If you haven’t noticed, long and voluptuous eyelashes are an obsession for many these days. From stocking up on “falsies” to investing in long-lasting lash extensions, there are many ways to up your #LashGame.

As with (almost) everything, we at EG took the natural route in joining this growing trend by creating a DIY Natural Lash Lift. All it takes is a cocktail of natural, nourishing carrier oils (like Cucumber Seed, Camellia Seed, Argan and Apricot Kernel) and voila! — your lashes reach new lengths. Here’s how to achieve longer-looking lashes, the natural way.

What You Need

2 ml Cucumber Seed carrier oil

2 ml Camellia Seed carrier oil

1 ml Argan carrier oil

1 ml Apricot Kernel carrier oil

Empty mascara tube

How To

Yield: 6 ml of lash serum

Add carrier oils to an empty mascara tube and shake to combine. Simply apply a few coats at night after mascara has been removed, or in place of mascara. Avoid getting serum directly in the eyes.

Hi Kathy! Yes, there will be no harm to your eyes, though you may experience momentary blurriness.

Edens Garden

What do you do if if gets in your eyes? The oils will give you blurry vision for a bit but shouldn’t cause any harm right?

Kathy

Hi Jan! Apricot Kernel is rich in oleic acid and vitamin B-17, Argan and Camellia Seed oil contains a significant amount of vitamin E and Cucumber Seed is rich in linoleic acid, making for an excellent lash growth formula. You can use all four carrier oils, or just one!

Edens Garden

Does a lash serum really require ALL these carrier oils? Can yo please provide the benefits of each oil, such as vitamin E content, etc.?
