As a firm believer in homeopathic remedies for most things in my life, I was so excited to learn from my sister, Dr. Allie Day-Goodwin (Homeopathic goddess, Chiropractor, Acupuncturist and Hypno-birthing instructor), that you can combine one drop of Lavender and Rosemary oil into your mascara tube to promote natural growth of lashes!
In addition to having an organic source of healthy lash promotion, these oils will make your mascara smell great, reduce clumps, and prevent flaking! I HATE flaking mascara towards the end of your tube’s life. The Lavender oil is also anti-bacterial, so it helps prevent bacteria from festering in your tube! No pink eye for me!!
So, Elaine, why are these oils so great, and why would they help my lashes grow? Well, Rosemary is the most prominent essential oil that has been studied and proven to stimulate hair follicles and generate hair regrowth. It is also anti-bacterial and anti-inflammatory. Lavender, among it’s many, MANY benefits, is anti-bacterial, anti-fungal, balancing and a cicatrizant (promotes healing).
Within about three weeks of using, you will experience a noticeable difference in length and thickness! Compared to Latisse which has proven negative side affects and could potentially harm a fetus inside of you (which should be alarming in itself), you spend a fraction of the price on two bottles of oils instead of $140/month. Sold.
How do you purchase, and what are good brands? The best brand, recommended from Dr. Allie, is DoTerra. Feel free to visit the site here and watch the video “Why DoTerra?”. I have also used this brand for years as well and trust them completely as a fantastic brand!

To add in to mascara tube, add ONE DROP of each oil to tube. Do not pump, but “swish” around to thoroughly combine with mascara.
I would love to hear about your results!
