Yes, if you can't use the original Latisse brushes then you can use a thin eye liner brush to apply Latisse. It will give more precision than a normal shadow brush.
I don't think that's a good idea. You want to be able to precisely control the amount of latisse applied and where. It's best to use the applicator brush that comes in the package or a very fine eyeliner brush but then make sure to clean it thoroughly after each use. Best, Dr. Nazarian
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. The issue with eyeshadow applicators is that they often have asponge tip that will absorb the product. That means less will go to the lashbed and that may affect the results. Also, unless you are using a new eyeshadowapplicator with each use, it won’t be as sanitary.
Thank you for your question. It is not recommended to use a different brush than the one provided, the applicators in the box were designed for the product and ensure you are despensing the appropriate amount for best results. An eyeshadow applicator may absorb to much of the product. Best wishes,Pablo Prichard MD
The Latisse applicator was specifically designed for applying Latisse. That said, if you're able to carefully apply in a similar manner with a different brush which doesn't absorb too much product (wasteful/costly), then there should be no issue.
Sure, you can, but be warned that the Latisse brushes are made so that they don't absorb excess product and allow you to get the most bang for your buck.. Many makeup applicator brushes can absorb product so that means you won't be getting as much on your skin.

My advise would be to discontinue use until the rash heals. Then, start again. However, if the rash reappears, you could have developed a reaction to the latisse. At that point, consult your dermatologist. Best, Dr. Nazarian
If the price of Latisse had doubled, then I really need to catch up to that. I have kept my prices very close to the same for a long time - meaning since Latisse came out in 2009. The 5 ML Latisse kit launched around August 2012 with a list price of $179 from the very start....
Most likely, yes. Your lashes will grow back. Unless, they've been damaged which can happen with continual false eyelash use. Latisse can help them grow longer and look fuller which might help as they grow back in. For the future, don't ever remove false eyelashes yourself. Best, Dr. Nazarian
