Do I Apply Latisse to Eyebrows Before or After Applying Moisturizer?

Please note that Latisse is only FDA approved for the eyelashes, however there are reports that it can achieve an improvement for brows as well. This would be an off-label use, though. It should be applied before you put on anything else, including moisturizer.

Latisse is best applied to a clean surface. Before getting started, be sure to remove makeup and contacts. Apply your moisturizer after the Latisse treatment.

Thank you for your question.

Although this has not been tested or FDA approved (off label use), I have had patients tell me that it is effective.  Put the Latisse on first and then your moisturizer.

 Best wishes.

Although this is an off label use, there have been recent reports of its effectiveness for eyebrows. Latisse should be applied prior to any other cream or moisturizer.

In our practice we recommend applying the Latisse before bed time.  Avoid using the moisturizer around your eyebrows when applying the Latisse for best results.

While the FDA approval hasn't gone through for this, Allergan is currently doing studies on Latisse for eyebrows, as well as another entire system for the scalp. Though technically "off label," Latisse should be applied to any clean site before any other product, so you should put it on before the moisturizer, as it will penetrate better.

I recommend you always apply medication to the skin BEFORE applying moisturizers, etc and these products can adversely effect the penetration of the medication. Although Latisse is not FDA approved for eyebrows, Latisse was shown to be effective in the treatment of eyebrow hairs in the January, 2012 issue of the Journal of Drugs in Dermatology. In this study, Latisse was applied to the base of the eyebrow hairs every other day.  The treatment caused increased eyebrow density, hair length, and darker color.
