I suggest using the applicators that come withLatisse. The recommended usage is one applicator per eye, but some of mypatients tell me that they use one for both eyes and then dispose of thatapplicator.
It’s recommended that you use the official applicator because that is how you know your are getting the exact dosage to grow the lashes. The applicator was also designed to help prevent getting the product into the eye. Also, Latisse was studied using the official applicator, not by any other method. With any other applicators you just don’t know what you may get.
The OFFICIAL recommendation of Allergan is that you should use one brush PER eyelid one time. Doing anything else deviates from official company recommendations. That being said, a lot of women use smaller brushes to stretch Latisse to two months per kit. And it works just fine. Be careful about potential cross contamination of the eyelids and change brushes frequently. To see THE MOST comprehensive page on LATISSE on the Internet, click on the link below - Dr. P. Aldea
To be on the safe side, I would recommend you stop using Latisse while pregnant. There is no research indicating the impact of the product on pregnancy, so it's always better to be safe than sorry.
One very rare risk is an increase in brown pigmentation, however I haven't heard about brown eyes turning lighter. This should be checked out by your opthamologist.
Yes, you will have to see a licensed doctor to obtain a prescription for Latisse, because you will have to first undergo an examination and review of your medical history to make sure the product is safe for you. Latisse is not suitable for everyone.
You won't have to "wash off" latisse because it gets absorbed by your upper lash line. Nothing will be there in the morning to wash off, so you can put on your makeup as usual.
