Eyelash Care: Scientific Methods for Strong and Long Eyelashes
Understand the Eyelash Growth Cycle
Eyelashes, like hair, have a growth cycle consisting of specific phases. Understanding this cycle is a critical step in making eyelash care more effective.
Stages of the Eyelash Growth Cycle
- Anagen (Growth): This is the period when the eyelash actively grows.
- Catagen (Transition): This is the short phase when growth stops.
- Telogen (Resting): This is the period when the eyelash enters a resting phase before shedding.
The eyelash growth cycle typically lasts between 4 and 11 months. It is natural for eyelashes to shed after the telogen phase. However, if you experience excessive shedding, noticeable thinning, or breakage, you may need to review your care habits.
Be Gentle and Conscious When Cleaning Your Eyelashes
Daily cleansing plays an important role in maintaining eyelash health. Waterproof makeup products in particular can leave residue on the eyelash surface, which can negatively affect follicle health.
- Gently massage the base of the eyelashes with a light cleanser.
- Rinse with cold or warm water.
- Avoid harsh scrubbing motions and pulling on the eyelashes.
Active Ingredients Supporting Eyelash Health
Some active ingredients, supported by scientific research, contribute to healthy eyelash growth and thickening. Here are the most effective ingredients:
Nutritional Components and Their Effects
- Prostaglandin Analogs: Extend the anagen phase and support new eyelash growth. Thicken eyelashes and increase melanin production, making them appear darker.
- Biotin: Supports follicle health, increases keratin production, helping to strengthen eyelashes and reduce breakage.
- Panthenol: Hydrates eyelashes, keeps skin elastic, and supports the anagen phase.
- Amino Acid Complexes: Supports collagen synthesis, increases blood circulation in hair follicles.
- Hyaluronic Acid: Has a high water retention capacity; moisturises and revitalises the lash roots and provides protection against environmental stress.
- Hydrolysed Glycosaminoglycans: Supports cellular proliferation and balances the lash cycle.

Scientifically Supported Eyelash Care
Studies show that prostaglandin analogues such as bimatoprost are effective in promoting eyelash growth, thickening and darkening.
Results of a 16-Week Clinical Study
- Eyelash thickness: 106% increase
- Eyelash length: 25% increase
- Eyelash darkness: 18% increase
These results demonstrate the value of effective and scientifically proven eyelash care with regular use.
