And I tried to search for this product in case you all have gone over this before and it was too overwhelming. I did an exact search and nothing.
It sounds pretty amazing and one poster on the Lipfusion XL thread said she was saving her money for it.
I would just love to hear feedback from someone whos tried it.
I've used Dreamlash and it has worked pretty good. Only I can notice though.
From pics of this, anyone would notice. Looks even better than that Lucia product everyone had been raving about. although no one has posted about it recently hmmmmmmmmmmm....... |

I think another forum member, Winnie, has ordered some of this stuff. Hopefully, she can provide you with some feedback.  |

| I am anxiously awaiting to receive this product. At Christmas I was fortunate to win a very generous voucher from EDS. Honestly, if I did not receive the voucher I would not even think of trying a product that is so expensive. At present I am using the Lucia/Ardell. I am very happy with the results I have receive from the combo I now use. I have so much skin care products and just had to order Jan Marini's Lash. After I use it for a few weeks I will do a review. Where I have noticable growth and thickening from the Lucia and Ardell I can't imagine getting overwhelming results from JM...but, it would be nice. |

Now do you think the Lucia or ardell is better?
If you are using the combo, how can you tell WHICH one is working?
Can you describe your lashes before using these and now since?
Did you get the Lucia from Ebay?
I have been using Dreamlash and Ardell. I used the Dreamlash first and did notice a little improvement. Appying mascara is better but did not notice much with the Ardell.
Now I use a combo of both and seem to have reached my "plataeu"
I think I'll wait for your results before I try the Lucia.
Thanks Winnie! |

I saw results when I purchased Ardell. My lashes looked longer and darker. After hearing Carrie's reviews I had to try the Lucia. The results after using the Lucia were amazing (purchase off Ebay). I still would like some more thickness to my lashes (if that is possible). Before using these products my lashes were as short and thin as you could imagine. My best results were my brows. Over the past several years my brows have become very thin and short at the ends. Honestly, since using the Lucia and Ardell I don't have to wear brow pencil or mascara. These products are awesome for me as I wear glasses and it is very difficult for me to apply eye makeup. I use a combo of both products. Lucia is applied first to my brows and lashes. After about five minutes I apply the Ardell. Ardell is now my colorless mascara. At bedtime I only apply the Lucia.
I have never tried Dream Lash. Mabsy seems to really like it. |

| FYI - some of us suspect a bit of “trickery” in the before and after photos of the JM Age Invention Lash stuff because it looks like her lashes have simply been curled so that they no longer point at a downward angle in the 2nd photo (thereby making them appear shorter than they actually are).

Thanks!
How long did the Lucia take to come from Japan?
And the seller's name is Maimow right? |

| I posted these before & after pics on another skincare forum and everyone there felt that the pictures were fraudulent, and that the person simply had a professionally applied mascara in the second photo. They pointed out that her lashes are in exactly the same positions, laying the same way, in both photos. And that if any time had really elapsed between the two photos being taken, this would not be the case. Pretty much turned me off! |

| The seller is maimeow and the shipping was certainly fast to the UK, taking only a few days to arrive. |

FYI - here's the thread with the offer from MaiMeow to provide Lucia to EDS members directly without having to bid on it via Ebay: http://www.essentialdayspa.com/forum/viewthread.php?tid=8857&highlight=lucia+maimeow
Wenrwdy - we seem to be playing "tag" all around the forum as you've been asking questions in several posts about my opinion on the JM Age Intervention Lash stuff. I wanted to suggest that you check your EDS member profile to ensure that you have the "Always notify me of replies:" preference activated so you will automatically receive emails notifying you that someone has replied to one of your posts, that way you won't have to try and play tag with other members when you've got questions for them.
HTH,
Carrie |

Carie, I DID check that and I never get notified. So I've had to do it manually. Plus I just wanted to make sure I got you.
Sorry about that. |

If the “Always notify me of replies” option is activated on your member profile, then may I suggest that you verify that your email/spam filters are not blocking you from receiving the topic update notifications. You might need to add this email address forum@essentialdayspa.com to your list of “trusted senders” so the notifications don’t get automatically deleted or quarantined as “spam.”
I’m not chastising you for posting the questions, I’m just trying to help ensure that you are notified when somebody responds because I know how difficult it can be to manually track several different topic threads – especially when some jackass spams the forum with garbage (I’m referring to “bizhiguo9701" and his dozens of new threads in the Product Review forum!) so relevant posts get bumped down to the bottom of the list. |

| Thanks Carie. Actually I only check the notify option on the individual posts so maybe that is it. Also, never thought about the spam thing. Yeah, I bet that will make a dif. |

As far as we've been able to discern, Ardell isn't available up there -- or so all your fellow Canadians have reported in the past. Check my actual product review for Ardell because there might be some info on availability from your fellow Canucks in that thread. |

I order my Ardell from Drugstore.com just cause I'm too lazy to go to the drugstore. Most of what I would buy there is carried in the megasupermarket. I'm not sure if they send to Canada though....
I think it's a great little product. I purchased the Lucia too but I have to admit I only used it a couple of times. I just couldn't seem to get the hang of applying it and I felt like I was wasting it. The fact that I'm a klutz shouldn't dissuade others from using it though. My bf has a crazy schedule, so I tend to go to bed for an hour or two, THEN get up and do my skincare stuff before getting back in bed. As a result, I'm usually a little discombobulated when applying products, so if it requires any dexterity at all  |

I have tried several ways of applying the Lucia. Now I just apply one drop to a clean hand, dip my finger in and gently rub on both lashes. I repeat the one drop finger application for my brows. Easy and WORKS |

I received my Jan Marini Lash I have been applying it before bed the last 3 or 4 nights. While trying this very expensive JM product I am not using Lucia. I will continue using Ardell in the AM as my alternative to mascara. Perhaps I am not the one to be evaluating this product as the results from the Lucia/Ardell have been wonderful! However, I did feel that I reached my peak using the combined products.Again, the only reason I bought this was I won the Holiday gift certificate from EDS. 
Jan Marini Lash is very convenient to apply. It is a clear, light liquid that you apply just as you do eyeliner. Just one light sweep does it (lash roots only). It is suggested that you use very little and be careful you don't get it in your eyes. On my first application a little got into my eye. There was a very slight stinging that did not last but a minute. The sensation went away on it's own without having to flush my eye. The only thing I have noticed is my lashes look nice in the morning as I was doing something good for them (just as I found with Lucia).
This should be a miracle product for the price.  I would imagine that it will last a very long time. Will keep you posted. I sent our lash queen, Carrie, the insert from the product. Anxious to hear if there is an unusual ingredient in JM Lash. |
