How and with what to strengthen eyelashes?

Beautiful expressive eyes, framed by long fluffy eyelashes, are able to transform any woman. But sometimes the cilia become brittle and fragile, and then they need help. Even in ancient times, women knew how to take care of themselves, using the healing recipes of nature itself. Beauty secrets from the distant past are still relevant today.

Folk remedies based on herbs and natural oils will help to cure, strengthen and even lengthen cilia at home. And for those who do not like to tinker with masks, infusions and compresses, specially designed eyelash care products specially developed by cosmetologists and perfumers will come to the rescue.

Modern cosmetology offers a large number of eyelash care products. The first thing you need to pay attention to is the substances that make up the composition. Panthenol will help the eyelashes become thicker and longer, proteins will accelerate their growth, lanolin will make the eyelashes flexible and elastic, keratin and melanin will save them from the external environment and the negative consequences of using cosmetics.

After 3 weeks of using the conditioner, they become longer and thicker. It is important that even people with very sensitive skin can use this remedy. The conditioner does not cause allergic reactions.

It not only helps to grow eyelashes, but also serves as an excellent preventive measure against their loss, so the gel should be applied before bedtime and in the morning as a base for mascara. With regular use, the product will restore flexibility, elasticity and natural shine to the eyelashes.

Even the most effective and newest means of modern cosmetology will not help completely solve the problem of weakened eyelashes if the body lacks the necessary substances to nourish the cells. To help the body from the inside, it is necessary to include in the daily diet foods rich in vitamins and minerals.

Keratin is found in large quantities in dairy products, poultry and beef. Iron - in egg yolk, liver, apricots, beans, lentils. Vitamin A is rich in grapes, apples, carrots, milk and cheese.
