episode 694: Is Our Obsession With Eyelashes Dangerous?


For millennia we have been obsessed with enhancing our natural eyelashes, whether using kohl to make them appear darker, or removing them altogether, but why do eyelash trends come and go and who decides what's fashionable at the time?

And there are an abundance of products on the market to make them look longer, thicker, a different colour, but are mascaras, extensions and serums bad for our eye health?

To find out everything you ever wanted to know about eyelashes, The Quicky speaks to Mamamia's in-house beauty expert, and an eye doctor to discuss the perfect way to not only make your lashes look fabulous, but also ensure your eyes are protected for life.
