Latisse for Longer Lashes



Weight loss. Depression. Anxiety. Passing a marijuana drug test. Yes, there really is a pill for everything.

Latisse, a prescription drug, is now on the market to give you the desired effect of longer and fuller eyelashes. That's right, no more eyelash curlers, and no more mascara are needed.

But according to an article from Associeted Content there are some risks caused by Latisse including changing of the eye color to brown, infection in the cornea, inflamed red eyes and darkened skin on eyelids.

What is the risk-benefit factor here? I would rather buy mascara tubes for the rest of my life than risk my green eyes turning to brown. It's just not worth it to me.

I also would not be interested in paying $120 for a prescription that lasts me only 30 days (a year treatment would cost $1440) for something where I would be getting added side effects.

But in the world of beauty, there is always a price you must pay.
