Begin by massaging the brush at the roots of your lashes and zig zag up to the tips to achieve maximum volume and definition. Third, in-vitro studies show that after ascorbyl glucoside is absorbed into the skin it is converted to pure vitamin C (though the rate of conversion is still a question mark).

This No7 Lash Impact Lash Serum with its unique blend of ingredients gives visibly fuller, thicker and darker looking lashes in just 8 weeks (as tested by consumers.

As for proof, the manufacturer did some in-vitro (made in test tubes) studies that show that our molecule can promote hair bulb keratinocyte proliferation and also helps optimal hair anchorage by stimulating the synthesis and organization of the adhesion molecules laminin 5 and collagen IV. It also exibits questionable behaviour in the presence of UV light and was the center of a debate between the non-profit group, EWG (whose intentions are no doubt good, but its credibility is often questioned by scientists) and a group of scientists and dermatologists lead by Steven Q.

Anyway, one ‘dip’ will suffice for both eyes; as with mascara, (and this could just be me being a bit ‘funny’ with eyes and bacteria) but I wouldn’t pump the wand in and out and get air into it, as I said, just dip the wand in once, it’s plenty.

INCI is a list of the standardized and internationally accepted names used in the declaration of ingredients on cosmetic and personal care products. The manufacturer also did another 60 people anti-wrinkle study with 4% Tego Pep 4-17 (compared to vehicle) where they have some nice before and after pictures showing visible-to-the-naked-eye wrinkle reduction around the eye area.

Btw, Xanthan gum is all natural, a chain of sugar molecules (polysaccharide) produced from individual sugar molecules ( glucose and sucrose) via fermentation.

A non-essential amino acid (the building blocks of skin proteins, like collagen or elastin), that the body can produce itself, but its production decreases with age. Tretinoin, aka retinoic acid, is the active ingredient our skin cells can understand and retinyl palmitate (RP) has to be converted by our metabolic machinery to actually do something.
