Longer and Fuller Lashes, anyone?

Latisse
How many of you ladies out there who would LOVE to have longer, thicker and fuller eyelashes?
Being an Asian descent, I have naturally thin and short eyelashes. (AND they are oh so stubbornly straight!) -- What can I say...decades of eyelash struggles are real.
I have tried everything from olive oil, caster oil, vaseline to other "eyelashes growth serum". While those "oils" did make my eyelashes appear "thicker", I did not see any significant changes.
About a year ago, I decided to try Latisse, even though it was a bit pricey.
​What is Latisse?
Latisse is an FDA approved treatment used to stimulate the growth of eyelashes.
Well, well, well... I've never thought that achieving longer, fuller lashes without extensions or falsies is possible.

My apologies for my hairy face! (LOL) The above "before and after" pictures are unedited, and I am thrilled to have longer eyelashes!
I have added more pictures to show how my eyelashes began to grow (see the below Gallery). As you can see, my eyelashes started to grow after applying it daily - at night - for about 2 weeks.
How does this work, you ask?
I applied Latisse to the base of the upper eyelashes once a day. Most users should begin to see results within 4-8 weeks, with the most dramatic results appearing around week 12 or so.
Remember, if you stop using Latisse, your eyelashes will eventually return to your original state.
I religiously applied Latisse everyday for the first 12 weeks, then changed to about 2-3 times per week just to maintain my length.

There you have it -- I know I cannot live without it!

Wow! Great review!
Can I apply Latisse more than once a day?... to speed up the process?

Hi, Josie. Unfortunately, applying it more than once a day would not make your lashes grow faster. In this case, more isn't necessarily better. Hope this helps!
