LASHES

The past few years have realized a "growth" in the number of products "claiming" to enhance lash appearance. Consumer and doctor confusion triggered by this issue led to this unbiased review. Since 1996, an FDA approved prescription ingredient known as Latanoprost has been used to treat Glaucoma. An interesting cosmetic side effect of lash growth was noticed. Several physicians reported this eyelash growth in several medical journals. A few years ago several companies delivered on their "claims" AND actually "grew" your lashes. Sounds too good to be true? It WAS true, however, those products were NOT legally compliant and infringed upon certain legal Patents. Those products that actually grew your lashes still exist in name only; however, they are no longer effective. We will detail the TRUTH behind the products in question.

The eyelash growth enhancer products on the market are sold over the counter (OTC) even at a doctor's office, as opposed to either an FDA approved manufactured pharmaceutical product or a written prescription from your doctor that is compounded adherent to strict stability and sterility regulations.
