🕵️‍♀️ The Lowdown on Lash Serum DIYs

Wondering why you need to spend the money on a lash serum when you have some of these ingredients at home already? We're spilling the tea on the biggest lash myths - using Vaseline, Castor Oil, and Hyaluronic Acid as DIY lash serums.

🔍 Myth #1: Vaseline, the Old-School Savior:
Ahh, Vaseline. It’s likely a go-to for your chapped lips, but how about using it as a lash serum? NOPE! While it can provide a little moisture, Vaseline can create a barrier that hinders lash serum absorption and effectiveness. It can also clog pores and follicles, affecting lash growth and cause potential issues. On top of all that, it’s pretty messy. 

🔍 Myth #2: Castor Oil, the One Product Wonder:
We've all heard of this DIY lash growth legend, but let's spill the tea - it's not enough! Castor oil is thick, and applying it alone can lead to clumpy, greasy lashes. Again, this stuff can get messy! Nobody wants that hot mess! Plus, if you're a girly who is using a lash serum to strengthen your lashes while you have lash extensions, the castor oil will dissolve the adhesive (so that's a no-go).

🔍 Myth #3: Hyaluronic Acid, the Moisture Magnet:
Hyaluronic acid works wonders for skin, but for lashes? Not the sole vibe, babes. It's all about the balance, and HA alone can't give your lashes the TLC they need. Yes, Hyaluronic acid is excellent at retaining moisture, which can keep lashes healthy and prevent brittleness. However, while it may condition lashes, making them appear shinier and more vibrant, it won't stimulate the growth of new lashes or make existing ones grow longer. HA needs to be combined with other ingredients that promote growth to create a winning formula.

Why Single Ingredients Won't Cut It:
DIY lash serums may sound budget-friendly, but they miss the mark when it comes to lash love.  Applying one ingredient alone can lead to imbalances and even irritation! Not cool, right? ❌
