So when I started to hear about new<br /> products that can magically grow my lashes I hit Google to search it out<br /> immediately. Initially I found that super expensive product called Latisse and realized<br /> that I could never afford it . But I didn’t give up. Flipping through a beauty<br /> magazine I found reviews of a bunch of products that claim to grow your lashes<br /> and <a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.thebeautyinsiders.com/maxolash.html">Maxolash eyelash product</a>&nbsp;received the top score. I found excellent reviews and a very much<br /> reasonable price so I just went to the site and bought it. &nbsp;A month later I was so glad! For the first<br /> time in my life I had noticeable naturally soft long lashes and mascara<br /> actually makes them look even better rather than just visible like before. Thank<br /> you so much Maxolash. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/diy-eyelash-tinting#post-95308 Sun, 20 Sep 2009 06:23:57 +0000 Chris 95308@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I can see that you might have a steadier hand Angie - plus practice makes perfect. </p> <p>There are lots of organic mascaras on market now but since they don't use the same preservatives, they can actually become more dangerous if bacteria gets into tthe tube - you need to switch out more often I would think. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/diy-eyelash-tinting#post-95208 Sat, 19 Sep 2009 21:47:06 +0000 Sarah 95208@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I can see your point, Angie. If you know you have a steady hand and have had a bad experience with the "pros", by all means.<br /> I think if I had blonde lashes and brows I would be more willing to take the risk. But as it is, mine are very much there without any extra help. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/diy-eyelash-tinting#post-95163 Sat, 19 Sep 2009 17:52:52 +0000 Angie 95163@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I hear you Maya, and I am not trying to sway you at all. What your Mum sees daily is very real and I respect the severity of those situations 100%. You’ve got to agree though, that separating your eyelashes with a safety pin is just plain daft. Daft deluxe. </p> <p>My situation is unique I guess. The reason I started dying my lashes and brows myself is because the pros would keep on getting harmful dye and peroxide in my eyes, whereas I am able to keep it out. I seem to have more control than they do. Ironic I know, but it’s the truth. Now, I’m very practiced at the skill and can do it with my eyes closed (pun intended). </p> <p>Anyway, my experience was personal and not general. That’s the difference I think! I'm sure there are plenty of fabulous eyelash tinting pros out thre who do a fab job :0) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/diy-eyelash-tinting#post-95160 Sat, 19 Sep 2009 17:16:04 +0000 Maya 95160@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sorry Angie, but my mother deals every single day with patients who stab themselves in the eye with mascara wands and the like, so I just can't be moved on this. </p> <p>Actually, she recently saw a patient who separates her eyelashes using a safety pin, which I think is not an unusual thing to do (Audrey Hepburn used to do it). You can guess what happened...</p> <p>It can happen to anyone no matter how careful they try to be. It just makes me cringe. I am not opposed to mascara and used to wear it myself, but I had to be locked in a quiet, enclosed, unmoving space with bright lights and the fullest ability to concentrate. Like Khris, I also would only go for the natural stuff. I draw the line at putting dye and sketchy chemicals anywhere near my eyes. Too traumatized I guess. Luckily I already have long and dark eyelashes though. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/diy-eyelash-tinting#post-95079 Sat, 19 Sep 2009 06:39:08 +0000 fathenry 95079@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sounds scary to me! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/diy-eyelash-tinting#post-95020 Sat, 19 Sep 2009 00:22:30 +0000 Angie 95020@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great stuff, Susan! Thanks for sharing. </p> <p>Maya and Khris, you won’t believe it but I actually do a much better and safer job on my eyes and brows than the so called pros :0). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/diy-eyelash-tinting#post-94955 Fri, 18 Sep 2009 19:10:19 +0000 chewyspaghetti 94955@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The idea of chemicals near my eyes at all scares me. As much as I like the idea of tinting my eyebrows and lashes, I don't think that I could do it. I can't even bring myself to wear normal mascara- I get the "natural" stuff! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/diy-eyelash-tinting#post-94932 Fri, 18 Sep 2009 18:13:53 +0000 Sarah 94932@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Same here! Especially since I wear contacts a lot and I don't want to ruin that ability, as well as my candidacy for laser surgery. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/diy-eyelash-tinting#post-94931 Fri, 18 Sep 2009 18:13:00 +0000 Maya 94931@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The idea of amateurish experimenting with chemicals near my eyes scares the pants off of me. I'd personally rather leave it to a pro. LE says she had it done for $8. I'm sure buying the tint and supplies costs more than $8 anyway. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/diy-eyelash-tinting#post-94929 Fri, 18 Sep 2009 18:10:56 +0000 susand 94929@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have never tried this, but after reading that Angie has been doing her own eyelash tinting for many years, I had to google it. It does sound fairly easy to do.
