Lashes for Days: 4 Natural Remedies for Eyelash Growth

Who doesn’t dream of having long, luxurious, thick eyelashes? If only you didn’t have to turn to mascara to give you the length and density that you desire. Well, did you know that there are better long-term solutions than daily makeup?

Yup, you read that right. You can get those dreamy lashes with these eyelash growth remedies. They’re natural, simple, and oh-so-easy to use.

1. Use Natural Eyelash Growth Oil Solutions

A fantastic way to boose the growth of your eyelashes is to apply oil to your eyelashes every evening before you go to bed. It’s most effective when you use a spoolie, but gentle application with your fingertips will work too.

One of the best oils for this is castor oil, as this oil is well-known to support hair growth. You can also use coconut, jojoba, olive, or cedarwood oil to encourage eyelash growth.

Why not create your own concoction of your favorite oils to apply each evening?

2. Shea Butter

Luxurious, healing, shea butter has so many benefits. And it’s one of the best eyelash growth remedies, too! Packed with vitamin A and vitamin E, shea butter nourishes hair follicles and encourages growth.

It’s best to apply shea butter to your eyelashes before bed so that it can work its magic overnight. Apply it gently with your fingertips and rinse off any leftover residue in the morning.

3. Green Tea

Epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG) is a polyphenol that encourages hair growth — and green tea is a fantastic source of it! These antioxidants will not only boost the growth of your eyelashes but also strengthens the hair too.

Brew a cup of green tea according to package guidelines. Apply some of it to your eyelashes using a cotton swab and drink the rest of it. Drinking green tea has amazing benefits for your eyelashes and overall health so you should aim for two cups a day.

4. Lemon Infused Oil

No, this isn’t a part of some delicious recipe (although it sure sounds like it). It is a fantastic natural eyelash growth serum, though. The vitamin C and vitamin A present in the lemon peel are effective hair growth stimulants.

Simply soak leftover peels of one lemon in olive, coconut, or jojoba oil. You’ll do this by adding the peels and a few spoons of oil to a jar. Gently press the lemon peels against the side of the jar to squeeze out the oils. Let this sit overnight and voila! You have a beautiful natural eyelash growth oil that is almost as good as RevitaLash Advanced eyelash conditioner.
