You've tried every mascara under the sun, but the problem isn't with finding a good mascara -- it's with your lashes themselves. Whether your eyelashes seem to have lost their luster or if they're just few and far between, an eyelash conditioner has what it takes to transform your eyelashes into the fluttery fringe you've got your eye on.
The Conditioner
It seems like everywhere you turn, someone is claiming a new miracle eyelash conditioner, from infomercials to drugstores, and it's not making your search any easier. Go with what the professionals love! Latoya Turner, a cosmetologist and the president of Eye Deux lash enhancement studio in Virginia, loves AMPLIF-eye by Xtreme Lashes. She has been using it on clients since November 2010 with only good things to report, especially that "top and bottom lashes have grown longer and thicker."
Why It's Great
Whether your lashes have been slowly disappearing or if you were just blessed with a less-than-thrilling set, conditioner can make your eyelashes healthier. Healthy lashes are much likelier to grow. You can finally stop scolding your mascara, and false lashes will be something you do for fun rather than out of necessity. The best part: AMPLIF-eye is drug-free, so it won't cause the weird side effects you may have heard about with prescription treatments.
How It Helps
It all sounds great, but you'd probably like to understand what this stuff is doing before you put it all over your eyes ... well, on your lash line. AMPLIF-eye is full of botanical ingredients and peptides that add protein to your lashes while conditioning them. After you wash and dry your face at night, drag the application brush along your upper and lower lash lines and dream of thicker lashes!
How to Purchase
You'd like to try it but you don't remember seeing it in the drugstore aisle. You're right about that. AMPLIF-eye is available through Xtreme Lashes either online or by phone. But your best bet is to set up a consultation with a lash stylist in your area and get her recommendations.
