Can vitamin E be used on eyelashes?

The love of beauty is human nature, and a pair of vivid eyelashes can add a lot of charm to women. It is precisely because of this that some beauty-loving women in real life have formed the habit of applying vitamin E on their eyelashes, hoping to grow long and beautiful eyelashes. There are still many ways to beautify eyelashes, so can vitamin E be applied to eyelashes? Does this method really help make women more beautiful?

Applying vitamin E is of no use for the growth of eyelashes. The fundamental reason for the growth of eyelashes is that there are stem cells in the germinal centers inside the hair shaft and hair follicles. These cells regulate the growth of hair.

The length of eyelashes is mainly determined by two factors. One is the length of the growth period, and the other is the growth rate. These two factors are mainly determined by genes. Applying vitamin E has no effect on the hair growth cycle, so it is impossible to make eyelashes longer. Not only applying vitamin E, but also Vaseline and overnight tea have no effect in making hair grow longer.

Vitamin E is a drug that is intended for oral administration. If you take the oral medication for external use, the preparation may not be suitable for topical use. For example, it may cause some irritation reactions and local discomfort, and it is possible that it may also irritate the conjunctiva of the eye.

Cutting eyelashes has no effect on the rate of hair growth. Because the part of the hair that grows out of the skin surface is made up of dead cells, cutting will not affect the hair follicles below, so it has no effect on its growth. The growth period of eyelashes is generally about 1 month, and its dormant period is about 3 to 5 months. The (cut) eyelashes will go through the dormant period and enter the next growth period and fall off. After the new eyelashes grow out, they will be as long as they were during the growth period, so its final length will not be affected.

How to make eyelashes longer with vitamin E

Tools/Raw Materials

A lip gloss pencil

A box of vitamin E (you can buy it at the pharmacy for a few dollars. Don't buy the red one, buy the yellow one)

An empty sealed small box, not too big

Methods/Steps

1. Use a fine needle to puncture the purchased vitamin E capsule and squeeze the solution inside the vitamin E into an empty box for easy daily use.

2. Clean your eyes before going to bed, use a lip gloss pen to apply a small amount of vitamin E, and apply it to the roots of your eyelashes (don’t use too much, otherwise it will get into your eyes and your vision will be blurred. But if it gets into your eyes, don’t worry, it’s harmless, just wash it off with clean water)

3. Wait until you wake up the next day and wash it off with clean water (don’t wash too hard, otherwise the original eyelashes will be washed off)

4. This requires perseverance to achieve the effect. Don't imagine that it has the magical effect of eyelash growth liquid. It is harmless. Eyelash growth liquid mostly has harmful effects, so persistence is victory.
