Ah. The price of beauty.
I hate all of these things which wear off if not maintained. It seems a lot of my plastic surgery bag of tricks: botox, latisse eyelash enhancer, and soft tissue fillers like juvederm and restylane all go away.
Latisse will thicken and lengthen lashes. It really really works. But the catch (ah, there is always a catch) is you can’t stop using it. I’ve been told the eyelash cycle is around 4 months. If you were to stop cold turkey, the latisse benefits would linger for a while, gradually reversing and be totally gone at 4 months.
So what to do? How can you avoid bankrupcy to have better eyelashes?
I would stretch out your use of latisse. Do it every other day, or even every third day. You likely won’t get the thickness and length you would if you use it daily, but it may be more sustainable … and affordable. Which is better than having amazing lashes for a few months and then going back to …gasp… normal.
