Sell me a product that claims to make lashes grow (Infact
make anything grow!) and I will not think
twice about it. I am a sucker for lip plumper’s, eyebrow growth serum, eyelash
enhancers and the list goes on. Fortunately, (without bragging) I have always had
long lashes, and I am very lucky in the sense that any old mascara will do. I
can also get by without wearing falsies.
I remember ever since
I was 15 all those long years ago I would repeatedly rub Vaseline on them before bed
in a bid to increase their size
overnight. It is when some people ask
whether I have false lashes on that I know the man above has definitely
blessed me in the eyelash department.
Now of course, I am an avid YouTube watcher, blog reader and
anything beauty related will always appeal to me so I came across the Rapid Lash Eyelash and Eyebrow Enhancing Serum where I stumbled across
several posts and reviews on it. The
reviews were nothing but glorious with some claiming ‘they would never be
without it’. So I was in instantly drawn in, took the plunge and decided to try it out for
myself.
Now this serum, which is readily available across high
street stores and several sites online claims to ‘enhance the appearance of
brows and lashes, moisturise them, improves the length, thickness and volume .and
protects against breakage'. Sounds amazing right?
Directions? Well you simply apply it to a clean eyelid at
the base of the upper lashes as if you were applying liquid eyeliner each night
before bed for a period of four weeks and so I did just that from the day I received it.
it definitely sounded simple enough. I just love the
no mess no hassle application when it comes to beauty and this certainly deserves 10/10 for that.
The product itself looks exactly like a liquid eyeliner tube
which also resembles the brush for easy application. It is a 3ml ( 0.1 fl oz)
that doesn’t have a nasty strong smell to it nor did it irritate or tingle
fortunately. It is paraben free and is
safe to use on both brows and lashes including lower lashes . What’s more, it
is fortified with vitamins and proteins and none of the nasty stuff which I
suppose you’ve got to give it some credit for surely.
Well, I used it religiously every night that I could
remember after removing my makeup for a
period of three ish weeks, whilst it
didn’t give me ultra glam super thick long lashes (that I was secretly hoping
for) I did notice a big improvement in their overall condition, it was like
they had a deep keratin treatment done, they were super soft and shiny and I was delighted to find that they no longer fell out when removing my eye makeup
in particular mascara.
I purchased mine off Amazon UK as I found it was a lot cheaper
on there compared to some sites and stores like Boots and larger Superdrug.
With delivery included, I ended up paying around £21 which is pretty reasonable I
guess considering it is natural in the sense of no nasty ingredients, the quantity of the product and what it claims
to achieve.
Would I repurchase? Probably not. Yes it has made a noticeable difference to
the overall condition of my lashes, but in terms of lengthening not so much.
Maybe my expectations were not realistic enough, maybe I needed to use a second
tube, but at £20 a pop it is a tad bit pricey for me I am afraid and for now, I
am happy to just stick to good old Vaseline.
Have you tried the Rapid Lash Eyelash and Eyebrow
Enhancing Serum?
