LATISSE OR NOT LATISSE…THAT IS THE QUESTION…

Posted by Te-see on 16th February 2009

Well, if you haven’t heard by now…the news is out…Allergan has released their new eye lash grower “Latisse.” I’ve been waiting patiently for 2 years!!! And now my waiting is over…

Now, back in the day when I was young and dumb my friend Monica Segner talked me into curling my eyelashes and wearing waterproof mascara…OMG! What a disaster…my lashes have never been the same since. There was nothing I could do about it back then. Technology was way behind and choices were limited.

By the late 80′s early 90′s I had been introduced to false eye lashes by a fabulous make-up artist who did my face for a film where I played a sexy chauffeur. I was hooked…unfortunately, the glue wasn’t my friend…the result was sparse eye lashes. They were even worse then before…so, I accepted my fate and continued looking for a mascara that would cover my lousy eye lashes and give them a “some what full look.”

Many decades later several companies released eye lash growers, Jan Marini, Revitalash, just to name a few. Tried them both and saw a little growth. Then news came out that Allergan was in the process of clinical trials…which meant they were in the works of releasing the ultimate eye lash grower yet. The key ingredient that “Latisse” contains is lumigan which was originally used to help glaucoma patients. These patients were finding that their eyelashes were growing at such length they had to cut them…imagine that girls…I could only hope that my lashes needed to be trimmed!

Any way, I’ve been using it faithfully every night for almost 2 weeks. Latisse is only available with a prescription. This is to ensure proper application and growth. If you are interested in getting a prescription call Dr. Celia Brown at: 818-222-8232

One week after Latisse is applied:
