Yet, there are ways to help stimulate your eyelash growth. Oils, staying clean, and even massaging your eyelids have all proven to help. Here's a list of tips to help support eyelash growth.

Comb Your Eyelashes

Adding this method to your routine will create more blood flow to your eyelashes, causing them to grow quicker. Speed the process up by thoroughly brushing your eyelashes for five minutes up to two times a day. Make it even better by adding some Vitamin E to the eyelash brush.

Here is a list of oils that can speed up eyelash growth:

  • Castor Oil
  • Olive Oil
  • Coconut Oil

You can spread these oils on your eyelashes with a finger or comb. They'll satiate hair follicles with nutrients.

Add Some Jelly

O.K.--don't use fruit jelly. Utilize the power of petroleum jelly. This substance will keep your eyelashes moist, and will actually feel quite soothing. The moisture will create a sustainable area for your eyelashes to grow quicker and healthier in a shorter time frame.

Nutritious Diet

When your body lacks the right vitamins and nutrients, you actually start losing hair. Because eyelashes don't really stop growing, you'll just shed them sooner and won't be able to grow them out. You should eat more nutritious foods, such as fruits, vegetables, and protein, to support eyelash growth.

Have Tea, But Not Just Any Tea

Green tea, to be exact, is used in a plethora of beauty and make-up items. Green tea is packed full of vitamins and antioxidants. If you put some green tea on your eyelashes (after it's cooled off, of course) up to twice a day, you could see more eyelash growth.

A Leaf Of What?

You can stimulate eyelash growth by harnessing the power of aloe vera. That's right--you can even combine it with the power of essential oils. If you can get your hands on an aloe vera leaf, you can pinch out some juice and combine it with oils. Rubbing it on your eyelashes will stimulate growth.

Ole' Fashioned Massage

That's right, before any of this fancy stuff came out, you could stimulate eyelash growth by simply massaging your eyelids for about five minutes. This improves circulation in the area and ensures nutrients are properly spread around.

Egg On Your Face

Eggs can make your hair stronger and less likely to fall out. They contain:

  • Biotin
  • B Vitamins

You can make an egg mask with eggs, glycerine, and petroleum jelly. Smear it on your face and watch your eyelashes grow.

Wash Your Face Routinely

It can be so tempting to just go to bed with all your makeup still on. However, your dirty face, once it comes into contact with your pillow, can make it especially difficult to stimulate growth. Washing your face every night will ensure your face isn't damaged with leftover makeup.

Too Much Makeup Is A Problem

Using makeup on a frequent basis can actually dry out your skin, making it difficult to grow hair. It's O.K. to take a break!! Try a break at least a couple times a week, and you'll notice your eyelashes are stronger and won't fall off. Be sure to watch the expiration date on your make up products too.
