Would you consider using the ordinary lash serum? If you have already used it, what did you think? 👯
I haven't tried it yet but it is on my list! I have tried neutrogena lash serum, and would love a video on that one! I stopped because I ran out and wanted to find something that wont aggravate eye issues I have. I have dry eyes/blocked glands, and recently had a Trichotillomania episode, so I'm desperate for something that can help and be safe for the issues I have. 😢
I think it's so rude how the new RUclips algorithm works. It used to be that what came up in a search was every video relating to the words typed and you could be confident that you'd find all the usefulness available. Now all you get is videos mildly pertaining to your search and then 3 videos down they switch the search results to viral videos they think you would like based on your search history. It took way too much digging to find this video which was wonderful and I'm subscribing! I even searched for ordinary lash serum review and this video wasn't until after weeding through clothing and Latisse videos etc lol. Honestly even Google is this way now. Hhh sorry for the rant. 😅
@@Coffeeandtypos I have the same issue as You. I have lost almost all of my eyelashes..
I would like to know if the serum helped you in any way.
@@suzib1 I personally liked the neutrogena one. I only went through one tube so it wasn't long enough to see anything major, but I had no irritation or anything, and did feel it help with some sparse areas.. I still haven't been able to get more yet, but I was hoping for a video on it anyway before deciding.
Sadly I can't say if it helped with my Trichotillomania episode as that happened way after I finished the serum. However, I've heard using castor oil can help with lash growth. I personally found this worked well (when I was using it some years ago) BUT I've heard that for people who have issues with blocked glands should avoid it, so I stopped. Until I can get professional confirmation, I will wait before going back on it.
I'm sorry I couldn't be more helpful! Maybe try castor oil? At least until new lashes are back? Ofc patch test first! But I totally feel for you and understand the struggle. 😭
I use it and find it effective! Not so much with bare lashes, but when I use mascara, the difference is VERY noticable. When first starting I was using it really regularly or if I wasn't careful with application, it would irritate my eyes. I now only use it every other day and use it sparingly. I think it's still effective even with the more limited application.
what's in it?
- water - highest %
- Glycerin - great emolliant...
- Butylene glycol - same
- Peptides - 4 types, and more proteins... based on families with ++ lashes that have a lot of these peptides...not proven
no prostaglandin analogs!
- panthenol - for growth
Bunch of stuff that is ok
Cafein... does work on hair growth, so maybe on lashes, can make telogene phase longer, lash will fall when stopped.
Thank you ❤
Thank you for these eyelash serum videos! I was wondering if you could look over the Benton Honest eyelash serum and the Gemsho Eyelash serum as well! They're very popular in the Korean beauty community!
You are such a pleasant person. I’m sure the people around you enjoy being in your presence.
Aww, thank you so much! I appreciate you!
I was surprised because it doesn’t have prostaglandins, but it works for me. I also use on my eyebrows and am seeing excellent results.
I'm glad it work for you! Thanks for sharing and for watching :-)
Is this safe to use during pregnancy?
@@mariarios-yh8epI would also like to know 🙈
I've been using it on my brows. Little nervous about anything on lashes. I might try it at some point but I think maybe I'll do it for another year on my brows to wait for a little more information and possible anecdotal warnings before trying it on my lashes
Thank you! I was looking for a serum without the side effects mentioned, and I had assumed the ordinary serum would have them too!
Glad to help!
I'm so happy to have found your channel! I have sensitive dry eyes so it's really awesome seeing makeup and serums from a eye-health perspective.. of course I do research, but its nice to see someone else do it for me hahahaha
I am so glad to be helping ☺️
This is such a fantastic video. I love the emphasis on research!!
thank you so much!
😆 Fabuuulous as always doc Rupa. I am sure all so many pple are learning hard way about all so many bad products that are all affecting the eyes and/or lashes. I know so many that lost all lashes etc due to this crazy perming of lashes and of course lash individual extentions. Even fake lashes glue and the peeling off of lashes etc. I warn a lot of my peeps about all such. You have the best to the point descriptions....luv it. Oh an of courrrse still rockin' those purple tresses.
It absolutely happens! It can be so devastating when a product doesn't work 😭 Thank you so much!!👯
You're so LOVELY. happy thanksgiving!
Thank you for the kind words!☺️
Thank you Dr Wong for the information. Subscribed your channel.
Thanks for the sub! I am glad you enjoyed.
Loved this video. I just accidentally bought Too Faced’s Better Than Sex Forplay eyelash primer. (yes, that’s the name). I’ve never used primer before! But I love their mascara. You should do a review on this product!
I will add that to my list! Great suggestion. Make sure you are subscribed and click the bell so you will see when I post it! :)
i love the lash serum videos!
Thank you!!
Hi! Thank you sm for this video! I wanted to ask if you'd recommend taking. a break from lash serums from time to time? I'm using the Ordinary lash serum right now and love it, but have heard it might be helpful for some lash serums to take a break/only use them for a few months in a row? I couldn't find a lot of information on this online. Thank you so much!
It is totally up to you! If you are not having a reaction you can continue using. If you stop using for a break you will probably see your lashes return to normal.
This was SO helpful and answered all of my questions around safety of The Ordinary's lash serum ingredients! Thank you sharing your expertise with us.
Thank you for watching ☺️
@@DrRupaWongjust making sure, is the serum safe to use or not?
This is very useful thank you so much, I bought this serum but I was scared of side effects like eye color change, phew!
Glad to help! Here is a video I have done specifically on that topic - ruclips.net/video/2OAo-mnmVUA/видео.html
Great video...thanks! Could you please review the Silly George serum? ❤
Done! Here is my review - ruclips.net/video/tmdSyn7x9RQ/видео.html
Let me know what you think in the comments. Thank you for watching! :)
I used this serum for about a week and my eyelids looked puffy/sunken in and my eyes were also dry and itchy
Can you do a video on Anteage lash serum and Reviv Lash and Brown serum? Guys, like this video so she knows we want to see a video on these other serums!
Hello, could you do a video about supplements that can help with eyelashes growth? :) thank you ❤❤❤
Thank you so much girlie
Thanks for being here 💘
Excellent content!! Thank you!
My pleasure! If you have anything else you would like to see please let me know. :-)
I just recently got new prescription glasses but I still have slight double vision with my glasses on even looking at my phone. I was using a serum but then I stopped but not sure if that’s what caused it. Is there anyway to correct it? Thank you 🥰
This is fantastic can you please review the UKLASH serum please. That one is proven to get great results!
Thank you 😊
Of course! Thank you for watching! 🌞
Hi Dr Rupa - from Sunny Queensland Australia ☺️🔆thanks for the info ☺️Will see how it goes ☺️👀
My pleasure! Let me know what you think!
I’ve been using it awhile now, and I believe it’s giving me hollow under eyes so I’ve been using it twice a week to prevent it
Thanks for sharing that with us! I hope you get good results moving forward.
This serum dried out my eyelids to the point where they were bleeding. It was not a fun experience
Yikes!! So sorry. Thanks for sharing that with us. Have any other serums worked for you?
Doctor I love your content please make more videos about visual snow and specially eye floaters...

@@DrRupaWong Thanks
@@DrRupaWongThere’s a rumor that eyelash serums make you age quicker? is that true?
I opted for this lash serum because others are too expensive and have lot of cons, even if it doesn’t end up doing anything its worth a shot
Loved this video! Thanks ! I feel safer buying it now.
Could you review NYX mascara? It’s been my staple mascara for months now:)
I'll check it out! Thank you for the idea.
Hiii, love your videos and content ❤ Can I use the ordinary lash serum if I'm only 16 ?
wondering if lash serums cause dry eye or sicca syndrome? I used latisse for years with great success however I now have sicca syndrome and wonder if this contributed to my issue. If I even try for one day to use a lash serum my eyes just ache so badly. Now I cant use anything.
Is advance genefique light pearl eye serum from lancome safe to use? Does it cause fat lost under the eye?
Hey, thanks for this video. It was very clear! I recently started using this serum and I realised that my eyelid developed an acne looking spot like an early stage of chalazion. I didn't think that the serum may have caused it because I had had a surgery because of chalazion a couple of years ago (I was using another serum). Then today, I noticed another spot on my other eye 😩 So, I don't wanna blame the product(s) for this since my eye lashes are already quite thick and my skin is almost oily... However, the timing makes me consider a correlation between them. Perhaps, the eyelash serums are not everyone 😅
Definitely! It effects everyone differently. Thank you for sharing your experience.
@@cheesuschrist81 I actually had to have a surgery because the stye turned into a cyst, and I couldn't access to any medical treatment due to the pandemic. However I recently got another stye which was pretty bad, I was kinda sure that I would need another cyst removal but I got prescribed medication and applied warm eye mask regularly. It's been over 2 months and it's ALMOST gone. It can be seen but I can feel it when I touch my eyelid, very subtle though.
hi didi, very useful. hope all of u are secure amidst daily shootings.
Glad this was helpful! We are doing okay. I hope you are too.
There’s a new one that is being “prescribed” or that’s how they promoted in the ad is called Latisse (bimatoprost), what are your thoughts on this? I’d love to hear from you ☺️ I love your channel
I will check it out. Thank you for the compliment!
I never put anything wet near my eyelids. I use this stuff in my eyebrows which is soooo fun!! 🤤
That's great!
Could you do a review on revive7? I would love to hear your thoughts!
I will add this to my list! Make sure you are subscribed and click the bell so you will see when I post it. Thank you for the suggestion! :-)
How often should I use it on my lashes?
Hello I want to ask if nanolashserum is safe?
Thank you so much for this video, I was waiting for this! I used ordinary lash serum for six months religiously every night and my lashes really did grow after a while, but my eyes started getting extremely dry and I experienced blurry vision. I’m not sure if the blurry vision was caused by the lash serum or the eye drop that I started using after extreme dryness. Also my eye leads didn’t feel healthy at all. I stopped using the lash serum 3 weeks ago and switched my eye drop and started using castor oil on my eye leads. thankfully my vision and dryness got so much better and my lashes are still long (happily whatever ordinary lash serum was doing to my lashes, castor oil is doing too without the side effects so far :D).
But because of my experience I started searching more about the ordinary lash serum and I found this in one article:
Phenoxyethanol is a synthetic preservative that was found toxic to human cells in a clinical study, as we documented in our Better Not Younger reviews article on another cosmetics brand that uses this ingredient.
Chlorphenesin is another preservative that’s even harsher in our opinion, and has been shown in clinical research to be toxic to human cells, to irritate the eye and to be toxic to cells in the eye.
This formulation contains four other preservatives: sodium metabisulfite, sodium benzoate, benzoic acid and ethylhexylglycerin.
Preservatives may be necessary in some cosmetic formulations to ensure the quality of the ingredients, but we have never reviewed a lash or brow product containing six different preservatives, and would be curious to hear from the brand about why so many are needed.
Would you pls let me know what are your thoughts on this?
Thank you so much for sharing! I'm sorry you didn't have a great experience. My thoughts on it not working out for you is that we are all different. Even if a product works for 99% of us, some of us will likely be impacted poorly. I hope you can find something that does work!
This maybe annoying but I was wondering if L’Oréal clinically proven lash serum is safe to use. I’ve checked ingredients and it says it’s “eye safety approved” but I’m still unsure if it’s ok to use. Great videos btw May use this my self
Not annoying at all! I will work on a video about the L'Oreal lash serum. Make sure you are subscribed and click the bell so you will see when I post it 🌸
@@DrRupaWong will do ! 👍🏽
@@grim_reaper_00 💖💖💖
thank you.
Welcome! Thank you for watching!
Heyy thanks for the very helpful information!! I just have a question, so I bought the serum but every time I put it on my eyelids burn so much at the beginning, so I wanted to ask if it’s normal because I heard it from many or should I stop using it? 💗
Didn't burn with me at all...
What happens if I stop using the lash serum after a certain time ? Will my lashes go back to being thin and not that long ? Thanks doctor rupa
Hey doctor
For how many months should i use this serum to get result..
And also suggest chemical free pocket friendly sunscreen too pls
I have sparse, thin, straight lashes and have tried a number of serums such as Rapid Lash, Lash Sensational, and a number of others, without a whole lot of success, despite applying them religiously morning and night. I've just started using the Ordinary one and was surprised to find it burns my eyes. I don't have particularly sensitive eyes and don't have any problems with eyeliners or even false eyelash glue. I though I would use it for a full week to see if my eyes would adjust to the product and stop burning. Nope, still burning. Additionally just today I noticed an increase in puffiness and lines around my eyes. Needless to say, this isn't an acceptable trade off for slightly longer lashes. I'll stop using it and finish using the rest up on my eyebrows. I'm an avid and experienced user of the Ordinary brand products, so this is a disappointment.
Interesting. I haven't had any size affects and wear contacts. Sometimes, if I apply too much or a heavy coat it does get in my eyes and slightly sting but it's nothing major.
Same here !!!
@@illusivity3701side effects
you’re most likely putting a thick coat of it which gets some run into ur eye. i read the directions and they say to put a *THIN* layer
The internet is being taken by storm with the Scorolash brand. Can you do a video on this? I couldn't find ingredients on their website.
Sure, I will work on this. Make sure you are subscribed and click the bell so you will see when I post it. Thank you for your suggestion and for watching! :-)
If you read the comments on The Ordinary's website for their lash serum, there are reports of people losing la lot of lashes while using the serum. What would cause that?
Like hair grower, they would shorten the life of old hairs so that it can be replaced by healthy and long lasting hair.
Thank you! 😘@@angelorange1844
Can you talk about the high risk of eye serums causing stye’s , infections, the B gland and permanent damage. I couldn’t wear make-up for over a month. A lot of pain, had to get an antibiotic. My rt eye is not the same and it’s been 6 months. Thank you♥️
Thank you for the video suggestion!
so basically apply my cold pot of coffee on my head and eyes, got it ! 😅
I just tried it for the first time. What ingredient causes it to burn and is that common?
I’m definitely late to this video but thank you for all the things you pointed out!! I’m just wondering if lash serums are safe for a 13 year old? Although, I currently use the ordinary one and have seen no side effects so far!
it is safe for whatever age!
Is it working tho?!
@@horiyamariam7963 honestly yeah i saw a difference in my lashes (more growing + stronger) plus my eyelashes started curling more
So if my lashes are naturally tiny and thin using a lash serum will just help me keep them and prevent them from falling out as often but it won’t help them grow more than their natural length? 😢
They usually continue to grow which will naturally cause them to be longer/fuller!
It makes my eyes lids go red and my eyes feel very unwell after use which is disappointing because I could see growth
Does it my eyes if it got inside of it?
I just found out my 13 year old has been using ordinary eyelash serum for several months. I feel she is too young, is it safe for teenagers?
I bought it today but after reading the reviews when I came home I’m a bit scared to use it
What lash serum would you recommend?

@@shomshomni2314 Of course! Thank you for watching! 💘💘
pleease can u do elf lash serum 😢
so yes or no?
Does Obagi Nu-Cil have prostaglandin analogs
So if I use it in my eyebrows, they grow and if I stop then they’re going back to normal? or in contrast to the eyelashes not having a permanent change, this one will actually have it?
Idk if I’m being clear with my question but hope someone can help 😟
Hey Cherry! Yes, usually when you stop using the product your lashes will return to how they were before.
@@DrRupaWong no, no, but my doubt is for the eyebrows :( I wanna make ‘em thicker but I don’t know if this is going to be permanent :(
Nothing claims or can make the claim that your lashes will stay long after stopping use. When you stop using the lashes end up back to your natural lashes. Same thing for eye brow hair.
Does it work? Must have missed it.
Hi is this lash serum breastfeeding safe?
Madam If I stop using this serum after getting the desired result will my lash start fall out again?
Can you review the maybelline lash sensation lash serum
Sure! Make sure you are subscribed and click the bell so you will be notified when I post it. :)
Hello is it safe to use it for growing my eyebrows?
Yes
if i switch from revitalash to the serum that doesn't contain prostaglandin, can I maintain the length of the lashes?
I’ve heard the answer is no. Bc your eyelashes naturally fall out and they’re not getting that ingredient anymore. However they’ll grow back eventually just more slowly
@@samtheham1280even if other ingredients are similar?
So is it safe too use ? I purchased this today about too watch this video ❤
Sure! Seems safe enough to try out. Did you try it?
@@DrRupaWong I did not try it I was worried and I took it back since I have sensitive eyes 💕❤️thank you doctor for you’re reply this feels like a dream 😀🥹

Hi i have a question, if i use the ordinary lash serum for lets say 2 weeks then i just stop what will happen to ny lashes after? Will they stop growing? Will they fall out? And should u be sacred for anything at all?
Lashes can shrink but they most likely won’t fall out, from what I’ve heard anyway
Is it safe to use in pregnancy?
Can i use minoxidil on my lashes?
Absolutely not, it can cause blindness in some cases if I'm correct
so i’m getting that its different for some ppl? i just got it and i’m scared to use it!!
Yes, everyone is different! Let me know what you think if you try it.
Can this be used after Lasik? Lash products I’ve looked at note that they shouldn’t be used by anyone who has had eye surgery.
Oh! Would like to know as well!
Can we use this product during pregnancy?
Here is a whole video I have done on serums during pregnancy -ruclips.net/video/Hnf7fyVllqo/видео.html
Let me know in the comments what you think. I hope this helps!
It burned my eye lid immediately! It was crazy
😮 Oh no!! Thank you for sharing that with us. So sorry! Have any other serums worked for you?
@@DrRupaWong I won’t try them. I’m too scared. It’s not worth the risk of eye change and vision change.
Why not introduce caffeine to your hair by drinking coffee?
Thank you, Dr. Rupa! I've been waiting for your review. Now, I'll give it a try 😊
Thank you so much for sticking around! I appreciate you, Teri. Let me know what you think! ✨
How can anything ‘nourish’ eyelash hairs - hair is dead.
In the same way as shampoos and conditioners do.
It absolutely did not work for me.
so you recommed it ?
It is worth a shot! It doesn't seem unsafe to use.
