I put Latisse on at night before I go to bed. Do I wash my eyes in the morning?

Question

I wash my face in the morning. Do I avoid the eye area and wash my eyes in the evening when I have a shower?

Nelson Castillo, MD · Answer

Thank you for sharing your question.  By morning it is okay to wash your eyes as the Latisse has been absorbed by your skin and hair follicles.  Hope this helps.

Thank you for your question. If you apply LATISSE® to your lashes in the evening before bed, the product should have fully absorbed into your skin by the morning. You should be perfectly fine washing your face as normal in the mornings.

Peter N. Butler, MD, FACS · Answer

This is a great question.  The medication will have been fully absorbed during the night, so you can wash your face as you would normally the next morning.

Is it safe to wash your eyes the following morning after as the Latisse has already been absorbed. Make sure not to wash the eye area aggressively with cleansers that contain detergents and to use clean hands.

J. Roberto Ramirez Gavidia, MD, FACS · Answer

Great question. Latisse will be absorbed over night, so it's ok to resume normal activities in the morning. 
It is important to be constant with Latisse as the changes are gradual. It's also importante to get it from a certified provider as the market is flodeed with imitations. 
Hope this helps!

Great question, but no worries. It will all have absorbed in your skin and hair follicles by next morning. So it is f9ne to wash your face the next am.
