Latisse is a Ripoff, Larger Size for Glaucoma $30, or $10 from India - Athens, GA

Eyelashes grew longer and somewhat thicker. The length was very elegant, but the cost iss ridiculous. Latisse is just a repackaged version of a Glaucoma treatment which is several times as much product for about $30! Ripoff!
Also, the brushes are worthless, and designed to make you waste product so it wont last. For $10, I get a generic from India, works great! I use a very thin sable brush to put a very tiny amount on, so i get less redness and no waste. Wash brush nightly.
I was getting red itchy eyes but I use less product with my own brush. Also, once the lashes grow, I only use it 2-3 times a week at most. One tiny (latisse size) bottle of generic from India lasted me over a year!
$80 tube of Trentionin only $3!
I am disgusted by Allergan, the original packaging said that bif eyes turned brown it was reversable, NOW they say permanent. They have not studied this enough.
Lashes do fall out after long term use of...
All these experts say they have never heard this to be true but I experienced it and have heard NUMEROUS reports that eyelashes become brittle and fragile after long term Latisse use.
After I get full results, I use generic Latisse only 1-2 times a week to maintain length and I use very little product. A VERY skinny sable brush and a tiny amount of product. BTW the worst problem with brittle, falling out lashes came when using the REAL product by Allergan.

Hi Alis,
Yes the brush has been brought up a number of times within the community and others have mentioned you need to get a different brush. I'm sorry it did not work out as well as you had hoped, but happy you found an alternative that works well for you.
Thank you and enjoy the rest of your week!

I work for the post office and shipping to and from out of the country is around what theyre charging. Just a flat letter size priority envelope costs $13.95.
Thanks Satistevan,
That's good info for those looking for other types of Latisse like products.

I just ordered a product called Idol Lash that is a natural product that claims to get similar result to Latisse. However, it takes about 4 weeks to see results, whereas I believe many women see results with Latisse after only 2-3 weeks. I have never tried any lash growth products before so I won't have much to compare it too, but I thought it would be wise to try something natural before heading a prescription product route. It cost me $66 for 2 tubes (which should last at least 2 months). I can let you know how it works out if you are interested. My package should arrive next week, and then I can update you on my lash progress by the first week of June.
That would be great! Does idol lash have any side effects that you know of? ESP something as bad as changing your eye color? If it doesn't I might just order that now as well and give it a try. Thanks so much for the feed back! I know lashes seem like such a small thing..but I've gotten pretty self conscious about it.
