing!
I used it for over two months. And I have been using lash serums for years. I know how to apply a lash serum lol. I used it in the evening after my skincare routine. I have never had lash loss with any other serum. Much less deformed lashes growing in. Thankfully my lashes are recovering. But I would never recommend this product to a friend based on what it did to mine. Are you aware there is a lawsuit going on by other who have used this serum and had adverse results? Some worse than mine.
Highly trained 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 I’m dead
Funny you and maybe one or 2 others have commented this way, denying any awareness or that it is happening to more people than not! How do people sleep at night?
How long have you used the lash boost!?
It was well over two months probably closer to 3.
Lovely bone structure
Tbh I've never needed leash growth products i have thick long lashes already it runs in the family but on my right eye in the corner has been itching and lashes fell out in that one spot so i used it on that spot and I've accidentally gotten it in my eyes 3 times and my eyes have been blurry off and on since ! Now I know the side effects i WONT use it anymore !!! It helped grow the lashes back but then it also drys my lashes out o.0..weird..guess it's not for everyone but i don't like the thought of going blind !! And i already have blurriness on and off now..scary and very disappointing. .
My lashes grew so much from this lash boost!! Crazy to think you had such a weird experience and odd, and honestly you said you’ve been using lash boost for years and I can’t tell that either.. also odd lol
Lindsey Hurley now everyone is being exposed for telling the truth or not. She obviously told the truth as have thousands of others. Anyone who did not suffer the bad side effects would clearly at least be supportive and doing research, not making up their own false stories.
💜💜💜
Love my Lash Boost!!!
Stacy Zachary a year later with all of the legal problems and true claims against this company, how do you feel now about not telling the truth??
Exactly what happened to me.
