Hi Everyone,
I'm a brand new member and have enjoyed reading the Boards and your great product feedback. So after following a lot of your comments about eyelash growth products (Revitalash old and new versions, Lilash, etc.), I have to ask.....
Which product really DOES do the best job? I would love to buy one but do not know WHICH one. So thanks for any feedback you can provide.
The new kid on the block. ![Confused](images/smiles/confused.gif) |

Hello,
I have tried and am still using revitalash. After using it almost everyday for two weeks I noticed my lashes were definitely longer. They don't seem thicker though but for sure the ones that I had before are a lot longer than they had ever grown before.
Hope this is helpful at all,
Eryn |

Eryn,
Thanks for the info. Someone else told me the same thing, that she had seen results in two weeks with Revitalash, but I wasn't sure if she had been using the older version or the newer one. Either way, sounds like it's worth a try.
Thank you,
Laraine |

I used Mavala and there wasn't any miracles,
it works like a conditioner to prevent your current lashes from falling off. I do like the idea but I just can't seem to get myself to keep up with the hassle of applying it every night since the results were not dramatic enough to encourage me to do so |

I've used Rapidlash and Revitalash and Revitalash definitely worked for me, and two of my friends. My lashes grew longer and fuller in a month with Revitalash, nothing for Rapidlash (I tried it for a month also). I love it I don't wear mascara much anymore, it's just what I was hoping for. ![Very Happy](images/smiles/biggrin.gif) |

I have been reading these blogs for a while,and need to comment. Some people have said that Rapidlash is very cheap, and it is about 50.00. All the others seem to be 150.00. The thing is, Rapidlash last 1-2 months, while the other products last 6 months. So it is not such a great deal, and the others have been out for 2+ years, and this stuff less than one year. It is 1/3 the price but lasts 1/3 the time. I wish people would tell the whole story...I almost dropped the one I use to but this stuff prior to phoning them. I am sticking with my current brand, it works and has not caused a single problem with my eyes. |

I disagree, I did notice that the rapidlash had much less actual volume, but my tube of rapidlash lasted 3-4 months and I had fantastic results with it. |

Thanks for your comments oranges, but I called the makers of Rapidlash and saw a brochure. Even the blogs and newspaper print on it say it lasts 1- 2 months. I just read as comparison in the LA times, said it last only 1 month. That is why I called the Rapidlash people, and they said 2 months. I can also tell you that I have gotten 9 months out of my current brand, using it less ofter to maintain my effect. I am not trying to upset you, but others including the manufacture tell me it is 1-2 months. I am sticking with my brand. |

I promise no more comments but this is from the Rapidlash brochure.
Q. How long will one container of RapidLash last?
A. If applied according to directions, one container of RapidLash
should last approximately 1-2 months. Daily applications to
upper lash line only will provide a longer yield than if also
applied to lower lash line.... |

From LA Times Oct 18/09 Revitalash 6 months Rapidlash 1 month. Google news search.
Among the first innovators in the field, Revitalash was created by ophthalmologist Michael Brinkenhoff for his wife, whose lashes had become sparse and brittle after chemotherapy. A combination of cosmetic ingredients -- among them panthenol, sodium chloride and citric acid -- helps condition and generally improve the attractiveness of lashes within a few weeks.
Cost: $150 for a six-month supply
RapidLash Eyelash Renewal Serum
This product, launched late last year, has polypeptides that provide essential proteins and vitamins to fortify lashes and help them look shinier and longer.
Cost: $49.95 for a one-month supply. |

I read from other forums that Vitamin E oil works. Though it may not work as well as those products aimed to help eyelash growth, the cost is so minimal. |

RapidLash is the winner for me, by far. It blows everything else out of the water, except for Lumigan. I tried lower-priced lash strengtheners and supposed lengtheners, plus the high-end products like RevitaLash and I had no noticeable effects except with Lumigan and RapidLash.
The nice thing about RL is that it doesn't carry that undesired side effect of possible iris color change, so that's why I switched from Lumigan to that. Plus Lumigan was costing me $40/bottle anyway.
I did a review of this with before/after pictures on my blog, but I don't know if it's against the rules to link here, so if you'd like to see the pics/read the review, just PM me. ![Smile](images/smiles/smile.gif) |

I bought the RapidLash on Amazon at a cost of $30 plus $6 shipping. It came so quickly and was packaged extremely well. I would buy from the seller again.
I have only used it a few days but also use KGF Lash Serum from Skinactives which has made a nice change after a couple of months but nothing extraordinary. However, it must have made a difference because I get compliments on my lashes. Just nothing like some of the things I've seen on this board.
I am going to continue to use the KGF in the mornings and the Rapidlash at night since it's a once a day product. The KGF is a very large amount that lasts for months. |

I know Vitamin E oil might work. I used a bodyshop VE eyecream before and it really helped! |

I have used Mavala as well and I did see a difference however when you stop using it your lashes go back to their normal state.
After a bout of stress, I was left with a bald patch on one eye (IT WAS SO BAD). I caved and bought Enormous Lash from Mecca Cosmetica. I have been using it for about a month, and I have seen A LOT of improvement! Bald patch gone completely and lashes thinker and longer and they don't fall out anymore!!

I have been using RapidLash for several weeks on eyelashes and bald patchy eyebrows. I have had excellent results on my eyebrows- actually have to trim and pluck now, but haven't seen any benefit for my eyelashes. I just started using Careprost for my lashes and from what I've seen from reviews, I expect great things. I do use Ardell lash conditioner in addition to whatever else I'm using because it does keep eyelashes conditioned.
I want to put this out there though- reading through old posts I recall seeing one by someone who noticed that after using RapidLash for awhile she thought she had developed some fine hair growth on her upper cheeks and when I saw that I remembered I had noticed the same thing days before but figured it was the lighting showing up what had always been there. So, anyone else noticed that? It seems not too bad, but I worry how bad it is in certain light from others point of view? What do you do for it, if anything? I'm thinking I must be spreading the RapidLash as I'm sleeping, so maybe I could apply it mornings, but then it's going to fool with my makeup routine. Just want to see if this is actually noticed by anyone else before I blame the product. |

I've used a couple of these over the years:
1. Mavala - made no difference to my lashes, but a friend says it's her 'lash fertiliser'
2. Talika Lipocil - works! My lashes grew slightly and were well conditioned
3. Avancee - a bestseller available in Japan, this was awesome and reasonably priced
4. DHC - a small tube, this keeps my lashes in good condition, less breakage. I'm not sure about longer lashes, I think I see just a little, not as pronounced as Avancee or Talika
Overall, I think these products are good if you have lashes that keep breaking off like me. Otherwise, their results are not too obvious... I think one would need to stand REALLY close to you to see that your lashes are that much longer! |

I've recently started using Revitalash and haven't noticed to much change except for a bit of a conditioning effect. Does the new Revitalash have the ingredient that can cause iris change color? |

Sounds SOOO expensive when my lash enhancer from Arbonne works like a charm, is only $35 and lasts for months. (It's also effective for eyebrows.) I'm allergic to most retail products so when I found a natural lash enhancer that didn't leave me crying, I was thrilled! I get mine from supernaturalskin.myarbonnecom. |

I have been scared away by all the possible side effects of these products, but I am encouraged that you all have had positive results. |
