What is Pretty Please lash enhancing serum?
Our OG hero product, a natural lash-enhancing serum, combines nourishing botanical extracts, potent peptides, and scientifically proven ingredients that promote lash growth. We are proud that our cruelty-free formula is free of harmful prostaglandins commonly found in other serums. Additionally, we adhere to Health Canada regulations, ensuring our product's safety and efficacy.
While Pretty Please is intended for your lashes, yes, honey, you can use it on those brows, too.
How do I apply it?
1. Make sure your eyes are clean. Take that make-up off, babe. We recommend to put on Pretty Please as the final step to your skin care regime.
2. Shake the serum in the bottle, remove the applicator, and gently wipe the brush on the rim of the bottle to reduce any excess product.
3. Just like you'd apply eye liner, apply a thin stroke of serum across your lash line. Remember, you’re applying to the skin closest to the lashes (the lash root), not the actual lashes.
4. Let it dry for a few minutes before applying mascara, or any other eye makeup.
3. Apply daily for 3 months... it's as easy as that!
What's the timeline? How long does this stuff take to work?
With regular daily use, you'll start seeing beautiful, longer, thicker lashes within 4-6 weeks of using Pretty Please, but it really depends on where your lashes are in their natural growth cycle. DON'T GIVE UP, even if you think it's not working.
Use it daily (and in at least the first month, use in the morning and at night). Keep in mind, a complete lash cycle can take up to 3 months, so some users may not experience full results until then.
After you see results, no thank you cards are needed. BUT, feel free to post a selfie/tag us on social media, or DM us your progress pics.
How long will a 4mL tube last?
The duration of a 4mL tube of Pretty Please will last depends on individual usage and how often you apply it. On average, a 4mL tube of lash serum can last anywhere from 2 to 4 months. For best results, a small amount of serum is applied to the lash line once or twice a day. Remember, a little goes a long way in achieving those fluttery lashes.
What happens if I stop using it?
If you stop using Pretty Please (but, like, WHY?), your eyelashes will eventually go back to their original look after a few weeks or months (i.e. when your hair completes another full shedding + regrowth cycle).
Can I use Pretty Please with my lash extensions?
Absolutely! As you know, lash extensions can be pricey and challenging to maintain, and they may sometimes cause strain on your natural lashes. To preserve the health of your natural lashes while wearing lash extensions, using a lash serum is highly recommended.
Since Pretty Please is oil-free, it will be compatible with the extensions bonding and it will maintain the longevity of both your natural lashes and the extensions. It can also help shorten the time needed to repair your natural lashes underneath those thick extensions.
Can I wear makeup and/or contacts when I use Pretty Please?
Absolutely! Our eye lash serum is like the best wing woman.
You can continue to rock your favourite eye makeup looks while using Pretty Please. Just be sure to let the serum do its magic first and fully dry (after about 1-2 minutes), then apply your makeup as usual.
Contacts will be A-OK, too! Our lash serum is designed to be oil-free and gentle, making it safe for contact lens wearers.
Can I use this if I get lash lifts?
You betcha! In fact, a lash lift and using a serum complement each other beautifully. After achieving your desired serum results, getting a lash lift can enhance your lashes' appearance even more. We do advise waiting 24 hours after your lash lift to apply the serum for the best outcome.
Can I use Pretty Please when I'm pregnant or breastfeeding?
First off, congratulations, mama! While our eye lash serum is made with safe ingredients and is non-irritating, we always recommend erring on the side of caution during pregnancy or while breastfeeding. As with any beauty or skin care product, it's best to consult with your healthcare provider before using the lash serum during this special time. Your doctor can provide you with personalized advice based on your individual health and circumstances to ensure you and your baby's well-being.
I've heard some other lash serums are a bit sketchy. Is Pretty Please safe to use?
Yes, our lash serum is designed to be safe for use when used as directed. It is formulated with safe and non-irritating ingredients, making it suitable for most people.
*Pretty Please lash enhancing serum does NOT contain prostaglandins (the ingredients responsible for changing eye colour in some lash serums), parabens (hormone-disrupting chemicals that have been linked to breast cancer, infertility, and other reproductive issues), or any other irritating, nasty chemicals you wouldn't want around your delicate eye area.
However, as with any beauty product, individual reactions can vary, and it's always a good idea to do a patch test before using the serum on the entire lash line. Additionally, if you have any specific concerns or medical conditions, we recommend consulting with your healthcare provider before using the lash serum. Our carefully selected ingredients aim to nurture your lashes, promoting their health and minimizing irritation caused by common, harsh chemicals. In the unlikely event if any allergies to our product's components, we kindly advise discontinuing use promptly. Your safety and satisfaction are our top priorities.
I have super sensitive eyes/skin. IDK if this is going to be a hot mess?
SIS, we feel you. Our founder had the same problem, which is how Pretty Please came to be. We curated our formula with sensitive skin girls/gays/theys in mind!
Our lash serum is formulated with safe and non-irritating, natural ingredients, making it suitable for most people... even those of us with v sensitive eyes and skin.
PRO TIP FOR OUR SENSITIVE SKIN PRETTY PLEASERS: the follicles on your lash line can only absorb so much of the serum. Some people with naturally sensitive skin may experience irritation/itchiness if too much serum is just left to linger on your sensitive eyelid. We recommend to use this very sparingly - a little will go a long way! Be sure to wipe off the tip of the applicator (the brush part) along the rim of the bottle to remove any excess product. However, avoid wiping it too vigorously, as you don't want to remove too much product; a light swipe will be sufficient. A little will go a long way in promoting lush lashes, sans the drama.
Rest assured, we do not contain any prostaglandins or parabens, which are some of the nasty ingredients you may have heard horror stories about.

Switching from a prostaglandin-based serum? Read this.
Prostaglandin-based eyelash serums act like steroids that supply extra hormones to the cells along your lash line. This ongoing exposure can disrupt natural gland functions. It's important to give these cells a break so they can return to normal and allow other treatments to work as expected.
The recommended waiting period before starting Pretty Please lash enhancing serum after using a prostaglandin-based serum is 12 weeks. This timeframe allows for a significant portion of the lash growth cycle to complete and for any residual effects of the prostaglandin analogs to diminish. We know it's probably not what you want to hear, but trust us, it's so worth it for your long-term health!
Is Pretty Please vegan and cruelty-free?
Yes! Pretty Please brings you the natural beauty product you crave without compromising on quality. We are vegan and cruelty-free, because kindness is always in-style.
Can I use Pretty Please on my eyebrows too?
Heck yes! ‘90s and ‘00s overzealous eyebrow tweezing gals rejoice! Pretty Please is a popular lash serum that contains nourishing ingredients designed to promote lash growth and enhance the appearance of lashes. While its primary purpose is to be used on lashes, some users have reported using it on their eyebrows with positive results.
The serum's formulation, which includes ingredients like biotin, peptides, keratin, and panthenol, can also benefit eyebrow hairs by promoting growth and improving the overall health of the brow follicles. Using Pretty Please on your eyebrows may help achieve thicker and fuller-looking brows over time.
However, it's important to note that Pretty Please has been primarily tested and marketed for use on lashes, not eyebrows. As such, results on eyebrows may vary among individuals. Before applying the serum to your eyebrows, we recommend doing a patch test to check for any potential irritation or adverse reactions.

Does age impact results?
Yes, age can influence the effectiveness of serums, including lash serums. As people age, their eyelashes may naturally become thinner, shorter, or more brittle. This can lead to slower or less noticeable results when using lash serums. If you have “mature eyes”, you can still see improvements in your lashes with lash serums, but the results may vary compared to younger users. You may also just require more time (up to 16 weeks) to see results. Give it a try, and don't give up! Consistent use is key.
