The end of the Talika experiment


The pictures speak for themselves

I'll say this though, as much as I liked the results and such (my eyelashes are definitely longer and the lashes at the ends are actually slightly curled)

This is a picture of my left eye but you can see how at the end, the tiny lashes are nicely curled.

My final thoughts on this is that while it was certainly nice, 55 dollars is a heavy price to pay for slightly longer lashes. As it is, I didn't notice any drastic side effects like eyelid skin darkening so if you were really looking for a Latisse substitute, this could be it.

As a college student though, I wouldn't recommend it. However, if you were older you might actually appreciate it more due to the fact that as you age, your eyelashes thin out thus it might be useful.

Talika Lipocils Expert Experiment: Day 19

I thought I'd just give an update on how well the Talika Lipocils Expert is working on my lashes.

Here's what my lashes looked like in the beginning.

Here's how they look on Day 19

As to some of their claims, I haven't noticed any real curling other than on the lashes at the very end, mostly the wispy ones. The length of my lashes is the biggest change I've seen thus far and pigmentation-wise it has stayed the same. My lashes certainly look a bit fuller too!

I'll say though, it's kind of a pain applying mascara on after putting on the Talika. I made the mistake of putting it on, waiting for it to dry and then subsequently trying to curl my lashes. You have to wait quite a bit after putting it on to curl your lashes otherwise they'll stay stubbornly straight.

I shall update you when I'm done using it for the suggested time!

Talika Lipocils Expert Experiment: Day 8

So far it seems like it's been working well but I do have some qualms about it. When I use it, it tends to make my lashes clump and therefore, it makes my lashes look clumpy with mascara. It is annoying considering that it says you can use it pre-mascara but I don't like how it looks.

Anyways, here's a picture of Day 0 just to remind you guys

Here's Day 8

There is a difference in length, there's a small freckle on the left side of the picture near the ends of my lashes that corresponds in both pictures. I have seen no real difference in my lashes' curls or in the pigmentation of my lashes, but they're dark anyways, I don't care.

I haven't noticed any sort of drying around my eyes so as far as the whole no side effect business, it's ringing true!
