What Is an Eyelash Growth Serum?
Even though there are many different types of eyelash growth serums available on the market, most are intended to promote the growth and thickness of eyelash hairs, Quynh-Giao Sartor, MD, a board-certified dermatologist at Westlake Dermatology in Houston, Texas, told Verywell in an email. These serums are generally available in a liquid or gel solution formula and can be applied to the base of the eyelash hairs, similar to how one would apply eyeliner.
Eyelash serums may contain vitamins E and C, biotin, and growth peptides, which function mainly to nourish the hair and can promote healthier-looking lashes, Sartor said.
