The Great Lash Experiment

There are a lot of "lash enhancers" out there. Promising longer, thicker, fuller, and sometimes even darker lashes. Most of these enhancers start at $20.00 (CAN) and can go up to thousands of dollars. They come in the form of gel liners, mascara's and actual treatments.

I am interested in these treatments as I only have OK lashes. They are average length, average thickness, and, despite my almost black (natural colour) hair, they are quite light.

I have been doing some research on these lash enhancers, and read quite a few statements that Vaseline, in fact, enhances your lashes by keeping them in great condition, lessens fallout and breakage.

Confession - I rub my eyes. A lot. I know, its so so so bad - causes wrinkles, makes your lashes fall out - but no matter what I do - I can't stop.

So I went to my local drug store. Bought a huge tub of Vaseline for $2.99 (CAN). I plan to apply Vaseline to my lashes every evening before bed for 8 weeks. I will update this blog every week or so and keep you up to date on how it's going.

This is what I'm starting with *click to enlarge*

Sorry for the crappy pictures. I assure you they are just normal average lashes.

These are my tools. The jar of Vaseline and my Clinique spoolie brush. I will keep you all up to date on how it goes. If it works, it is a very inexpensive alternative to expensive lash treatments.

Have any of you tried any lash enhancing treatments? What works well for you?
