Eyes are the windows to the soul, but eyelashes are the frame that makes it pretty and enticing. But not all of us were blessed with long and sultry lashes and it is frustratingly envious to see people who do. False eyelashes might be one solution but natural will forever be everyone’s top pick. So, can you grow your lashes naturally? The answer is YES and here are 6 ways you can achieve natural long and fuller lashes. 

 

 

 

This age-old method has been creating a buzz in the beauty community. Some say it helped them grow their lashes while others say it does not do anything. So, what does science say? Unfortunately, there is no scientifically proven study that proves that castor oil makes the lashes longer, but it does help keep them moisturized. We all know that moisturization is one of the key factors in maintaining healthy hair growth. This may be the reason some people see a sudden lash growth.  

 

 

Another way to keep your lashes looking flawless is to apply pure aloe vera to it. Aloe vera is a great source of moisture and hydration that helps in the follicular development of the hair. This in turn helps with keeping your lashes nourished, healthy, and longer. 

 

 

Eyelash growth serums provide extensive moisturization and lash boost making them the best option for growing your lashes thicker and longer. Eyelash serums with Collagen Peptides and Biotin help reverse weak and brittle hair follicles and keep it protected from breakage. We recommend using this LxH Eyebrow & Eyelash Growth Serum for visibly thicker and healthier brows and lashes. 

 

 

 

Omega-3 fatty acids are not only good for maintaining a healthy body and immune system but also provide oil that is essential for lash health. Some omega-3-rich foods are salmon, oysters, chia seeds, cod liver, and mackerel. Adding omega-3 in your diet can also be done through supplementation. Try this Vegetarian-Friendly Havasu Nutrition Omega 3-6-9 Gummies + DHA on Amazon. 

 

 

 

Biotin is known to help stimulate hair growth and cell regeneration. Biotin deficiency can cause hair loss, brittle nails, and breakage prone lashes. Thousands of people have turned to this vitamin for improving overall skin, nails, hair, and lash health. Biotin rich foods are eggs yolks, nut butters, cauliflower, banana, and whole grains. You may also try supplementing with our LxH Biotin Gummies.  

 

 

A quick and natural way to lengthen your lashes? Using lash boosting mascara. This might be a temporary solution but swiping a few coats of mascara can make it longer and fuller than normal. Be sure to check the label for paraben-free and organic ingredients to make sure that you are not putting chemicals on your lashes. One tip for removing the mascara without harming the lashes is to soak a cotton pad with makeup remover and lightly press it to your eye. Once the mascara is softened by the makeup remover, gently swipe downward until it’s removed.  

 

 

 

It takes months to grow your lashes, but it can only take a minute to fall off. According to the American Academy of Ophthalmology, eyelashes naturally fall and replace themselves every 6 to 10 weeks (about 2 and a half months) and it is normal to lose 1 to 5 lashes a day. However, if you are experiencing rapid lash loss, it might be a signal for an underlying medical condition, or you might be constantly doing the following habits: 

• Some eye drops and mascara can dry out and break the lashes 
• Constantly using an eyelash curler and pulling hair 
• Getting exposed to perming chemicals 
• Rubbing your eyes can cause physical stress on the lashes making it brittle and more prone to breakage
