Long, Lush Eyelashes just a few months away

I spend at least five minutes a day starring at my eyes, looking for any evidence that my small, thin set of eyelashes are actually getting thicker. I have asked my husband, Bill, to look into my eyes, but he thinks I am trying to hypnotise him, so he won't do it. Unless I am hallucinating, I am starting to see longer, beautiful lashes.




It has been three weeks since I began applying Jan Marini's, Marini Lash eyelash conditioner. The product was recommended to me by Linda Elia at her office Wax 2 Max in Scottsdale, Arizona. Linda is known around town as giving the best Brazilian Bikini wax and awesome massages (even though she hardly weighs 100 pounds!). On my last visit to her office, I was complaining about my small eyes and tiny lashes. She said many of her patients have been pleasantly pleased with their results, so I was ready to try it on for size. Literally.

Hoping that a product will work is different than believing that a product will work. I am a bit of a skeptic by nature, but as I grow older and tend to be open to more ideas and concepts, and of course, new products. I do think that the cosmetics companies know that many 50+ women will try anything once and that's why the market is flooded with products to improve our looks. That's why you need a trusted opinion from someone, like Linda, to steer you in the right direction with new products.

I also found this site that ranked eyelash conditioner products which I found helpful:

Here are my eyes (one without mascara, one with mascara) in the third week of applying the lash conditioner. I will take new pictures each week and you can be the judge. Am I spending my money wisely? Can you see the difference? Use the comment space and let me know what you think.
