Latisse

Grow Longer, Darker, Thicker Eyelashes with Latisse

Latisse is a revolutionary eye care product approved by the FDA that helps to grow and enhance thin eyelashes. According to medical experts, this product has fulfilled a significant void which was yet unmet in the cosmetic industry. Dabbed like eyeliner at the roots of the eyelashes with a sterile single-use-per-eye disposable applicator, it enables eyelashes to grow deeper, darker and longer.

A once daily prescription treatment, users can expect to experience results in as little as eight weeks. Complete results are achieved within 16 weeks. However, in order to maintain the effect of thick, lush eyelashes, Latisse must continually be used. Discontinuing treatment would eventually result in eyelashes gradually returning to how they were prior to treatment.

The secret ingredient is bimatoprost ophthalmic solution, a compound that is made of fatty acid, which once latched on to the receptors of the eyelashes, helps in the re-growth of hair follicles.

A recommendation from a physician or ophthalmologist should be given before using Latisse. Users may experience side effects such as itchy eyes and eye redness. Latisse should not be applied on the lower eyelid, it is meant for the skin margins of the upper eyelid only.
