Testing a formula that is equivalent to Latisse with the active ingredient bimatoprost (0.3 mg).

Sigh

So I started this journey around 5/31 (I think) and even though my lashes look good with mascara, I'm not seeing how careprost/ Latisse is going to replace eyelash extensions. I don't want to be a slave to eyeliner and mascara. Right now I'm around the 6 week mark, so there's plenty of time to go before 4 months... I guess we'll see! I'll update this post with pics sometime soon.

My first WTF moment has arrived

OK, so I noticed a pimple on my forehead and thought it was related to a new product I was using. I didn't try to target it or anything and today I took a closer look, and a hair was growing out of it!!! WTF????!!! Nothing like that has ever happened before, so I know it has to be related to careprost somehow. But how? The area where the hair appeared was far from my eyes. I can't picture how any excess fluid could have repeatedly ended up on my forehead! I'm just hoping this doesn't happen anywhere else! The area where the hair grew out has turned dark. More of these could ruin my face!

On edit: I wonder if it's related to when I first started latisse--I had put the formula on my eyebrows a few days then stopped because it was way too itchy. I stopped that very early on though.
