This video is right up my alley! As a consumer, I am often examining where beauty meets health, and you offered exactly the kind of information that I am seeking in that quest. Thank you!
Go in your kitchen get food grade castor oil food grade olive oil food grade coconut oil. Mix equal parts and apply to clean shin lashes and brows every night. You can also add false tears to your homemade lash serum. Easy fast and very affordable.
I used Latisse for a long time, it caused edema in the back of my eye and had a hole in the back of my eye which changed my vision and had to have surgery. It is a side effect and not a common one. I loved the long lashes but not worth the side effect I had.
I'm so sorry to hear that. Yes, there are definitely potential side effects and if it's worth the risk for women, that's great. But, I just want to educate others so that what happened to you doesn't come as a surprise to them.
They are all pretty much the same. Lol. They all can cause irritation, itchy eyes and bumps and skin discoloration, but that doesn't mean they will, but they could.
I never thought about including pricing, that's a great idea! Will do for the lash serum part 2 video. Some people have requested I look at some other serums as well. I'd say my favorite until it caused my skin to darken was lashboost.
Thank you for sharing your reviews. For sure you can get Latisse to give you a promo code or something since you are highly recommending their product 😊
Thank you very much for this informative video. I’ve used Rodan and Fields for two years now with no ill effects and it has certainly made my lashes longer. I was looking into changing to GrandeLash as it is less expensive. I feel much more comfortable giving it a try now because of its similarity to Lash Boost.
Thanks for the info! FYI, Lash Boost just settled a multi million dollar class action suit re not disclosing the potential irritation and color change due to the isopropyl cloprostenate (spelling?).
I am so glad to come across your RUclips channel, where it was very insightful and entertaining to get information and advices about serums from a doctor’s perspective.
Thank you! I have zero desire to put hormones or hormone analogs around my eyes - or anywhere - so thank you for explaining what is actually in these products.
No study which shows topical biotin is effective for lashes BUT there was one study which used it in combination with minoxidil (Rogaine) and some other chemicals for male alopecia. So, might be!
What about putting Vaseline under your eyes when you place the latisse in the lower lid…I absolutely hate Vaseline but it does clog pores and keep from connection of a product or locking it in like slugging which is now popular
@@DrRupaWong Does it have the color pigmenting ingredient? Because I don’t want to lose my hazel eyes. I use their mascara too! Only one that works for me without giving me an allergic reaction
I have dry eyes and Babe Lash really exacerbated the condition to the point my lack of tear film alarmed my eye doctor. I ended up having to take doxy. I read that a very high percentage of people treated for glaucoma with the medication that contains the Latisse active ingredient suffer with dry eye.
Thank you.. A professional.. Learned.. Studied.. Not some silly girl.. Sorry to say.. Talking about something they have no idea what their talking about!!! Very informative.. I tried it all.. I find that by leaving them to grow.. Bit of tlc.. And good nutrients. My lasses are growing back.. I wouldn't use a serum.. Their my eye for God sake.. The only ones I have!!
Thanks Brenda! Yes, I think just not abusing your lashes with lots of waterproof mascara and harsh makeup removers is key. Nutrients are also so important.
I call bull 😂 I have a decent diet, exercise well, use a little bit of vasaline on my eyes once in a while, never wear make up, and drink lots of water... And I still have shorter lashes than everybody I know. Barely there
Hey doc ! I want to ask you.. my friend says oil products like castor, coconut, and jojoba works for her.. what makes it work ?? She doesn't have really thick eyebrow/long lashes genetics. And I've seen your video about castor oil, it just moisturize the lashes/brows, not making them longer...
I - and others I know - get mad dark circles from isopropyl cloprostenate (I think that's the ingredient). It looks like I've been punched in the eyes after a few weeks of usage :(
Yes, I’ve heard this too and really want her insight on this matter!!! I would love to try these lash serums and have longer lashes, but not at the expense of changing the fat around my eyes and making me look older 😬
@@jgalt5002 there’s no clear data on what percentage of people that happens to apparently but I read some dermatologist said it happens to all people to varying degrees . My lashes were phenomenal but unfortunately it sucked the fat from underneath my eyes as well as gave me dark circles
Hii ,i just wanna say that i have been checking your videos about lash growth and serums and i would really love if you could see if viebeauti eyelash serum is safe,so many people are saying it's really good and that it doesnt have prostaglandins.Tysm ♡
Thanks so much Tina! I actually did extensions for one of the other videos, so that's what I'm wearing here. But, usually I'll do lash serum with extensions to make the natural lash stronger.
Is there any way to surgically correct orbital fat atrophy and continue using latisse and revitalash? I do not want my lashes to get shorter , or is it worth it to save for eyelash transplants ?
I considered using latisse but am concerned about the "orbital fat atrophy" that you mention in your video. I have found that as I age, my face looks more drawn and gaunt than it used to, so I don't want to use anything that will emphasize this aspect. How prevalent is this side effect and is it something I should be worried about? Do the other serums you mention also have this issue?
Thanks so much, is the best information on this subject. It scares me a bit knowing that is like Lumigan, because it has to affect the eye pressure, right? Also I will subscribe to your channel 👍
Hey awesome video it was very informative. Do you know if the lash serums cause darkness& orbital fat loss because it gets absorbed into the skin and somehow transfers to other areas? Or is it because incorrect application? Can the darkness & orbital fat loss be prevented if I add like an under eye patch or Vaseline as a barrier between my skin and the chemical?
So that's what I used to recommend and what I did personally - applied Vaseline to the lower lid to prevent absorption, but it's not guaranteed. The orbital fat atrophy was when the drop was instilled in the eye, so probably less likely to happen with correct application, but still a possibility.
Hi! Your videos are very informative. So glad these information are coming from an Ophthalmologist. I’m always so skeptical on any cosmetics and always try to read up as much reviews and research as possible before purchasing. Is it possible to look into this recent line of lash serum called DIME lash serum, which got a lot of good reviews and claims in being non irritant and vegan? TIA!💓
I have used grande lash and brow serums. It really works. My lashes were so long that i can see them like false lashes. I loved it but it darkened my eyelids. I chose my tiny lashes over dark lids and stopped.
hi i’m really interested in getting lash boost but i’m worried about some of the side effects and hypothetically if i got bumps and darkness would they be permanent? or temporary? and can it cause permanent damage to my sight? i really don’t want to buy something that will really effect my body! anyway thank you so much for educating!
I definitely recommend you see your eye doctor. Lots of things that can cause severe dry eye which require additional treatments like antibiotics, Restasis or steroid eye drops.
Actually just did a video on this ruclips.net/video/2OAo-mnmVUA/видео.html and I would beware of any of the beauty lash serums, because most have similar active ingredient as Latisse, and MAY have the same iris color changing effect (the ones you buy in a department store simply don't have to disclose that because they didn't have to undergo FDA studies)
Hi, Dr. Rupa, can I mix Latisse with castor oil? Like if I use Latisse 3-4 days a week, n i use castor oil on those days where I don't use Latisse, to let my skin get use to Latisse slowly to prevent irritation?
I have the same question. Is it okay to mix Latisse and coconut oil/castor oil? Also, when you said you use a mixture of serum and extensions, my lash technician advised me to not apply serum as it will dissolve the glue. Did you mean that you use serum after removing your extensions before getting a new set applied?
I used Grande Lash for a while until it started to irritate my eyes. My lashes grew amazingly long but I'm too nervous to try anything now. What is your opinion on the dr.lara devgan lash serum. Its defnitley an investment.
I've heard that coconut oil or castor oil is a good natural alternative to growing lashes. Are both of those safe to use on lashes? Is it safe if it should get into the eyes as it kind of melts and glides around the eye area?
@@chellestan yes it was irritating to me too. I've tried coconut oil and its not irritating like castor oil is but I don't apply it consistently. So I'm not sure if it actually works or not.
Who am I kidding I just need to research the best mascara, invest in a curler and maybe go back to some type of oil for growth. I can't afford the risks and want more kids urgently. 😅🤐🤭☺
Ugh I’ve been using grande lash for 5-6 months and i didn’t even know this.. now I’m scared i have really light brown eyes and i don’t want them to get darker. Does this necessarily happen to everyone??
It sounds like the actual ingredient you’d want in these serums is the very last ingredient, so the least amount compared to all the other fillers. Seems like such a waste for the price to not get the thing you came for. That along with the extracts that have no purpose, seems scary to risk putting near your eye. I wish you had included the lash serum from Younique as well.
I can definitely do a Part 2 - there are some other serums I wanted to get to, but didn't want to make a 45 minute video. Lol! I'll add Younique to the list. Any others?
@@DrRupaWong Hi Dr. Rupa, are you an ophtalmologyst? And i want to ask you about those serums for eyebrows only, they can cause also fat loss around the eyes? Help me please, i have big problem in my eyebrows 😩
I’m a med student and when I was taking ophthalmology the female residents recommended buying the generic galucoma drops and applying them to the eyelash line without getting it in your eyes. I didn’t do it because that sounded dangerous tbh hahahaha. Thoughts?
Thank you so much for this video! I was wondering about your thoughts on the Dr. Lara Devgan Platinum Long Lash. It seems to be safe to use but I'm honestly afraid of all these side effects and want to know if they are possible with this product, as well. Here is the ingredient list: Water, Acetyl Tetrapeptide-3, Butylene Glycol, Trifolium Pratense/ Clover Flower Extract, Hydroxyethylcellulose, Myristoyl Pentapeptide-17, Glycerin, Ethylhexylglycerin, Panthenol, Disodium EDTA, Sodium Citrate, Sodium Hydroxide, Dextran, Citric Acid, Phenoxyethanol
Just wanted to check - was there a follow-up to your question? I did not find a prostaglandin / analogue in the ingredients, but there are some studies on the efficacy of the peptides.
Thank you so much for the info! I have very sensitive dry eyes and photo phobia so I always try to be extra cautious with new eye products. I've been looking into Silly George Lash Serum, they have great reviews but I couldn't find much info on the potential side effects of these ingredients. Any thoughts? Ingredients: Purified water, Sodium chloride, Benzalkonium chloride, EPMBiological Enzyme, Citric acid, Disodium phosphate, Cellulose gum.
I am a retired ophthalmic technician. I miss my Lumigan samples because they made my lashes really long and pretty. Some of our male glaucoma patients used to request lash trimming because their lashes would be up against their eyeglass lenses. One of your commenters claimed Latisse caused a hole in the back of her eye causing vision loss. I worked at a large retina practice for 9 years. Applying an eye drop to your lashes will not cause a macular hole!
Absolutely correct! Some cases of macular edema with prostaglandins which I think is what the comments must have been referring to. Sometimes you can get a macular pseudo hole with edema, so that's what I assumed the commentor meant.
@@DrRupaWong Your response to this comment does not make sense considering the response you gave the aforementioned commenter "a breeze" that reported the referred side effect. This is the copy/paste of your response: «I'm so sorry to hear that. Yes, there are definitely potential side effects and if it's worth the risk for women, that's great. But, I just want to educate others so that what happened to you doesn't come as a surprise to them.». I interpret this response as a validation. Yet, now you seem to be contradicting yourself. Would you be so kind as to clarify your position when it comes to the side effect in question, please? I am confused when it comes to the purpose of this video, all things considered, and your apparent contradiction. Thank You.
@@sandraw7832 they def aren’t as prominent anymore but the dark spot that formed on the outer crease area of my eye is still there and noticeable even after dropping it for a year ☹️ I definitely don’t recommend it.
Dr. Rupa Wong I worked with a girl that mixed jojoba oil and cold pressed castor oil. She said it worked and I did notice her lashes were longer and fuller. I know both of these oils have wonderful benefits, but do you have any insight on applying them to your lash line? I don’t want to go blind!
Thank you. I just ordered the Grande Lash in the mail. This is excellent information to have. I also purchased organic castor oil for eyelash conditioner. I’ve only been applying it sporadically. Is that safe to put on your eyelashes?
I looked up “do lash serums work” and yours was the first video to pop up. Glad to hear all this important info before considering other peoples testimonies about lash serums and making my choice.
Very helpful! I had irritation from Revitalash, but no problem with Neulash and it seems to enhance noticeably volume and lash length with consistent use for 7 or more months. Thank you for a great ingredients education!👏🏻
Yes, I got Neulash from an ophthalmology conference, so figured it must be pretty decent. I haven't tried it for an extended period of time yet though! Glad to hear it works for you.
I have heard of this one! It is on my list. If you would like to watch when I post about it make sure you are subscribed and click the bell so you will see when I post. :) Thank you for being here!
Hi Deandre, I will look into this. Thank you for the suggestion! In the meantime, if you would like to watch my video on my favorite natural serums, you can watch it here: ruclips.net/video/9ehrWmpxQZQ/видео.html
Hello, LOVE your videos! They are SO informative. I am inquiring about Latisse because it causes hair growth, however, when discontinued the hair growth gradually returns to previous appearance. If so, what would you recommend? Thanks! ♥️
Yes unfortunately once you stop using it, it does return back to your usual lash length. I know some people have a lot of success with lash conditioners, though they haven't been proven to decrease lash loss. I actually stopped using everything and am just giving my lashes a break!
If you quit any serum the lashes eventually go back to normal. But once your lashes are where you want them to be you can just use the serum every other day, 1x a day or every 2 days, so it's much cheaper.
This video is right up my alley! As a consumer, I am often examining where beauty meets health, and you offered exactly the kind of information that I am seeking in that quest. Thank you!
Wow - thanks so much for your kind comments! That's exactly what I'm striving for. Look for more eye beauty health videos to drop soon!

Thank you so much for this video! I was wondering about your thoughts on the Dr. Lara Devgan Platinum Long Lash. It seems to be safe to use but I'm honestly afraid of all these side effects and want to know if they are possible with this product, as well. Here is the ingredient list: Water, Acetyl Tetrapeptide-3, Butylene Glycol, Trifolium Pratense/ Clover Flower Extract, Hydroxyethylcellulose, Myristoyl Pentapeptide-17, Glycerin, Ethylhexylglycerin, Panthenol, Disodium EDTA, Sodium Citrate, Sodium Hydroxide, Dextran, Citric Acid, Phenoxyethanol
I will research it!
@@DrRupaWong Thank you so much!
Just wanted to check - was there a follow-up to your question? I did not find a prostaglandin / analogue in the ingredients, but there are some studies on the efficacy of the peptides.

Thank you so much for the info! I have very sensitive dry eyes and photo phobia so I always try to be extra cautious with new eye products. I've been looking into Silly George Lash Serum, they have great reviews but I couldn't find much info on the potential side effects of these ingredients. Any thoughts?
Ingredients: Purified water, Sodium chloride, Benzalkonium chloride, EPMBiological Enzyme, Citric acid, Disodium phosphate, Cellulose gum.
I am a retired ophthalmic technician. I miss my Lumigan samples because they made my lashes really long and pretty. Some of our male glaucoma patients used to request lash trimming because their lashes would be up against their eyeglass lenses. One of your commenters claimed Latisse caused a hole in the back of her eye causing vision loss. I worked at a large retina practice for 9 years. Applying an eye drop to your lashes will not cause a macular hole!
Absolutely correct! Some cases of macular edema with prostaglandins which I think is what the comments must have been referring to. Sometimes you can get a macular pseudo hole with edema, so that's what I assumed the commentor meant.
@@DrRupaWong Your response to this comment does not make sense considering the response you gave the aforementioned commenter "a breeze" that reported the referred side effect. This is the copy/paste of your response: «I'm so sorry to hear that. Yes, there are definitely potential side effects and if it's worth the risk for women, that's great. But, I just want to educate others so that what happened to you doesn't come as a surprise to them.».
I interpret this response as a validation. Yet, now you seem to be contradicting yourself. Would you be so kind as to clarify your position when it comes to the side effect in question, please? I am confused when it comes to the purpose of this video, all things considered, and your apparent contradiction. Thank You.
I used the grande lash serum for 2-3 months and now I have dark spots on my lash line where I applied the serum ☹️😞 I stopped using it 👍🏼
Did they go back to normal after you stopped?
@@sandraw7832 they def aren’t as prominent anymore but the dark spot that formed on the outer crease area of my eye is still there and noticeable even after dropping it for a year ☹️ I definitely don’t recommend it.
I didn’t see you review rapid lash which is one of the very first ones I ever heard of. Could you do that one please?
Absolutely - there are so many serums I wanted to get to but I didn't want to make an hour video! I'll put that on the list.
So what's a safe lash serum that one should actually use to grow their eyelashes that doesn't have prostaglandin analogues?
So far I haven't found one! If you know of one that seems to work, let me know!
Dr. Rupa Wong I worked with a girl that mixed jojoba oil and cold pressed castor oil. She said it worked and I did notice her lashes were longer and fuller. I know both of these oils have wonderful benefits, but do you have any insight on applying them to your lash line? I don’t want to go blind!
Planning on doing a castor oil video next. I did one on coconut oil right here ruclips.net/video/F_VQTN_HZO0/видео.html
Look up WooLash!
Platinum Long Lash by Dr. Devgan Scientific Beauty!
Thank you. I just ordered the Grande Lash in the mail. This is excellent information to have. I also purchased organic castor oil for eyelash conditioner. I’ve only been applying it sporadically. Is that safe to put on your eyelashes?
I haven't researched castor oil yet, but everyone keeps asking so that'll be the next video I film (probably come out in 2 weeks)
It works dear but it darkened my lids.
@@ilhanmohamed5846 Yes I think so many of these serums can but it's just not well known to most consumers that this is a side effect.
So happy I came across your page!!
Thank you! So glad you enjoyed watching! Making lists for future videos. Let me know your thoughts!
I looked up “do lash serums work” and yours was the first video to pop up. Glad to hear all this important info before considering other peoples testimonies about lash serums and making my choice.
Learnt a lot in this video, thank you for an incredibly informative post!
Thanks so much for watching! I just did one on iris color darkening from lash serums too.
Which one would you recommend for sensitive eyes? I tried grande lash & experienced irritation/redness
Shortly after using an eyelash serum (Babe) I developed dermatitis around one eye, and then got a stye (first ever)
I'm so sorry you had that reaction!! Thank you for sharing that with us.
My question if a product it has side effects that can be harmful and less harmful then why sell it
Capitalism
Very helpful! I had irritation from Revitalash, but no problem with Neulash and it seems to enhance noticeably volume and lash length with consistent use for 7 or more months. Thank you for a great ingredients education!👏🏻
Yes, I got Neulash from an ophthalmology conference, so figured it must be pretty decent. I haven't tried it for an extended period of time yet though! Glad to hear it works for you.
Really appreciate this thank you
You're very welcome

Can you do a review on maybelline eyelash serum
Hi Deandre, I will look into this. Thank you for the suggestion!
In the meantime, if you would like to watch my video on my favorite natural serums, you can watch it here: ruclips.net/video/9ehrWmpxQZQ/видео.html
Hello, LOVE your videos! They are SO informative. I am inquiring about Latisse because it causes hair growth, however, when discontinued the hair growth gradually returns to previous appearance. If so, what would you recommend? Thanks! ♥️
Yes unfortunately once you stop using it, it does return back to your usual lash length. I know some people have a lot of success with lash conditioners, though they haven't been proven to decrease lash loss. I actually stopped using everything and am just giving my lashes a break!
If you quit any serum the lashes eventually go back to normal. But once your lashes are where you want them to be you can just use the serum every other day, 1x a day or every 2 days, so it's much cheaper.
