I have been obsessed with my lashes lately. I wear mascara daily but there isn’t just one mascara out there that can give me the lashes that I really want. I’ve also tried fake lashes in the past (see a makeup lesson here and a beauty look here), and have also done the lash extension thing (with Sweet Grass Spa Here and with Flirt Custom Lash here).
Although I liked the results of both options, they didn’t really work for my lifestyle. Fake lashes are just a pain for me to apply and lash extensions are hard for me to maintain and upkeep since I’m constantly testing out eye makeup products.
As you may recall, I visited Beauty Room recently for a Lash Lift service and I’m now addicted! On that visit I also purchased a product called EyEnvy which I first heard about from my friend Lucky. And let me tell you – I’ve found the REAL secret to lush lashes!
EyEnvy is a serum that can be used on the lashes and the brows to lengthen and create more fullness. The serum contains a number of ingredients to help condition, strengthen, and repair damaged hairs; plus it offers many other benefits.
Here is the full list of ingredients from the website:
Aqua/Water, Glycerin, Sympeptide 226 EL, Hydrolyzed Glycosaminoglycans, Sodium Hyaluronate, Palmitoyl Pentapeptide –4, Yeast Extract, Chamomilla Recutita (Matricaria) Flower Extract, Hexapeptide – 11, Arcyostaphylos Uva URSI (Bearberry) Leaf Extract, Retinyl Palmitate(Vitamin A), Vitis Vinifera (Grape Seed Extract), Panax Ginseng Root Extract, Niacinamide (Vitamin B3), Magnesium Ascorbyl Phosphate (Vitamin C), Tocopheryl Acetate (Vitamin E), Sodium Lactate, Sodium PCA, Hydroxyethylcellulose, Polysorbate 20, Proline, Methylisothiazolinone, Phenoxyethanol, Panthenol (Vitamin B5), Sorbitol, Triethanolamine
It’s quite easy to use. The brush is similar to a thin liquid liner brush and all you do is apply it to the lash line every morning.
At first I was quite doubtful that it would work, but after seeing the results on Lucky and a couple of other friends, I decided to give it a shot. I started using it in December and after about 5 weeks I saw a difference; my lashes were longer and I had more of them. I was applying the EyEnvy at my lash line, including all the way to the inner corner of my lashes. I started to notice long hairs growing right in the corners that actually became kind of annoying! I’ve since stopped applying the product all the way to my inner corners; but the point is that this stuff WORKS!
Over the last few weeks so many people have been commenting on my lashes asking if I was using lash fillers…including Grace Lee, Maybelline NY Canada’s lead makeup artist, when I saw her at fashion week! That’s when you know it’s working 😉
Here is a photo of my lashes in December. The first is a before, then when I had my lash lift and then after using EyEnvy:
I’m not sure if you can tell that my lashes are longer in the photo, but they are definitely fuller. I wouldn’t say my lashes are thicker, but I just have way more of them so the overall look is more dramatic. You may be able to see my lower lashes are bit longer too – I’ve recently started using the EyEnvy on my lower lashes as well.
Here’s a side view of my lashes that shows the length better:
I absolutely LOVE this product and I am now a believer. It’s definitely pricey though – about $95. OUCH! But….the results speak for themselves and formula remains active for 9 months once the tube has been opened.
I purchased my tube of EyEnvy through Beauty Room located in Liberty Village. You can check out the website to find a retailer near you.
So, what are your thoughts on EyEnvy? Would you be willing to give it a try?
I love it ,i didn’t even have enough length to attach extension onto.After this I don’t need extensions.
So glad hear it works for you!
I used this product for the last 4 months and my lashes are much longer! However, I noticed the red veins on my eyelids are much more pronounced. Did you notice this as a side effect as well? If so, I was wondering if I discontinued use if they would go away?
Hi Cam! Thanks for the comment. Yes I found that after three months if I used the serum once a week for maintenance instead of everyday the redness disappeared. Only realized that after using it for almost a year! Try that and see if it works 🙂
This looks incredible!!! Look like I need to stop into the Beauty Room this week!
You DEFINITELY need to go! I miss the eyenvy + lash lift combo…have to wait til after I stop nursing my little one to go back!
Hi Elaine. Your lashes look fabulous!! I also found that my lashes were much longer after 3 months of using the product. Unfortunately, my lashes are shorter again even though I have been continuing to use the product. I do not know if I got a bad batch or what happened. I know that I found it hard to remember to use it every second day after the three months so I started using it everyday again, Perhaps that causes a problem, I do not know. I am not sure who to ask these questions to. Would you have any advice? thanks!
Hi Cindy! You know what, I stopped for a bit and then went back and my lashes were shorter — it was explained to me that I may have just started at a regrowth time. So I took another break, started again it worked…and this time I only used it for 3 months and then just maintained (used it every week or so) and my lashes are still long! I will reach out to some of my lash experts and ask them to also respond to you as they may have seen this issue with some of their clients.
I have recently started using EyEnvy and noticed that my eyes are always red! Today marks my 5th day of using them. Is anyone else experiencing this? And if so, is it better that I stop?
Hey Jacklyne, so my eyes are actually always red as I have a chronic dry eye condition. I have heard about the red eye thing from one other person and the recommendation was to make sure she wasn’t applying too much. It could just be you have really sensitive eyes. All other people that I know who use it didn’t have this issue. I’m not a doctor though so if you’re concerned have it checked out!
Nice lashes! Did you experience any side effects? Can I get it at any drug store?
Hi Christine! I haven’t experienced any negative side effects. You can’t purchase this at a drugstore. Only approved salons. I bought mine from Beauty Room and I included a link above for locations where you can purchase!
Whoa whoa, Elaine! Your lashes look amazing! I assume though that once you stop using the product, you lashes will go back to the way they are naturally?
Thanks Cher! Yes if you stop using it your lashes will go back to how they were after about 2 – 3 months. Essentially just when the old ones fall out and new ones grow in.
holy crap, elaine! That’s AMAZING.
Right?!? You need to try it!
