Application Reviews
Marina, 27 years old: Before I talk about castor oil, I’ll say a few words about myself. Nature rewarded me with wonderful, thick cilia. Every morning I start with washing and applying make-up - and I don’t change the mascara often. By the beginning of autumn that year, I began to notice that my eyelashes began to fall heavily and lost their attractiveness.
A little searching on the Internet effective drugs, opted for the most affordable and less painful tool - castorhe. I must say right away that there is an effect, of course, but it did not come at all after two weeks. But at the beginning of use, I generally went to work with red eyes for the first couple of days - as if I cried all night. After it became a little earlier, about four hours before bedtime, apply oil.
In general, it helped me, even if the eyelashes didn’t become much longer, but they stopped falling, the luster and volume returned.
Nina, 32 years old: I was growing eyelashes, growing and suddenly my master left. Made from another and ... removed after three days. It turned out that of my own little cilia, three hairs were left. My good friend advised me to buy any oil and try to restore and strengthen them.
I am allergic to cosmetics, so I increased the cilia, but I began to apply castor oil with a very small layer and even washed it off before going to bed. A week later, the layer of castorca increased, did not wash away a couple of times - it turned out that everything was fine and there was no allergy. Now I am making the second run for four weeks of use - I am very pleased with the general effect of castorca. My eyelashes are back, and now I'm trying to lengthen them by mixing castor oil and burdock oil.
And a little more information about the benefits of castor oil for eyebrows and eyelashes - in the next video.
