Is there anything out there that can grow my eyelashes? I have used a ton of different mascaras and they still look very short. Please Help!

I don't know about something to grow your eyelashes longer. I have short eyelashes too and I use
Estee Lauder's "More than Mascara" and it makes a big difference. My eyelashes look longer and fuller.

i dont think ull find something to grow ur eyelashes longer but mascaras make them LOOK longer and fuller.
another point is that mascara dries out ur lashes altogether and then u lose them so they grow back but slowly so they are all shorter it would be good to not wear mascara at all but i know how it is i wear it too so unless ur prepared to give it up altogether theres not much u can do

Estee Lauders new mascarra is really good for short lashs: It's called "Illusionist" Mascarra is probably like dyeing your hair everyday...not very good for it! But what's a girl to do?!

Also have you tried fake eye lashs? Vegas Girl has a great way to put them on where they look real. If you ask her, she would probably tell you how she does it.

Try this product called Lipocils by Talika. Just find it online, purchase it and try it out. It has gotten rave reviews and has been proven to work. It actually lengthens and thickens your lashes. Good luck!

I have really long eyelashes and I still wear fake ones sometimes. They really are beautiful and no one knows they're fake. And they ALWAYS curl perfectly. You see all these "perfect" girls out there that have all the right looks - they are just using a variety of "enhancers" like fake lashes. They are not that hard to apply after the first couple times and I'll guarentee that people will notice you look different.
Try it once, you might be glad you did and surprised by the results!

Loreal makes a new product,, that has an extender on one side and a mascara on the other. I like it I curl then apply first the extender then the mascara, then I curl again. I also saw at Sephora that they will soon have a new product available that you apply I think after you put on your mascara, it is little black fibers that bind to you exsisting mascara and you can keep reapplying till you have the length you want. You can find it at Sephora.com under mascaras. Its not avaiable yet though.

I don't know what it is that Estee Lauder puts in mascaras, but I know from trying almost everything that continued use will definitely help your eyelashes grow longer. I used to use it regularly and I wish I had taken before and after pictures just to prove how dramatic the improvement was.
I recently bought Cover Girl's new multiplying mascara and after two weeks of use, my eyelashes almost look like spiders, they have gotten so long--or at least it is the illusion. Either way, I'm happy with it and it costs far less than the Estee Lauder mascara. In the long run, I don't know if it is as healthy for your eyelashes as EL was, but it definitely works, as can best be seen after several days of use. (The first few days I didn't see results as dramatic as I'm seeing now.)

poreoilyme,
I can almost assure you that what you are experiencing is an illusion or rather the natural result of wishful thinking, known in the scientific world as the "placebo" effect. In other words, you hope and assume that the lashes will grow longer and then you actually believe you "see" the results. It happens all the time with various cosmetic products that promise wrinkle reduction or other imrovements and the customer will begin to see the "results" based on the expectation of performance. In actuality, eyelash growth is v-e-r-y s-l-o-w and there would be no way to see any visible changes in length after even a few weeks much less several days. Juat to compare rate of hair growth, head hair grows at a rate of 1/2" per month. Just imagine if eyelashes grew that much. We would truly have "sweeping" eyelashes in no time at all and we could even braid them after a few months. Needless to say, that doesn't happen. I believe that you are also using a good mascara that has lash
extending particles and when they adhere to the tips of your lashes they make them look long. Estee Lauder makes those as does Cover Girl and almost all cosmetic companies.
