hitting 25 has not been that kind to me: breakouts, sparse eyelashes, fine lines etc. if someone had told me it'd be like this i'd have appreciated my 18 year old self a whole lot more!
i've been noticing the odd eyelash fall out each week during my cleansing routine. they look far less dense than they ever used to and i can't pinpoint a reason why. at the start of the summer i began to research online and came across a multitude of bloggers all complaining about the same issue. but then, alas, they talked about a solution and i perked up. until i read this tweet by matt logelin...
and then i felt crap again.yes i have more serious shit to worry about. but i'd like voluminous eyelashes whilst i face my latest crisis.
boots are offering rapidlash (which currently has 26 five star reviews) for £39.99. i cannot justify spending this much right now but if you have the spare cash then it looks like a great option. instead i've opted to try the mavala double lash for £8.50 shipped. bargain (if it works!)
it comes with a mascara style wand and the idea is to apply it at night before bed and leave on all night. i'm hoping for noticeably longer, stronger and thicker lashes.
i know nothing about how this works and i haven't started to use it yet. this post is purely an introduction to let you know that i'm starting this evening and will continue use for 4-6 weeks before updating here with the results. let me know if you have a blog and want to trial this at the same time - it would be cool to have a number of reviews i could link to at the end of the trial period so that readers benefit from a broad spectrum of views.
what's your view on eyelash enhancement products? is it all a load of nonsense? have you ever tried any of the products on the market? would you consider it?

That sounds like a fantastic product....I'm very tempted by it!

Aw, don't let that tweet get you down! If it's important to you, that's all that matters. £39.99 sounds insane for that RapidLash stuff! You definitely went for the sensible option price-wise. I hope you see results from it.
ReplyDeleteBy the way, congrats on reaching 200 followers. :)
^ thanks Katie...and I just noticed the 200! :)
ReplyDeletesweet i look forward to seeing if this works, my lashes juts basically drop from my eyes and are so short and GAH!!!x
ReplyDeleteI just bought this stuff a few weeks ago. Im using it on my eyebrows as well to see if they will get fuller to. Let me know how it works for you!
ReplyDeleteWelldone on 200! :) I hope to get that one day! I heard that if you put a little vaseline on your eyelashes it helps them appear longer but that wouldnt help with sparse lashes.
ReplyDeleteBy the way, I was the girl that emailed you about using fonts for your blog posts. I didnt manage to do it :/ Do you think you could send me the code you use? It would be a big help.
Much love, Louisa xx
I think spending £39.99 on something that really works isn't such a bad idea, especially if the problem with your eye lashes bug you! Do you regularly use false eye lashes? Because I know the glue doesn't tend to be to kind on the eyes :)

Ooh I've used this before! Me and my Mum used it but it kind of stopped working after a while haha. Am loving the L'Oreal Paris Eyelash Renewal Serum which is quite good though!

@cowbiscuits - this could be the product for you by the sounds of it!
ReplyDelete@candice - I read that it can be used on eyebrows too! how's it working for you?
@Louisa - hey! did you follow the instructions? how come you couldn't get it to work? at the end of that post (the link I gave you) there is a troubleshooting guide - check that out! I didn't think it was too difficult?
@Jordan - I agree completely but I don't think it bothers me enough to spend that much right now! I don't use false lashes(not often anyway) but I can imagine regular use would cause problems!
@Michelle - ooo, hadn't heard of the L'Oreal one, so will have to take a look :) Have a great weekend x
I've used this for about 2 months consistently, I've found my lashes are stronger and a tiny bit longer, I've noticed my bottom lashes have filled out way more which is RAD! (uneven lashes is a boo hoo!) hope you have muchos success with this stuff, Mavala are a great brand! (they are my nail saviours with the nail hardeners, hallalujah!!) ^__^ xxx
