Eyelashes are a very important part of the face. They enhance the beauty of the eyes. Long and thick lashes can make you look glamorous and mesmerising.

What would Hindi film songs be without them? So if the lashes begin to fall, you may feel sad. But you may try to stop the fall.

WHY LASHES FALL

1. Using make-up every day, expired products or inferior quality products.

2. Using eyelash-curlers can give a good lash lift, but if used always, can also lead to the lashes falling.

3. Sometimes we just rub or pull out our lashes unknowingly.

4. Not cleaning eyelashes properly after application of mascara.

5. Medication or stress.

PREVENTION

1. Aloe vera gel moisturises, hydrates and also nourishes eyelashes. Apply every night.

2. Castor oil helps to get lustrous hair. It helps with lashes too. Apply at night.

3. Apply room temperature green tea, which has antioxidants, with a cotton ball on the lashes. Keep it on for 30 minutes and wash it normal water.

4. Apply almond oil overnight.

P.S. Please be patient, as growth of eyelashes will take time.

If you have any allergy, dry eyes or any eye-related problem, consult a doctor first.
