Most dream to have longer, thicker eyelashes and with lashings of mascara, extensions and false eyelashes this can be achieved.
Alas, it doesn’t always result in a natural look!
If you prefer your eyelashes to be more natural and healthy looking, one option to try is the eyelash growth serum. This isn’t a quick fix hence you would have to start applying the serum daily at least 8 weeks ahead for a winning flutter at the races.
There are many eyelash growth serums on the market, so we’ve decided to introduce you to a few new arrivals to the beauty race.
Specialising in hair loss for both men and women, Scandinavian Biolabs has branched out and released the Bio-Pilixin® Eyelash Serum (£30 / 5ml).
Powered by stem cell technology and using a jade roller applicator, it is designed to nourish, soothe, strengthen and protect the lashes from the root. The jade roller delivers the serum directly to the lash follicles for optimal absorption and the rolling motion helps stimulate blood flow to promote growth. Jade is naturally cool which can soothe and refresh the eyes and help reduce puffiness.
This 100% vegan formula has the following natural active ingredients:
Capilia Longa® – rich in plant growth factors, it helps to reactivate growth in dormant hair follicles, while providing nourishment for optimal lash growth.
Biotin – a natural conditioning agent helping to maintain hair shaft hydration, reduce breakage, extend the life of hair fibres and support healthy lash regrowth.
Amino Acid Blend – a unique blend of amino acids (the building blocks of protein and keratin) helps support strength and durability, promoting fuller, more resilient lashes.
New from skinChemists is their Advanced Lash Intensive £89.
Advanced Lash Intensive is designed to nourish and strengthen the lashes, promoting a fuller, thicker, and healthier appearance. The formula works to address the root causes of lash thinning and breakage. It aims to help sparse or thin lashes, short or brittle lashes and lashes damaged by extensions or harsh makeup.
Key Ingredients are:
Aqua (Water) – the base of the formula, ensuring smooth application and absorption.
Panthenol (Pro-Vitamin B5) – a powerful humectant that moisturises and conditions the lashes, making them softer, more flexible, and less prone to breakage.
Acetyl Tetrapeptide-3 & Trifolium Pratense (Clover) Flower Extract (Capixyl™) – this unique complex is clinically proven to stimulate lash growth, leading to longer, thicker, and stronger lashes over time.
And for those who forget to apply the serum, skinChemists has also developed a mascara which helps to regrow the lashes – Advanced 4 in 1 Volumising and Conditioning Mascara £89.
The Instant 4-in-1 Lash Repair & Regrowth Mascara does more than just coat your lashes, it aims to volumise, lengthen, curl and condition for a wide-eyed look that lasts all day. Combining a deep lash conditioning treatment into the mascara works to improve the overall health and appearance of the lashes with continued use.
Key ingredients are:
Sodium Hyaluronate (Hyaluronic Acid) – to plump and condition the lashes making them appear thicker and fuller.
Panthenol (Provitamin B5) – to strengthen and nourish the lashes, improving their flexibility and resilience.
Acetyl Hexapeptide-8 (Argireline) – to help promote eyelash growth.
Acetyl Octapeptide-3 & Pentapeptide-18 – to support lash health and growth leading to stronger and longer lashes over time.

UKLASH, renowned for its multi-award-winning serums, launched its latest serum in June: the Complex Peptide Serum £42 which contains more peptides (six) than any other lash serum on the market:
Pea Peptides – stimulates growth from the root. It’s rich in amino acids, which help to strengthen and hydrate the lashes, making them healthier, fuller and more resilient.
Palmitoyl Oligopeptide – a strengthening peptide complex that increases collagen and elastin production, helping to maintain the lashes’ elasticity and firmness.
Hexapeptide-8 – helps to rejuvenate, strengthen and condition the hair follicles resulting in healthier and fuller-looking lashes.
Copper Tripeptide-1 – stimulates the synthesis of collagen and elastin in the hair follicle, promoting firmer and healthier lashes.
Palmitoyl Tetrapeptide-7 – an amino-acid peptide that works as an anti-inflammatory at the hair’s root, creating the perfect environment for optimum lash growth.
Dipeptide Diaminobutyroyl Benzylamide Diacetate – a peptide that infiltrates the hair follicle to strengthen and reduce muscle tension at the root, minimising the effects of lash loss by encouraging hairs to remain attached for longer.
This vegan-friendly and cruelty-free recipe is derived from 99% natural and 22% organic ingredients.
Price £35.70.
