I really can't complain in the lash department, as I've got a decent amount. But who wouldn't want just a wee bit more? Talika sent me the Lipocils Expert for review some time ago and I've officially been using it for one month now, though it says results in 28 days. ;)

I apologize for blurry day 1 pictures, I didn't know how to use the setting on my camera for close ups.  Lipocils claims this will condition, repigment, and curl lashes. I can honestly say it's done just about everything is claims!! My lashes are softer thanks to the conditioning properties of this product. My lashes are a bit darker, though not much as they are dark already.**If your lashes are blonde I think this would be much more apparent for you**  As far as curling my lashes, they had a nice curl on their own before, so I can't really speak on that.

Now...on their site it does say "if you just dream of longer, shinier, sexier looking lashes, Lipocils Expert is your answer…. without side effects." Are my lashes longer? I think perhaps they might be! It's hard to tell since I had such horrid day one photos---so sorry!! But I think since the Lipocils has been such a great conditioner, it's made my lashes much healthier and has allowed them to grow to their natural potential. Wearing water proof mascara most days is really drying to my lashes and I noticed when removing it, I would loose a lash, sometimes two. I've lost only one or two lashes in the last month altogether!!

I'm calling this a success!! I will keep using this for sure! Of course there are two things that I am not crazy for with this product, so let's talk about that. Here's the applicator:

I certainly appreciate the felt tip to apply the gel at the roots of my lashes, but it makes it really difficult to get to the lashes closest to my nose! I ended up using a spooli of my own to get to those parts--on the days I actually had time to do that.  The other thing that I am not super excited about it the price, $55!! Now, this tube will last you a long time I'm sure...but like mascara, don't you need to discard it after 3 months? I'm not sure I want to spend over $200 a year on my eyelashes alone. I suppose if I had fewer, lighter lashes I would consider it because the benefits are there. What do you guys think?

**UPDATE: The lovely Sue at Talkia sent me some very helpful information and I wanted to share it with you!**

"This tube is a 2 month supply so it’s $27.50 per month if you want to break it down. It can last longer if you are using it for maintenance. The tube is still good for 1 year (opened).  For maintenance you can use 3 times per week once per day."
