Also, I don't know if it is due to the monthly facials or not, but my eyebrows are not sparse anymore. I am 57 and I really noticed it in the past month how much they have filled in. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/eyelash-products-besides-latisse#post-1254441 Sat, 17 May 2014 23:24:24 +0000 DonnaF 1254441@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Castor oil applied with a Q-Tip to the lash line can help a bit.&nbsp; I found that it definitely made a noticeable difference to thinning and over plucked areas of my eyebrows.&nbsp; It seemed to help a bit at the bald corners of my upper lashes, but I am too lazy to use it regularly. . . </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/eyelash-products-besides-latisse#post-1176432 Mon, 24 Feb 2014 18:15:24 +0000 Peri 1176432@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow, Viva, I don't think I can do any of those things! Her lashes look great for sure though. It seemed kind of strange she said something about latisse and vanity, when she gets eyelash extensions and dyes them! How is that less vain?! I think she is joking though. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/eyelash-products-besides-latisse#post-1175293 Sun, 23 Feb 2014 19:12:56 +0000 viva 1175293@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This article might be of interest.

It isn't as dramatic as the Latisse effect but definitely increases the density and length of the lashes and it is reasonably priced. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/eyelash-products-besides-latisse#post-1174429 Sat, 22 Feb 2014 14:56:17 +0000 Peri 1174429@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Glory...only while you are using it.

So confused about what to do! For online reviews that rave about products, for all I know they are the ones selling the stuff. I can't be sure it is a real, independent review.&nbsp;</p> <p>Hmmm. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/eyelash-products-besides-latisse#post-1173953 Fri, 21 Feb 2014 23:16:54 +0000 ironkurtin 1173953@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The Latisse site says that eye darkening can occur and it may be permanent.&nbsp; So weird! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/eyelash-products-besides-latisse#post-1173913 Fri, 21 Feb 2014 22:48:00 +0000 lyn* 1173913@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hmm, I didn't know people actually got good results with Latisse - it's good to know. I've seen the eyelid darkening, but I have only seen a few people on the medication.</p> <p>I can't think of any other meds that have "long eyelashes" as a side effect :p </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/eyelash-products-besides-latisse#post-1173769 Fri, 21 Feb 2014 20:18:52 +0000 Echo 1173769@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The active ingredient in Latisse very, VERY rarely changed eye colour (darkened it) when applied directly to the cornea as treatment for glaucoma. When applied directly to the cornea, the risk of eye colour change was less than 1%.&nbsp;In Latisse testing, it never changed eye colour. Indeed, putting aside first-person testimonials (which are notoriously unreliable), I'm not sure there has ever been a substantiated case of Latisse changing eye colour when used as directed. If using it directly on the cornea produced change in less than 1% of users, the risks of it actually changing eye colour when applied to the lash line is almost non-existent.</p> <p>I am not sure there is any product that can compete with Latisse. Most OTC products only "condition" lashes to make them less likely to break. I'm not aware of any that actually change the growth cycle of the follicle like Latisse does.&nbsp;There are rave reviews of Rapid Lash online, but it does next to nothing for me. When you do decide to change, I would make sure you have the new product in hand and begin its use the day you quit the Latisse, so at the very least it can help to maintain your current lashes for as long as possible. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/eyelash-products-besides-latisse#post-1173733 Fri, 21 Feb 2014 19:48:29 +0000 ironkurtin 1173733@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Latisse can change eye color?

They used to be very dark brown, now they are a lighter brown/hazel. </p> <p>You could check out the eyelash serum from DHC (<a href="http://www.dhccare.com" rel="nofollow">http://www.dhccare.com</a>). I bought it based on the reviews but&nbsp;I can't really say if it works or not because I really didn't use it regularly.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/eyelash-products-besides-latisse#post-1173487 Fri, 21 Feb 2014 16:07:21 +0000 Anonymous 1173487@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>No help but I just wanted to say eye colour can change at any time. I was born with dark blue eyes and had them until I was 6-7 years old, and then they changed, got lighter to a mottled blue/green/grey, and I now have a copper ring around my pupil. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/eyelash-products-besides-latisse#post-1173477 Fri, 21 Feb 2014 16:00:09 +0000 Peri 1173477@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I've used Latisse for almost 4 months and had great results...I was so happy to have nice eyelashes for the first time in my life. But, par for the course for me, now I have to stop. I was having some mild irritation and the eyelid darkening but I decided I could live with that because the results were so good. </p> <p>But...now I have started to think my eye color is charging and that is a deal breaker. I have green eyes with copper flecks and it's like the copper has started to melt and spread...they actually look lighter instead of darker. It is subtle...I doubt anyone else would notice...but I don't want it to continue. I hope it doesn't if I quit the latisse.</p> <p>But there go my pretty eyelashes. Has anyone had any good results from any of the cosmetic counter eyelash growth products? </p>
