Homemade Eyelash Growth Serum for Fuller Lashes

How to make a homemade DIY Eyelash Growth Serum using natural ingredients such as castor oil, coconut oil, vitamin E oil and essential oils to promote thicker, fuller lashes naturally.

Long, thick lashes are something we all dream about.

I have many friends who’ve gone to great lengths to get longer lashes, but what’s not realised is that many eyelash treatments, like eyelash extensions and pre-made growth serums, can cause infection, allergic reactions, or if overused, can actually weaken lashes and contribute to lash loss.

We have a lot of options when comes to eyelash growth or the appearance of long lashes:

  • Expensive eyelash extensions (which often require a lot of maintenance)
  • Fiddly fake lashes
  • Tricky eyelash curlers 
  • Eyelash growth serums with chemical ingredients

Instead, Make Your Own Lash Serum

In my experience, this natural eyelash serum is worth trying and it lasts for ages, as a little bit goes a long way (I just use a drop). However, if you have very sensitive eyes, feel free to stick with just straight castor oil.

It’s important to note that there is a connection between nutrition/diet and hair health. If the body isn’t receiving enough vitamin C, B vitamins, collagen, and fat soluble vitamins, hair may pay the price.

This natural eyelash growth serum uses:

  • Castor oil: Contains vitamin E, minerals, proteins, and omega-6 fatty acids, all promoting thicker, stronger, longer lash growth.
  • Vitamin E oil: Helps repair hair follicles and encourage hair growth.
  • Coconut oil: Like castor oil, coconut oil contains fatty acids, vitamins, and can penetrate deep into the hair shaft to help strengthen and promote hair growth for longer, fuller lashes.
  • Lavender oil: Known for nourishing and restoring hair.
  • Rosemary oil: Known to improve blood circulation, promoting hair growth.
  • Cedarwood oil: Known to improve blood circulation also, promoting hair growth.

Homemade Eyelash Growth Serum

This serum will last up to a year as long as it isn’t contaminated with water or other liquids. This serum can also be used on eyebrows to help with thinning.

Ingredients:

To make:

  1. Clean your mascara tube and brush well (it needs to be thoroughly cleaned to prevent contamination).
  2. Mix all the ingredients together, and store in a mascara bottle.
  3. Close the bottle and shake gently to combine.
  4. Use nightly by brushing onto lashes (eyebrows too for extra growth), taking care not to get it in your eyes. If you have sensitive eyes you can omit the essential oils. Use this serum daily for best results.

  1. Any tips on replacing vitamin E oil with something else, or how about frankincense?

    1. You can omit the vitamin E oil if you like, it’s more of an optional ingredient.
