Chris' eyebrows are longer than mine too, its really odd!
I was just thinking earlier how I wish evolution had happened so that girls have hairless legs, they're such a pain, especially in summer.

yeh I shaved the other day and I missed a load of hairs, I went over the places while I was shaving but it didn't do anything! It's like they're too fine for the razor to cut. I'm gonna get a venus razor they work better, I actually don't bother shaving very often because I don't wear footless tights anymore, but its not been summer for a year so that's why, but because I left my old venus razor on the side of the bath it went all mouldy in the rubber bits on the handle!

keeping your eyelashes clean is the best way to let them look more longer
Vaseline helps them to grow better,but its really bad for your eyes.
When you still have make-up on your lashes and don't keep them clean, your lashes wil grow bad ore break.
just use a good black pigment volume mascara.

I had some really plain boring cheap wipes from Superdrug and they worked really well, but when they ran out there was an offer on more expensive ones in Botos so I thought I'd give them a try. Turns out I don't like them because they leave my face quite greasy, so now I'm stuck having to use up all these wipes I don't like.

Please stop before you hurt yourself.... and no, it doesn't actually lengthen your eyelashes, it just makes it stand up for about 3 minutes and darkens the lashes until you wash it off due to the oilyness of Vaseline

I've never tried vaseline but what i've tried is olive oil. So far it worked for me but you have to place it carefully on you lashes or else it might go to your eyes. And it hurts a bit when that happens, it feels like as if soap got into your eyes D:

i use vaseline all the time on my lips and eyes; before going to bed- i've done it ever since i was little and nothing bad has happened; it's kept my skin nice and soft!

also recently my mum read in a magazine that you can use it to remove eye make-up, which i have tried, and that really works as long as it's not a lot (ie just with mascara and eyeshadow, ive used it with.)

hope my experience helps anyone?!

Just to reiterate that last post- I had dry skin issues on my eyelids and my dermatologist recommended vaseline! It's much simpler and purer than all the chemicals they put into lash-building mascara: it's that kind of thing (not washed off properly) that creates problems.

IMO vaseline is - as a 'medical' product- probably safer than most things we put on our eyes. Having sniffed mascara and then vaseline you can tell which is the most full of rubbish and chemicals!! I worry about mascara much more and am careful to clean every bit off - mascara and eyeliner you really have to ensure it's not shared, isn't too old and is of a good brand.

BTW, baby oil is an excellent eye make up remover, much gentler than many you buy out there.
