I have green eyes with flecks of amber. I used RapidLash for 3 days, but when I found out about the risks associated with lash serums, I immediately washed it off and stopped using it. 4 years ago, I also used a whole tube of 6mL Neulash (before I knew about the risks) but didn't notice any significant change in my green eyes. I'm afraid that my eye color may darken from the 3 days I used the RapidLash since I have flecks of amber in them. Or is that not enough time? Any advice is appreciated!
