This was my first dabble in lash serums. I'd heard about them for the longest time and my curiosity eventually got the better of me. That coupled with my non-existent natural lashes! Hoping for a miracle I took the plunge and picked this up from Farmers (the accessibility of this product is fantastic!).
After thoroughly researching the product I learned that it needs to be applied once daily to clean lashes (applying more often has no benefit) just like an eyeliner except you apply to the lashes, not the lash line, you just want to get as close to the lash line as possible. It also mentioned that you need to be consistent and patient as results can take up to 8 - 12wks to be seen.
It took me a good 2 months of daily use before I saw noticeable results, but those results were amazing! My lashes had never looked longer or fuller and people were forever commenting on the length of my lashes. They recommend reducing your use to 3 times weekly once you reach your desired length but I continued to use it daily to maintain.
Unfortunately for me at the end of my 3month use I noticed quite a lot of hair growth around the inner corners of my eyes, which was just unsightly and I became quite self-conscious about it. So for this reason I've moved on to a different serum and won't be repurchasing, but it's definitely worth a try because in the event that you don't suffer from the extra hair growth it's a good, accessible option that works!
I have reasonably long lashes already, but had a bit of a baldish spot in my lashes and was after some serious volume- who doesn't want bigger and better lashes right?
For the first two weeks I had no results with this serum. I didn't have any reactions or sensitivity bar the first use (which felt slightly cold and tingly). I began to wonder if I had just wasted my money! Fast forward another week or two after that and all of a sudden my eyelashes looked so much more impressive with mascara on. I'm now about 2 months in and my lashes are the longest and thickest they have ever been- I even look like I am wearing falsies when I have mascara on! This is one good coat of mascara- not lashings and lashings of the stuff. Without mascara you cant really tell any difference between my before and after.
I have shifted to using the serum a couple times a week rather than daily as am happy to maintain the results I have. I have also started using this on a bald spot in my eyebrow in the hopes it may get things growing evenly. Overall I am so stoked with this serum- will be repurchasing as I definitely think its worth the investment!
Tips: Shop around as there are retailers who are selling it a wee bit cheaper EDITED TO ADD: Unfortunately I have had one of the common side effects- hair growth under the eyes- eek! I have stopped using it for now and when those hairs have disappeared (hopefully they do on their own!) will use in the morning only and wipe off any extra serum on the applicator.
