I wouldn't buy that as it's so much money. I buy the Cargo Lashactivator mascara and my lashes are so long I have to keep my eyes shut til the mascara's dry or I get smudged up near my eyebrows.

I think it's a fantastic product.

i use that loreal lash booster - its only about a tenner and i find it works quite well. before i used that i used to put vaseline on my lashes and that worked too,but was messy.

that stuff sounds amazing though but sooooo expensive

I went to a Trade show about 3 weeks ago and bought some for £50. I've been using it religiously every night as recommended since I got it. I can't say I've noticed any difference yet. I've taken before photos and will retake in about 6 weeks.

Only thing I would say, I usually lose several lashes per day, many of which end up in my eye, but over the last couple of weeks, I haven't had any fall out.

I'm seriously tempted although am now off to check out some of the others you've mentioned

I personally think I've been duped and fell for the hype. I think I know eyelashes are determined by Genetics, so doubt anything would really work. Probably better to have eyelash extensions, around £75 per set, last until the lash they're attached to falls out.

It used to work but then they had to change the formula as they had nicked it from another product called Latisse. Latisse does work and has been through trials but is not available in the UK yet. www.latisse.com/ It is basically the glaucoma medicine bimatoprost, brand name Lumigan packaged up for eyelashes and with a hefty price increase on the basic ingredient. They discovered it when glaucoma patients started growing long eyelashes.
