I was wondering if it's safe to use caster oil on my eyelashes?

Question

Hi, my eyelashes are always falling out and leaving holes and I was trying to find a home remedy for it and found that some people use caster oil on their eyelashes.

Although I don't think it will hurt, I've also never heard of caster oil helping. There are any number of things that could be causing your hair loss. You might want to schedule an appointment with a dermatologist to discuss. Latisse can help your existing lashes look longer and fuller, but it will not encourage them to grow. Hope this helps, Dr. Nazarian
