The Lowdown on Latisse

Want the longest lashes? Plenty of women are turning to Latisse to make their eyelashes surreal. I've seen it in action, and it is pretty amazing. Here are some before and after shots from the Latisse website: 

These images are not retouched, and the models are not wearing mascara. The women that I know who use this have had similar results, and I am so impressed with the results. 

Keep in mind that you will have to get a prescription, and I do recommend actually seeing a doctor, opposed to just going into a dermatologists office and picking it up. Certain types of skin can react differently and be sure to read all the side effects throughly to understand the risks. Here's an article in the New York Times explaining the risks, and sharing the story of one woman who dealt with the side effects.

So go and get those lashes long, but know what you're getting into!
