Have you tried every possible ways to encourage your eyelashes to grow? 

If you have spent so much money on this, then try to grow your eyelashes naturally. The cosmetics industry has made more profits selling beauty products to both sexes.  One of these products is mascara to make the eyelashes look longer, thicker and fuller.  However, studies have shown that the use of mascara actually harms the hair follicles thereby curtailing the growth of lashes.  This knowledge prompted women to look for a natural way of growing their lashes.  Although these natural methods do not promise you to grow your lashes in a short span of time, they are still safer and can give you lashes that are stronger, longer and better.

 

To fully understand eyelash growth, you need to understand their lifecycle.  Each hair that makes up our eyelashes grows for 3 months.  After reaching their maturity age, they are being replaced by new ones. Here are a few tips which you can do to encourage eyelash growth naturally. Eat a balanced meal.  The food pyramid is an excellent guide to know if you are eating properly.  Proper nourishment is not only for our body; it is also needed by our hair and nails.  Once we deprive ourselves of the proper nutrients, our body becomes weak and so does our hair and nails.  This leads to the thinning and bad growth of hair and that includes our eyelashes.  Appropriate nourishment consists of a healthy diet of lean meat, healthy fat, complex carbohydrates and plenty of water.  Eating the proper foods will help your eyelashes to grow normally and will make them healthier.

 

Food supplements.  This refers to the intake of vitamins and minerals needed by the body.  A daily intake of vitamins is needed to sustain our body’s requirements, especially if you have a stressful lifestyle.  Age also plays an important role in eyelash growth.  As we grow older, our lashes start to fall much the same way as our hair on top.  Certain vitamins can motivate its growth like Vitamin E, which can be applied to the lashes topically.  Use a clean brush to apply it on your lashes to motivate its growth as well as to make them stronger.

 

Lubricate your eyelashes before going to sleep.  Some women profess to using lubricants to encourage eyelash growth naturally.  Lubricants that contain petroleum jelly or olive oil promote eyelash growth keeping them not only longer but also fuller and stronger. Brush your eyelashes.  Your eyelashes will respond positively and healthily if you brush it.  Remember that these are hair and like your hair on top, it needs tender loving care.

 

The use of mascara may make your lashes longer and fuller but it is still not healthy to use them every day.   Some mascara can give way to eye irritation that can even lead to a bigger problem.  Mascara contains some chemicals that are not only dangerous for you but to the environment, too.  Even though you may find some mascara being sold as hypoallergenic and safe, you are still not a hundred percent sure of this claim. Following the above tips will not only help you to grow your lashes naturally but they are better options than using mascara.  They are safe not only to you but to your surroundings, too.
