Will Rimmel Lash Accelerator change my green eyes into a darker color?

Question

I know that using Latisse will change your eye color, but will using Rimmel Lash Accelerator change my green eyes into a darker color? And how does Latisse change your eye color? Is it because sometimes people accidentally get it in their eyes? If I start using Latisse, to not risk changing my eye color, should I make sure none goes directly into my eye?

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

Actually there aren't documented cases that Latisse changes your eye color. However, Latisse is based on a product that was used for glaucoma and when that product was put into the eye - to treat glaucoma - some people did experience a small color change. Not changing blue eyes to brown or anything excessive but only changes in hazel or green eyes with flecks of brown in them. It seems to make these flecks larger, which in turn makes the eye color seem to darken to a more gold or brownish color. It does not change the entire iris color. There are no scientific studies or papers on Rimmel so I cannot comment on it. But again, Latisse itself does not have reports on eye color change, but the product that it was based on, which was to be used IN the eye, does. "This
