Hi Amiga, are you wondering if eyelash serum actually works? If so, what are the best ones out there?
I had a doctor in my makeup chair tell me some serums DO change your eye color, we don’t want that.
Even though in Holland these serums supposedly are not for sale anymore, I would still research the heck out of a serum before using it.
Let me do the work for you!

These are my research result for Eyelash Serum. Plus the top 4 Best Serums out there.
Can you Transform your Eyelashes with Serum?
YES, you can, but this is based on the results that I have seen on other people in my chair and on colleagues who have used it.
For my own experience with Eyelash Serum read my previous post Boost your Confidence with your Eyelashes there you will find the Best Lash Care Products, Mascara Primers, and my all-time favorite Mascaras.
If you are considering a growth serum, I recommend doing your own research, because you are going to use it on your very sensitive eyes and you should take caution.
In this blog post, I did the work for you and share my own research results and where I got this information from so you can have a look at them yourself.
I always recommend doing your own research, not only on makeup but on everything in life.
Types of Eyelash Serum
There are 3 Types of Eyelash Serums.
- Prostaglandin serums. In some countries, these products are sold as a medication and not as a cosmetic. They contain hormones (my Lash Extention Salon told me to avoid hormones in Eyelash Serums at all times). Read this post about The Unspoken Truth About Prostaglandin (Hormone-Based) Lash Serums. That Prostaglandin serums work for hair growth is a fact. Prostaglandin eyedrops are being prescripted for Glaucoma (an eye diseases seen in humans and animals). My dog has Glaucoma, one eye had to be removed and her remaining eye is blind because of Glaucoma, a side effect of this medication for Glaucoma is hair growth.
2. Botanical Serums. Read the post about Don’t Get Fooled! Ingredients To Look For And Avoid In Eyelash Growth Serums.
3. Peptide Serums. The proven serum alternative for toxic, hormone, and side effects-free formula is a peptide-based serum. The two ingredients you’ll want to look for are biotin and peptides says Dr. Joshua Zeichner, M.D., F.A.A.D., the director of cosmetic and clinical research in dermatology at Mount Sinai Hospital in New York City. According to this article The One Ingredient Your Eyelash Growth Serum Should Have In It.
Key Ingredients for Peptide Serums: Peptides (like Acetyl Tetrapeptide-3, Myristoyl Pentapeptide-17, and Biotinoyl Tripeptide-1), Conditioning agents (Biotin Vit B7, Arginine, Hydrolyzed Soy Protein, Panthenol & Calcium Pantothenate Vit B5, Niacinamide Vit B3, Arctium Majus Root Extract). According to this article Don’t Get Fooled! Ingredients To Look For And Avoid In Eyelash Growth Serums.
