An eyelash is one of the hairs that grow at the edge of the eyelid.
They protect the eye from debris and perform some protective functions, for example when a foreign object touches an eyelash the eye closes instinctively.
So, they are not only beautiful but useful.
Naturally beautiful eyes are the center of the face and grab the most attention.
Nothing can be compared to a deep and yet sexy look from under a long and beautiful eyelash and that is why the first enhancers can be traced back to the Bronze Age.
If we look a bit back we will see that long eyelashes were considered a sign of femininity in many cultures.
In most of them women have enhanced their lashes since ancient times, while in some they trimmed them.
The first people in the eyelash industry (and in most of the cosmetics) were Egyptians.
They used kohl to protect and enhance lashes, which was very useful in Egypt with all its sand, dust and insects.
Then the eyelash enhancement had its dark ages and came back only in the sixties and eventually made a second coming as permanent tints and extensions.
Third coming was done with transplants which are similar in nature to hair transplantation which are often done on the head.
The hair for transplantation is usually taken from the head, so it will continue growing after and will require regular trimming (just imagine such hair in a week without scissors).
In addition to this, starting from the nineties, eyelash conditioners were introduced and became popular.
Many of them utilize seed extract, minerals, and other chemicals to achieve these results and are designed to increase the health and length of your lashes.
2009 was the year everything changed and the first drug to receive FDA approval for eyelash growth was introduced.
It was working and had an immense effect on the world of eyelashes.
Today we truly see them everywhere.
I mean turn on any music channel and take a look at the first ones in the "top of the pops".
Everyone basically, everyone (not just the girls, the guys also) seems to get the best out of their eyelashes Well the future might look bright, we still have genetics and as soon as we get to choose the color of our hair eyes and skin, eyelashes will also get more attention as a customizable part of the face.
Imagine selecting the length and color of your future eyelash and eventually get them perfect and natural looking.
That will be something! But we still live today and a modern world calls for modern solutions and finding an eyelash enhancer that works for you may be the best goal for a girl that really pays attention to details.
