Why start using an eyelash and eyebrow serum?
Although eyelashes and eyebrow hairs constantly renew themselves, certain external and internal factors weaken them, slowing their growth and exacerbating their loss. Among these factors, we can mention inappropriate care and actions (insufficient makeup removal and cleaning; excessive rubbing), stress and excessive secretion of cortisol, hormonal changes during pregnancy and menopause, certain conditions such as alopecia (partial or total hair loss), madarosis (loss of hair) or hypotrichosis (halt in hair growth).
Thus, if you find that the quality and quantity of your eyelashes and eyebrows are compromised, it is possible to consider targeted care. Enhancing the health of these hairs and promoting their growth, eyelash and eyebrow serums boost their density and length. The result: voluminous eyelashes and full eyebrows.
When should you use an eyelash and eyebrow serum?
The application of this type of treatment is preferably done in the evening. This allows the treatment to work overnight, when the cellular renewal process is in full swing. However, applying it in the morning or twice a day (morning and evening) is not ruled out. Indeed, some serums can replace the makeup base. Acting as a primer, they help the mascara to last longer.
The golden rule is toalways use this type of treatment on cleansed lashes and brows.Start by using a preferably oily makeup remover to thoroughly remove any potential residues of mascara and eyebrow pencil. For this essential step in your beauty routine, you can use ourminimalist makeup remover oilwith just 7 ingredients and apply it usingreusable cotton padsmade from washable bamboo fibres.
In terms of usage period, a "course" of a minimum of 3 months and a maximum of 6 months is recommended. Depending on the nature of the hair, some may observe an increase in length after just two weeks, while others will see effects after two months of product use.
