It actually started as a leave-in for DH, and I've played around with some things. It may make it to the Valentine's release. I saw something interesting on QVC one day- it's Joan Rivers hair powder, and they use it to fill-in sparse areas. I tried the brow powder on my scalp, and it's not too bad really. You have to stop before the hairline, or it looks weird, but for filling in it's really not bad at all.

Fresher is better...the oils have a good shelf life- about a year, but the vitamins are good for about 6 months. Anything with vitamins I think it's better to get what you're going to use for a couple of months and then come back for more. I've seen where the vitamins are shelf stable for months, but I'm a big fan of fresh. Don't worry- it's not going anywhere.

Heavenlyfox posted pics of her growth on FB and WOW! Hope my results are half as good as hers. I didn't really notice until last night, but I seem to have a few lashes that are a bit longer than the others after only a week. But nothing like hers. Off to apply another coat :-)

Sounds good. I don't know if I'll use it up in that time so I'm going to write the date on it and buy another in 6 months. I luv it.

I'm trying an experiment with the eyelash gel. I find that one little pump is more than I need for both eyes, so I've been rubbing the extra into one thumbnail to see if it will help with nail growth. I'll keep you posted!! Lauren

I bought a mascara spoolie (or whatever they're called) from Target today...I was able to find one of the beauty brands there had one without mascara (must be one for Target, as I haven't seen this brand elsewhere...but then again, I'm not too big of a shopper). I am going to put one pump into my palm and after putting some on my eyelids, I can use the spoolie to apply it directly to my lashes, lessening the chance of getting any in my eye.

I unscrew the top and use it to sort of paint it across my just-washed eye lids, then use my finger to spread it around. I don't know how sanitary that is, but I don't plan on using one bottle for more than 6 months anyway.

I've been applying with a liner brush to the lash line, then a spoolie to coat the lashes.
