Lilash and Librow!

Yes the product works. It took only 2 weeks to see a change in length of my eyelashes and maybe 1 week to see change in eyebrow growth.

I have just finished my first tube of Lilash it has lasted 5 months, I used it every night.
My lashes have darkened and they are extremley long. I should probably only apply it 2 to 3 times per week now.

I found the librow worked much quicker. I have been using it for maybe 4 weeks and I am ready to have them waxed to shape! And yes my eye brows were very fine! You were unable to see the tails of them unless they were penciled in. You couldn't see them because they weren't there. They just didn't grow anymore. I am now in my late 40's and I haven't tweezed my eyebrows since my early 20's.

Both my eyelashes and eyebrows were very light and fine. If I didn't apply several coats of mascara and eyeliner to fill in the spaces it appeared that I had no eyelashes, well actually I did have very few, there were even spaces where they didn't grow.
I still where mascara but only one light coat. If I apply more than one coat they are so long that they almost look false.

The product is expensive but it works and like I said earlier it last at least 5 months.
If you order from their website they usually have specials. Free shipping or if you order 2 you get $40.00 off and so forth. When I placed my order for librow it was backordered so I had to wait an extra week for it. When it arrived they had enclosed two $20.00 COUPONS for the extra wait.

I am truely amazed and very pleased with the results.
I'm not one to write a review on a product but I am so impressed with the product I felt I had to.

Hi I'm new here but already love this board.

I've ordered some carepost from ADC and should get it today

. But I've been also reading all the good reviews about Rapid Lash. I've ordered four bottles of careprost. Should I get the Rapid Lash too and use them both? Does one work better than the other.

My lashes are already pretty long but I will use it there for extra color/strength/growth. What I REALLY need is help in my eyebrows.

Would you guys recommend getting the rapid lash also, or just sticking with the careprost? I think I might order some more of one of them tonight...depending on your suggestions!

Thanks!

I like to try new products separately so I can evaluate them individually. It also helps me know, if I have a reaction, which one is the culprit. I use Rapidlash and have gotten wonderful results. I also use KGF Lash and Brow Serum, which I used first. I added the Rapidlash to my routine after using the KGF for a couple of months. I do use one in the morning and one at night.

I just got in my Careprost and the KFG brow serum today. I'm not sure which to try first!

I've been using castor oil on my brows for nine days. I too was worried about eyebrow acne since I have the oilies/pores/acne, but nothing so far.

I honestly have not seen anything in new growth, but it does seem to smooth out some of my occasional wiry hairs that pop up now and then. If the castor oil doesn't work, I'll move on to the more expensive Careprost.

QUESTION!

Do I apply Careprost every day/night?

I read on a website it should be applied once weekly.
Also Careprost is for Glacoma. What it gets into the eye- what adverse reaction could happen?!

goatlady · 02-07-2010, 12:13 PM

I apply it every night. Just try not to get it into your eyes. I thin layer right on the base of the lashes. I have not had any problems if you are concerned have your eye pressure checked

hi you all,

remember me?

finally, the lumigan bottle has finished after i applied it for 15 nights. as i said earlier, i used it freely.

Results?

i easily see a hair growth on my brows. but..but...

1. it may because i have shaved certain areas of my brows previously and it had grown back.
2. may be because of castor oil that i apply and massage everyday.

and finally, i hope....

it is due to lumigan...

thanks to you all..

what i am going to do is continue with lumigan...sorry now careprost because i read it here that its the same solution only the brand name is different. and its available at half the price.

anyone heard of careprostPLUS? its 0.05% bimathaprost.

1. apply by a fine brush or mascara..
2. apply it on the basis of eyelashes..

both correct?

Just on base of upper lashes.

I was diagnosed with glaucoma so I had to use Lumigan (LATISSE) as an eyedrop. I now have thick, long, dark eyelashes! Being a 57 year old blonde, my eyebrows were very pale and almost nonexistent. I brush Lumigan on my brows each night, and after about 2-3 months I have eyebrows again. The hairs are long, dark, and more dense. IT'S A MIRACLE AND I WILL NEVER STOP USING THIS PRODUCT.

goatlady · 02-09-2010, 01:20 PM

I use it on brows, upper and lower lashes. Made my brows darker they look more natural and I finally have the eyelashes I have always dreamed of all my life. I also will not go without this stuff. I will give up food portions for it

MsFancyPants · 02-09-2010, 04:18 PM

Hi Ladies. Sorry I haven't posted here sooner. I started doing the Castor Oil and it worked GREAT. Then, I moved and I didn't do it for a while. I'm going to start religiously again. I did it every night for four weeks, and it was really beginning to fill in the spots. I have lots of tiny little blonde hairs and I'm hoping they're going to turn dark and longer! I will report back in 4-6 more weeks!

Angel Hair · 02-09-2010, 05:29 PM

GreekGod just a fine tipped brush not a mascara brush or it will get into your eyes! base of lashes top lashes only! glad the brows have thickened!!!

Hi, first post here ever!!
I was checked for everything having to do with hair loss and they found nothing. I thought I had a thyroid prob and it wasn't. The doc declared it allopecia areata. At least that's how I think its spelled. It started with my left eyebrow thinning out on the outer part. Then it completely fell off. I was penciling in the sucker. It took maybe 3 months for it to finally fall off and for me to be scared enough to go to the doctor. I started seeing a dermatologist who injected me with steroids in the area. About 3 months to get the hair to look decent. When that happened my right eyebrow took the same path.

Then same treatment to that eyebrow and it was pretty much back and forth for both eyebrows, one good, the other one bad. My hubby is in the service so I had to stop treatment while we moved and get it reapproved for the new area which is Korea. The Korean dermatologist started injecting me every 2 wks with steroids instead of once a month. (These shots are really painful, but so far they were worth it) The reaction was quicker and my eyebrows are back. Not as full and bushy

as they used to be, but they are here.
I still use an ointment called dermovate that was prescribed to me. Doc said it would help to keep the hair from falling out. I just wanted to tell you guys about my story. Hopefully you all get the eyebrows the way you want them because I can tell you my face did not look the same without the hair and I ended up with bangs for a little while trying to hide the penciled in stuff. Good luck. Sorry its so long and not really adding any good info
