Quick Read
- Eyelash serums often contain prostaglandins, which can cause side effects like irritation, skin darkening, and even permanent iris changes.
- Prostaglandins are used for their hair-growth stimulating properties, but their long-term effects are not fully understood and may affect hormonal systems.
- Safer, natural alternatives exist for boosting lash health, such as serums with rosehip oil and proper lash care practices.
- Gentle makeup removal, lash-friendly oils, a nutrient-rich diet, and regular brushing can naturally promote healthier lashes.
