Eyelash Growth: What Works, What Doesn’t

You’ll find loads of suggestions online for ideas or ingredients promising guaranteed lash growth results, but what works and what doesn’t? We’ve got the answers. 

Olive Oil 

Olive oil moisturises your lashes and can even help to fight off bacteria. 

Does it actually boost growth? No. 

Castor Oil 

Castor oil moisturises lashes, fights inflammation and provides fatty acids which contain useful nutrients for your lashes. 

Does it actually boost growth? No. 

Petroleum Jelly 

Petroleum jelly forms a protective coating over your lashes which helps to lock in moisture. 

Does it actually boost growth? No. 

Biotin 

Some studies suggest that biotin supplements boost the body’s keratin levels. Keratin is the basic protein that makes up hair, skin and nails. 

Does it actually boost growth? No. Whilst a severe biotin deficiency can lead to lash loss, there is no evidence that shows that biotin supplements boost lash growth.  

Crying 

Tears help to keep our eyes clear of bacteria and relieve stress which might overwise reduce the functioning of our immune system. 

Does it actually boost growth? No. 

So... what actually works?! 

The only clinically-tested means of boosting lash growth is using a Lash Growth Serum. Different serums contain different ingredients, but the EPM Enzymes in our serum extend the growth phase of the lash lifecycle, delivering longer, fuller lashes in just 6 weeks.
