Wanted to try this as I had relatively short lashes, though relatively full. My lashes were blonde at tips, so mascara necessary to even see them.
I started using Latisse June 5, 2015 and have been faithfully using just about every night since then, only missing about 5 nights. The results are remarkable, with still 1 month to go for the full potential at 16 weeks!! No eye color change, just a slight darkening of eyelid skin at the lash line. I will say don't use the applicators that come with it, buy the Bobbi Brown fine eyeliner brush and use 1 drop for both eyes. I put a drop in the cap and then wash brush and cap every night.

Be careful it produces eye socket fat loss. Beautiful lashes on hollow eyes are not lovely.

"it is reasonable to presume that the risk of periocular lipodystrophy can likewise be reduced if the application of Latisse is limited to the lash bases along the eyelid margin."

I have been using Latisse for 3+ years and have had no negative side effects what so ever; however, I have hazel eyes, I may think twice if I had blue eyes. I love this product! <3

LOL. Of course you only apply it to the lash base along the eyelid margin. That's what you do. It's not like people place it elsewhere on the surrounding skin willy nilly, since it is such an expensive product. And the product STILL gets absorbed into your tissue and causes the terrible fat atrophy. Even glaucoma patients, who only use it inside their eyes, get the outer very visible fat loss. I stopped using Bimatoprost 3 years ago and my eyes never recovered.

It looks like you have some fat loss in your eye socket. Be careful.

My eyes have always been deep set, Latisse has not had any effect on that

Just friendly fYI.....the minute you stop using the product -POOF.....they are gone along with what you started with. My normal lashes took several months to restore

The last pic I posted was 3 weeks ago, will post another in a few weeks, when I'm at maintenance dosing three times a week. So far so good!!
Wow your results are great! Thanks for sharing. Please keep us posted on if you see any new changes or any more side effects. Have you tapered down your usage now that you have the desired results?
