Many beauty experts, celebrities and other women around the country believe in LATISSE, a prescription treatment especially for hypotrichosis (another name for having inadequate or not enough eyelashes).

This product is available only by prescription and any doctor can prescribe it. From LATISSE…

In most US states, consumers can purchase LATISSE from their prescribing doctor. In a few states, laws prohibit doctors from dispensing prescription products so you will have to fill your prescription at the pharmacy.

This eyelash solution has a suggested retail price of $120. Visit LATISSE.com to find out more information.

Particularly around the holidays, the glamour look is in — long, thick dark lashes and true red lips. If you are considering false eyelashes, LATISSE may be another alternative. Here is what a few celebrities have to say about the product.

Actress Brooke Shields – “I used to dye my lashes, and I’ve also spent so much time on Broadway putting on fake ones then ripping them off-I’ve actually had holes in my lash line from the damage that does. So I was even more grateful that LATISSE was able to make them darker and fuller.”

Actress Angie Harmon – “It’s all about lashes, the eyes are the window to the soul, so I’m super excited about [LATISSE]. All I want is more lashes!”

Beauty expert Anastasia Soare – “I’ve learned a new trick to making heads turn! My eyes ‘pop’ with longer, thicker and darker lashes with LATISSE. It’s a great option for me that delivers results.”

Latisse from Allergan for anyone who isn’t familiar with this fairly new product was launched only a few months ago and has made quite a splash in the beauty world. Allergan who develops products for the eyes, as well as Botox, and Juvederm, discovered that the key ingredient, Lumigan in their Glaucoma medicine was making patients lashes grow long and thick. So thick that some of these patients were even trimming their newly thick and long lashes. Imagine that!

Seeing that this was something that they could possibly sell as a product to grow lashes thus began the birth of Latisse. Since it’s big launch the reviews have been nothing short of fantastic. I have pretty good lashes but still wanted to see what would happen if I started using it and after just a few weeks I began to notice that my lashes were not only longer but new lashes were coming in as well. I also decided to put any extra from each application on a bare spot on my eyebrow and to my excitement I have actually started growing brow hair there too!

For anyone who is thinking of trying Latisse you can visit their site and get all of the information you need. Although each bottle comes with enough applicators, I suggest using a very thin eyeliner brush instead to apply to your lashes. The applicators included are course and have the potential to scratch the eye when using. These are my lashes below without any touch-ups and photographed by my son less than 2 hours ago.

Latisse has been FDA approved, and is the first and only prescription treatment to help with sparse lashes to make them longer and fuller. To look at this photo you can really see how well it works.

As a celebrity make-up artist I was known as the “Queen of False Eye Lashes.” I was working with Bobbi Brown and would get requested to put on the eye lashes for the models all of the time.  Unfortunately, the glue used to put them on eventually leaves your lashes looking sparse.

Several companies released eye lash growers, Jan Marini, Revitalash, Lilash, just to name a few.  Tried them all and saw a little growth.  Then news came out that Allergan was in the process of clinical trials…which meant they were in the works of releasing the ultimate eye lash grower yet.  The key ingredient that “Latisse” contains is lumigan which was originally used to help glaucoma patients.  These patients were finding that their eyelashes were growing at such length they had to cut them.  WOW!

I’ve been using it for almost 2 weeks.  Latisse is only available with a prescription.  This is to ensure proper application and growth.  If you are interested in getting a prescription call Dr. Celia Brown at: 818-222-8232

I’m so excited to get my lashes to this length!
