Eyelash Growth Products: Do They Really Work?

How do we grow back eyelashes naturally? You probably know how eyelashes fall out beyond your control. This is surely a cause to be a little alarmed and you probably ask: can eyelashes grow back? Eyelashes definitely do grow back on its own in time. The question is whether or not you are willing to wait about four to eight weeks for them to grow on its own. During this long wait, other eyelash strands may have fallen out as well.

Let's now look into how to grow eyelashes quickly. Thanks to advances in technology, there now is a convenient way to grow eye lashes quicker. This is made possible through a process called eyelash extension, which involve eyelashes glued to the base one by one of each lash. This usually costs $250 to $300 for initial extension sessions and more or less $50 for every touch-up. This cost is relatively high, but hasn't prevented women from doing it.

An equally exciting alternative to this very expensive process is eyelash growth products. There is quite a number of them sold in the market that you can try. Their formulations are different, but the idea behind how these products work is not all that different. These products usually have proteins, amino acids or prostaglandin which possibly can stimulate your follicles for eyelash growth.

Be wary about eyelash growth products which has prostaglandins. They have been seen to work, but these products have side effects such as itching and burning sensations, or worse, change in eye color. Many brands of these eyelash-growing products are quite effective but realistically, do not expect it to happen overnight. Most of these products promise evident results within three to ten weeks. This would mean thicker, fuller and longer lashes which you have always wanted.

Eyelash growth products are being sold in mascara-like tubes, applied to the eye lash base similar to how eyeliners are applied. Their price range from $120 to $150, which is still less than eyelash extensions. Assuming, of course that they effectively work as they are made to be.

Note that there is no proven clinical test which proves their efficacy, eyelash growth cosmetic products may be your best shot at more beautiful, attractive eyes - as they say, the windows to your soul. Remember to check with a doctor before using products like these.
