LiLash Eyelash Serum Review*: One Year Later

I can't believe its already been twelve moons, "un an", the evolution of the rabbit to the coveted dragon since I first started using the LiLash eyelash stimulator serum. Check back here for my first blog review on the product after five months.

After many weeks and months of diligently applying the serum to create lush lashes, I started to slow down on the application around the seventh month because I only needed a tiny perk me up to keep them going. I had loved what LiLash was doing for me and I simply couldn't do without at this point.

Slowly and surely, my eyes because adverse to the idea of using a lash stimulator after about eight months. (FYI, I was able to stretch out the use of a six month supply by using it sparingly and the product website indicates that each tube is good for a full year after its initial opening.) After a typical night of LiLash application, I started to wake up with red, flaky eyelids. Before this I had never had a bad reaction to the product like some others I had known were susceptible to. I asked myself, is this the end of my almost "unreal" lashes? Say it ain't so!

I would take a few days, at times a week break from applying LiLash in hopes that the displeasing reaction was just a fluke. Nope. Anytime the serum touched my eyelids it was the same irritated condition, one that wouldn't heal easily I might add. (For the safety of your own eyes, it is best to stop immediately if you notice any unwelcome effects while using lash stimulators.) Now that I can't upkeep with the serum, my lashes have definitely fell short as you can see in the photo collage below.

Here are two views of my lashes when I first started a year ago, five months in, and today (top to bottom):

So in conclusion, I have been off LiLash for about four months now and my lashes are going back to their old, stumpy selves. They are also more difficult to curl with my favorite Shu Uemura eyelash curler because of their current state. I really do miss the lengthy lashes but unfortunately, my personal reactions shut down any hopes to keep them going. So now I bid adieu to my once lush lashes, now where did I put my falsies again...
