How it works: Well, don’t go with the literal meaning — greasing your lashes points at oiling them for good. Your lashes are the most underrated hair because they deserve the same attention as your scalp hair. We often miss on oiling them, which degrades the quality. Generally, the hair growth needs interaction between skin and the hair follicle cells. When you oil them with Castor, Fish, or Coconut fermented solution, you push omega-3 fatty acids into the eye skin— one of the necessary proteins for healthy skin and faster hair development.
How to do it: You can oil your lashes in two ways— one with the brush and the other with the fingers. Before you go for the final application, make sure that the brush or the fingers are dry and clean. A little negligence may affect your eyes and lead to infection. It’s best to apply at night just before you hit bed.
- The underused Petroleum Jelly.
How it works: Petroleum Jellies like Vaseline are underused for the potency they bear. Yes, they are brilliant for dry skin and act as moisturizers, but they have a far more significant role to play. Better skin quality assures healthy hair growth. So, when you use these super-viscous jellies right around the eyelid region, your eyelashes feel motivated to grow sharper and denser.
How to do it: It’s best to avoid finger-application and resort to safer means such as brush-application. You can rub the brush against the jelly cup and apply it slowly over the lashes. Make sure that your fingers don’t get in contact with the eye for it may bring a lot of infection. You can put it anytime; however, giving rest to your eyes just after the application will lead to quicker nutritional intake. Hence, following the process while you have gotten to the bed will make things simpler for your lashes.
