So I started using Latisse in June of 2014 to help grow my eyebrows lost to seborreic dermatitis . Some grew back but not enough to be noticeable . I ended up getting permanent makeup to help me get through days without feeling depressed .. Anyways permanent makeup looks good and looks very natural with the eyebrow hair I have left but I'm starting to lose that now too .. Please what can I do to grow eyebrows I'm still using Latisse without much result I'm very depressed and worried

Yes, latisse will darken your eyelashes a shade or two which can be especially noticed (and often appreciated) by patients with blond hair. Although it's not approved by the FDA for use on the eyebrows, many patients have done so with great results. Best, Dr. Nazarian
I have never heard of Rimmel Lash Accelerator changing eye color. And frankly, the risk of that happening with latisse are slim since latisse is applied to the lash line and not into the eye itself like glaucoma medication. Hope this helps, Dr. Nazarian
