Long Eyelashes by Summer!

I am conducting an experiment on my eyelashes.

I started using a product called, Jan Marini Age Intervention Eyelash Conditioner. I have heard it works on growing strong, longer, fuller eyelashes. I waited to get the product because it was on backorder due to FDA packaging issues.

I am a dental hygienist and have a intra-oral dental camera that can take close up pictures. I thought it would be a good camera to use so I could really get a close up picture of my eyelashes.

I took the initial pictures on 3-16-07 with no mascara on. I have had permanent eyeliner done a year ago, so that is why you will see a faint brown liner.

I then took pictures exactly one week later on 3-23-07. That is one week or 7 days. I was not wearing mascara that day. There were NO TOUCHUPS done to any of the Pictures!

I used the product faithfully every night on my top and bottom lashes.

Below are the picture results. I will keep on using the product until I run out of the tube and will continue to provide pictures as to growth or no-growth of my eyelashes. I will also try to get better pictures to evaluate if there is much change.
