The drug "Kareprost" is a very effective tool that is actively used in cosmetology to quickly stimulate eyelash growth. It is able to turn thin and rare eyelashes into thicker and darker - Careprost reviews confirm this.
The result after applying the product depends on how carefully the person followed the instructions. It is also important to apply the drug daily.
Who needs the drug
If nature has not presented you with attractive lush eyelashes that emphasize femininity and beauty of the face, then in our time it is quite possible to solve the problem. This can be done in just a few weeks if you use a drug called Careprost: reviews confirm that eyelashes and eyebrows begin to grow and tighten quickly.
The tool appeared thanks to modern developments in the field of medicine. To achieve a change in appearance for the better, it is necessary to apply a miracle cure to the eyelashes daily for a short time.
Structure
Reviews on Careprost for eyelash growth suggest that it is a truly effective remedy. But what is included in its composition? As the active substance, bimatoprost is used. The composition of the ophthalmic solution also includes other inactive ingredients, such as water, antiseptics and additives, which are necessary for long-term storage of the product.
History of occurrence
Reviews on Careprost, an eyelash growth tool, show that it has an amazing effect on hair follicles. But, oddly enough, it was originally used for other purposes.
Bimatoprost began to be actively used in medicine at the beginning of the last century. Since it is extremely difficult to synthesize a substance, Kareprost is a very expensive tool. The price for 1 g is about 1,700 US dollars.
In Western Europe and the USA, it is a medical tool that helps reduce intraocular pressure in glaucoma. During treatment with the drug, doctors recorded a side effect in their patients - active eyelash growth. Due to this property, the United States began to prescribe the drug to patients suffering from hypotrichosis (slow growth of hair on the human body).
Scientists still can not accurately demonstrate how the substances that make up the Careprost Bimatoprost Ophthalmic Solution affect the growth of eyelashes - reviews, however, prove that this is an effective tool. However, the principle of exposure to the hairline of active substances is understood by specialists. The drug improves blood circulation and metabolism in the cells of the body, which causes active hair growth.
In America, many cosmetic companies add the drug to their products (mascaras, conditioners for hair and eyelashes). Thanks to this supplement, buyers get a stunning effect - Careprost reviews for eyelashes confirm this. For the first time such an idea was realized in 2005 by the cosmetic company Jan Marini Skin Research.
When scientists first created the drug, which included bimatoprost, all rights to use it were transferred to Allergan. Such a tool for increasing the volume of eyelashes was called Latisse. After conducting a series of clinical studies, experts proved that the use of the new drug for several months will lead to an extension of eyelashes by an average of 25%, their volume will increase by 2 times, and the color will become noticeably darker.
The emergence of funds in Russia
Since a patent for Allergan is not registered in Russia, stores can quite legally sell its analogues. It is practically impossible to buy an original tool for eyelash growth from the USA in our country. But Russian beauties have access to a drug that is an exact copy of the American Allergan, Careprost for eyelashes. Reviews say that the tool does an excellent job of the task. And it costs much cheaper than the American counterpart.
As noted in the reviews, the tool "Kareprost" will forever forget about artificial eyelashes - false or extensions. After using the miraculous preparation, the eyelashes will become more powerful and voluminous, will acquire a spectacular dark color. In this case, the tool does not cause any discomfort in the eye area.
How to use the tool
Many women are wondering: how to use Careprost for eyelash growth. Reviews say that the drug should be applied to the eyelashes at night before bedtime. Before this, you should definitely wash off the makeup, and then wait until the moisturizers are completely absorbed, and the water droplets dry on the skin after washing.
Contact lenses should also be removed. Again, wearing them is allowed only 15 minutes after applying the solution to increase eyelashes.
The instructions for Careprost (reviews confirm this) say that for a more convenient application of the cosmetic solution in the package there is a special applicator. While holding it strictly in a horizontal position, apply one drop of the solution to it, and then immediately treat the eyelashes.
"Kareprost" can be applied only to the eyelashes of the upper eyelid - from the inner corner of the eye to the outer along the roots. Such an operation should be done very carefully, in one motion.
After applying the product, wipe off excess from the skin with a cotton pad. Even a small amount of the substance can lead to unwanted cannon hairs appearing on the skin of the face, which subsequently will be very difficult to get rid of.
"Kareprost" is strongly discouraged for eyelash enlargement on the lower eyelid, as long hairs in this area look ugly.
If the product got into your eyes, there is nothing to worry about. Reviews about Careprost confirm that the medicine does not harm the eyesight.
Experts recommend applying a tool to increase eyelashes no more than once a day. If you apply the solution more often, no additional effect will be obtained. If you forget to apply the product before bedtime, just skip one day of the procedure. Do not apply the solution in the morning. Continue the course as usual.
Applicators for drawing can be used only once. After use, it must be discarded. For each eyelid, you need to use only a sterile applicator: this will protect you from possible diseases of the eyes and face.
In order not to bring the infection into the eyes, before each use, make sure that the lid of the bottle and the brush for applying the product are clean. It is forbidden to touch their fingers.
The woman will be able to notice visible results a month later after daily use. The maximum length of the eyelashes is reached after three months of applying the solution. One bottle of 3 ml is enough to achieve the desired result.
After the bottle is empty, it should be allowed to rest for centuries and stop the procedure for several months. However, it should be remembered that a sharp pause after regular use of “Kareprost” will lead to the fact that within a month the eyelashes will return to their original nondescript appearance. To avoid such an unpleasant situation, you should gradually wean your hair from the drug. To begin with, you can apply the solution every other day, then take a break in two days. After this, you can completely stop the application.
The combination of the drug with cosmetics
During the use of the Kareprost solution, one can not be afraid to apply any cosmetics to the face. If desired, you can, as before, apply mascara to the eyelashes, although after a short period of time this will not be necessary: thanks to the miraculous means, the eyes will look spectacular even without cosmetics.
Side effects
As a rule, the use of a drug such as Careprost (reviews confirm this) does not cause serious side effects. However, experts sometimes recorded cases of allergic reactions, manifested in the form of itching and redness of the skin in the eye area. This indicates the individual intolerance of one or more components in the composition of the applied solution. If such trouble has overtaken you, you should stop using the drug.
The use of the drug, which contains bimatoprost, can lead to age spots on the face. This undesirable effect is reversible, just stop using the product to increase eyelashes in volume. After a few days, unpleasant dark spots will disappear from the skin forever.
If dirt gets into the preparation, then there is a danger of human infection with a bacterial infection. If after the procedure you feel discomfort during blinking, you should consult a doctor who can conduct a professional examination and make a diagnosis.
It is not recommended to apply the product on the eyelids of pregnant and breast-feeding women, as well as minor children. People undergoing cancer treatment should also not use the drug. All these limitations are due to the fact that “Kareprost" did not pass a clinical study on safety when used in the situations described above.
Since the main substance in the preparation for eyelash growth is bimatoprost, which is a medicine for lowering eye pressure, it is highly not recommended to use it in conjunction with other similar agents that affect pressure in the eyeball.
If you use "Kareprost" in accordance with the above precautions and recommendations for use, a significant effect on eye pressure is unlikely. However, you should inform your doctor about the use of the drug if you were referred to a procedure for measuring pressure in a medical institution.
Doctors reviews
Not all products that have gained popularity in the field of cosmetology are beloved by ophthalmologists. Here are the reviews about Careprost at various medical forums: both positive and negative. However, all experts unanimously declare that since in Russia there are a lot of fakes of the drug due to its increased popularity, women should buy such goods only in large stores.
Some doctors recommend this drug for eyelash growth, since the bimatoprost included in its composition has long been used in medicine. It has a minimum of side effects, so it can be used by almost everyone, except for pregnant and breast-feeding women, as well as children.
According to doctors' reviews of Careprost, its main drawback is the fact that one of the components in the composition is a drug. Use it with caution and only as directed by a professional doctor. Applying the drug to the eyes can cause a bacterial infection, though only if the instructions for use are not followed. It is extremely difficult to treat eyes from infection, the patient runs the risk of spoiling his eyesight if he does not turn to a specialist for medical help on time.
Reviews of professional cosmetologists
Beauticians largely agree with doctors' reviews about Careprost for eyelash growth. They also believe that the tool has a short-term effect.
Experienced specialists in the field of cosmetology say that if you use the product correctly, you can achieve the desired result in a short time. For the safest use, one should not only carefully listen to the recommendations of the manufacturer of the Kareprost preparation, but also make sure before the first use that the box contains a sterile disposable applicator. It should not be used twice even after treatment with disinfectants. Remember that the applicator can only be used to apply the product on one eyelid.
Wash your hands thoroughly before opening the package. If all precautions have been followed, you can be sure that there will be no harm to the eyes from the solution, and after some time the eyelashes will be lush and elongated.
However, there are cosmetologists who criticize the drug, because the eyelashes quickly lose their acquired properties if you stop using "Kareprost". The active substance that is part of the solution acts only on those hairs that grow exactly at the time of application. After some time, the extended eyelashes fall out, and the result after the procedures completely loses its strength. To maintain the effect, it is necessary to again apply an expensive tool on the eyelids.
The skeptical opinion of some doctors about the drug for active eyelash growth is quite simple to explain. "Kareprost" is not a medicine, besides it has a short-term effect. Many attending specialists are sure that it is not worth spending money on such a tool.
User reviews
Women in their reviews of Careprost mostly praise the drug, but at the same time give a number of tips to help achieve the best results. First, you must adhere to the schedule: do not forget to apply the solution once a day. This will help to increase eyelashes in a short time. Secondly, you need to keep the product in an accessible place, for example, where all cosmetic products for evening skin care are stored. Thus, you will not forget to use "Kareprost".
Also, women in their reviews recall that it is necessary to stock up on patience, since in the first days after applying the result there will definitely not be. Do not be zealous and apply more than the manufacturer recommends, because this can lead to eye irritation. In addition, an already not cheap tool will end faster.
To see how your eyelashes change, take a few photos of your eyes before applying Kareprost, and then photograph them again every 2-3 days. Comparing the pictures taken before and after a series of procedures, you can clearly see how your appearance is changing for the better.
However, many women in Careprost eyelash product reviews criticize the drug, calling it too expensive. It is much cheaper and more practical, in their opinion, to use mascara, which makes the eyelashes thick, dark, and besides, it also lengthens them a little.
Many ladies who used the tool believe that the use of "Kareprost" is associated with a huge risk of catching an eye infection.
