Latisse Before and After: How to Interpret Results Carefully

Image
Searches for Latisse before and after photographs are common, but photographs need careful interpretation. Changes in lighting, mascara, camera angle and eyelash curling can create a dramatic visual difference even when the underlying hairs have changed much less. A fair comparison begins with a genuine baseline. The lashes should be photographed without mascara or eyeliner, using even lighting and a consistent camera position. A front facing photograph can show overall fullness, while a side view may make changes in length easier to assess. Timing also matters. Bimatoprost acts through the eyelash growth cycle, so pictures taken only a few days apart are unlikely to provide useful information. Comparisons across eight, twelve and sixteen weeks are more meaningful because a greater number of lashes have had time to pass through active growth. When viewing photographs online, look for differences that may exaggerate the result. Has mascara been added in the later image? Is the after pic...

Why Natural Lash Growth Appeals to Mature Women

Image
Eyelashes can become finer, shorter or less noticeable with age. This may reduce definition around the eyes and lead to greater reliance on mascara, false lashes or extensions. For many mature women, the attraction of an eyelash growth treatment is the possibility of improving their own natural lash line. Hair growth changes over time. The active growth phase may become shorter, while individual hairs can become finer and less strongly pigmented. The result is not always obvious lash loss; sometimes the lashes are still present but create less visual contrast. Cosmetic options can help. Mascara adds temporary colour and thickness, while a lash lift can make existing hairs appear more visible. Extensions create the fastest transformation, but they require regular maintenance and may not suit everyone. Bimatoprost based treatment takes a different approach by acting on the eyelash growth cycle. The effect develops gradually, so it is better suited to someone who wants a longer-term routi...

Stylist reviews Mylash

Image
Mylash is offering a consultations for individuals that wish to grow their eyelashes longer, thicker and darker. Anyone who has heard of Latisse UK  – the revolutionary lash lengthener that’s only available on prescription will also know its incredibly hard to get a hold of outside the US. Not any more….  Down some narrow steps at the back of a make up salon on a quiet backstreet in Londons’ Knightbridge, lash expert Sue Marsh is now organising Mylash, an identical substance to Latisse with exactly the same active ingredient – bimatoprost, which works by stimulating prostaglanding receptors in hair and increasing the follicle activity – and exactly the same results.  Complete the online consultation and, if suitable, you will receive treatment in the post. Stylist tip: manufacturers say you need to apply it every day, but once you’ve established full growth (about three months), you only need to use it every three days to keep lashes lush.

Time to anti-age your eyelashes

Image
You may not want to know this — so shut your eyes now! — but if your hair is going grey, there’s worse to come. Your eyelashes may be starting to turn grey, too. It’s perfectly natural: the hair follicles from which they grow just give up on producing melanin, the pigment that gives them their colour, though it doesn’t usually happen before your hair is grey. And going grey isn’t the only thing we have to worry about. Thanks to changing hormone levels, lashes naturally thin as we get older, too. This leaves us with less definition around the eyes and can make us look more tired. You could resort to just piling on extra mascara — but if you want something more permanent, there’s plenty you can do to counteract it. In fact, there’s a bewildering array of options to improve the way your lashes look. Here’s our pick of the treatments that can really make a difference . . . FAKE IT WITH EXTENSIONS WHAT IT INVOLVES: Individual false lashes made of synthetic mink hair are carefully glued, one...

Top beauty tips

THIS STUFF REALLY WORKS! I have always wanted longer, thicker lashes so when I heard about this miracle treatment I was thoroughly intrigued. I met the doctor in a chic central London salon to be walked through the treatment and what it involved.  It contains prostaglandin analogue that stimulates the eyelash follicles to grow hairs that are much longer, thicker and darker. It is simple to use and after 10 weeks I can say that I’ve had amazing results.  A must have beauty treatment and a celebrity secret. Author: Danielle Lineker MIRROR, 8TH FEBRUARY 2011

Beauty insider

The claim: One drop of MyLash applied nightly along the lashline is meant to give 25 percent longer, 106 percent thicker and 18 percent darker lashes. The verdict: After clocking a barmaids full and fluttery set (of lashes!), she tells me it’s all thanks to MyLash , so I decide a road test is in order. She was onto something: it’s crazily effective. After just one application, I notice a difference the next morning. Who Magazine, November 2014. Written by: Suzanne Scott

Mylash: Vogue

Image
ELISABETH TNT GIVES UP EYELASH EXTENSIONS AND REVAMPS HER HOLIDAY BEAUTY LOOK. When the dernier cry at the Vogue offices last year was a pair of long, fluttery lashes, I promptly made a visit to i-Plaza, an unassuming downtown salon where the meticulous Yoshi worked his magic. An hour later, I opened my eyes to the Jessica Rabbit gaze of my dreams. I was instantly addicted. But intervention came by way of an allergic reaction to the lash glue after a top-up in Paris during Fashion Week turned my eyes red, itchy, and swollen. Sue Marsh, who runs a tiny lash atelier back home in London, recommended an “eyelash lift”— an increasingly popular alternative to extensions— to take the edge off. It worked. The gentle perming gel-and-tint treatment that bends hairs at the root, pushing them up rather than down, gave me eye-opening lashes for weeks— no maintenance necessary. The best part? They were all mine. With added help from treatment serums, like the polypeptide-packed NeuLash to minimize b...
