I’m one of those girls who loves makeup–mascara in particular. I will try anything that says it will make my eyelashes longer, thicker, and more lush. I was really excited recently when I saw that new mascara that puts the little “tubes” on your eyelashes to make them longer. Excited until I tried it, that is. Yuck! I asked my husband if my eyes looked any different and he said that they looked “messy.” Yeah…that’s because I couldn’t get the clumps out. And when I tried to wash it off, I ended up losing a lot of my eyelashes. It wasn’t worth it. I seriously considered trying extensions, but who has time for that?

Imagine how excited I was when I heard about Lilash. Lilash is an eyelash growth stimulator. I checked around for Lilash reviews online and found generally positive feedback. Some of the Lilash reviews were downright glowing! But could I remember to use the Lilash every day for 4-6 weeks and be patient enough to wait for the results?

I was worried at first that I would have to put on the Lilash rather than regular mascara, and it is clear. I don’t like clear mascara. I was wrong about that. You actually put the Lilash on along the base of your lashes like a liquid eyeliner. Once it dries, you can do your eyes as normal. First problem solved.

My second issue is that I am a contact lens wearer. I wear them night and day, 7 days a week. I was worried that Lilash would irritate my contacts because I have read that other eyelash growth stimulators irritate your eyes. Luckily, from day one I have not had any problems at all. But what about the 4-6 week wait?

The good news is that in only 10 days, I am already seeing results. I have blonde eyelashes, so I will always have to wear mascara. However, in just 10 days of Lilash application I can honestly say that I am seeing a big difference. The lashes are long enough already that they are curling up on their own–noticeably. With just one coat of regular mascara, I am seeing a big difference.

Why did I call this my Lilash Review Part One? Because I intend to be back in a few weeks, once I have given Lilash the full 4-6 weeks it requires. For now, check out the official Lilash reviews on their website. And get free shipping on your order.
