Some women who don't think their mascara is doing enough are turning to eyelash growth enhancers like Rapid Lash. These formulas are applied just like eyeliner and claim to increase the darkness, thickness, and length of your lashes within 4-6 weeks. They act like hormones to stimulate lash growth. It sounds like a great breakthrough for women, but I have always been wary about the side effects or the effectiveness of these too-good-to-be-true drugs.

No, I'm concerned about the potential health risks to my eyes. I'd have to at least do some research.
I have glaucoma and use a prescription eye drop called Lumigan. One of it's side effects is eyelash growth and darkening of your eye color. The pharmaceutical company that makes Lumigan is now selling it as a lash lengthener. This is scary IMHO. What will happen to girls and women's eyes that do not have the eye disease?


No, I like my eyelashes the way they are.
Thank you.No, I'm concerned about the potential health risks to my eyes. I'd have to at least do some research.
mine are pretty long as it it, however, they can never be long enough I just worry about my eyes and I can wail until a law suit comes along lolNo, I'm concerned about the potential health risks to my eyes. I'd have to at least do some research.
No wayYeah, I would be willing to try a eyelash renewal formula like Rapid Lash.
my eyelashes suckYeah, I would be willing to try a eyelash renewal formula like Rapid Lash.
It seems the older I get, the shorter and thinner my eyelashes get. I would love to have long, luscious lashes (say that 10 times fast) like I did when I was a kid.No, I like my eyelashes the way they are.
I don't even wear Mascara =/I'm a dude.
and if my eye lashes were any longer I'd trip over them=]No, I like my eyelashes the way they are.
A little mascara and I'm set to go. =)No, I like my eyelashes the way they are.
They're decent.No, I'm concerned about the potential health risks to my eyes. I'd have to at least do some research.
Not after hearing the possible side effects. I'd never fool around with anything near the eyes. Not for eyelashes, you can buy them and be safer.No, I'm concerned about the potential health risks to my eyes. I'd have to at least do some research.
Aside from the cost which is approx. $110. for a one month supply which inusrance won't pay for, if this medication gets under the eye from rubbing in your sleep etc, it will put permenant dark cirles under your eyes. In many case your eye color actually changes and this is a permenant thing.Many drugs have side effects that ruin people's health and the medical communtiy doesn't find out until a few years down the line. Phen Phen was the wonder diet drug, with no side effects, so we were told, until women developed heart conditions that are permenant. This has happened with many medication. What if you get glaucoma when you get older and because you used this drug for a long period of time you become immune to it, there will be no medication to help a condition that causes you to go blind.
Eyesight is to precious to lose because a person wants long dark lashes. Hope people think before considering this product only to find out after they are blind or other eye disorders that it is not the wonder product they were told it was.
I will stick with black mascara and keep my eye color and eyesight.
I'm a dude.
Dude, I'm a dude!No, I like my eyelashes the way they are.
I like my eyelashes right now but as I grow older , I might be willing to try thisNo, I like my eyelashes the way they are.
Anything that can do that can not be safe!No, I'm concerned about the potential health risks to my eyes. I'd have to at least do some research.
It is not necessary if you take good care of your lashes. Every night after you wash your face and lashes use a q-tip and carefully apply petoleum jelly(vaseline for one) to the base of your eyelashes. Be careful not to get it in your eyes. A glamour magazine (years ago) they said the reason your lashes don't get longer is because they get brittle and break off. If you apply the vaseline every night before you go to bed it will moisturize your lashes and they won't break and therefore will grow longer. The vaseline will not harm you. I tried it and it worked for me.No, I'm concerned about the potential health risks to my eyes. I'd have to at least do some research.
Really don't need it. I saw the commercial for it. I do not like the side effects. Possible permanent change to your iris turning your eye color brown. Who knows what other more serious issues will pop up in a year or so of public use? I never want to be a Guinea pig for any product. Better safe than sorry. You can always apply the individual fake lashes to your own for a very pretty look that has no side effects.No, I like my eyelashes the way they are.
natural, people!I'm a dude.
One of the side effects are permanent brown spots in the iris,I believe. I wouldn't want my wife using it.No, I like my eyelashes the way they are.
I've never done 'cosmetics' at all .. just have no interest. (and I'm over a half-century in age right now!)No, I like my eyelashes the way they are.
No thanks. I'm not that worried about my eyelashes, but I would worry about what a drug that that could do to my eyes. I know a woman who had her makeup permanently tattooed on. Ehhhhh.No, I like my eyelashes the way they are.

My eyelashes are long and dark enough without some weird drug. I never use mascara anyway.No, I'm concerned about the potential health risks to my eyes. I'd have to at least do some research.
no hell no what is wrong with the fda what is wrong with science why are letting people die of cancer or aids and all we care of is looks -_-Yeah, I would be willing to try a eyelash renewal formula like Rapid Lash.
I actually forked over the $$$ (it wasn't cheap) and it was worth it. My lashes are thicker and definately longer.Yeah, I would be willing to try a eyelash renewal formula like Rapid Lash.
I always wait til they've been on the market for a while before I try them.No, I like my eyelashes the way they are.
