Is SmartLash a Smart Buy?
Time will tell...I purchased this product at the urging of my sister Loren. She insists it looks like she has "mink muffs" on her eyelids, after just one faithful month of using IQ Derma's SmartLash. Do ya think I needed much prodding after that comment?
I have three Lash Enhancers, all in a semi-state of use. My lashes look "fine". I highly doubt any product will ever give me the full on lush lash love that I experienced after my full Latisse trial...truly, they were magnificent.
The down side was twofold: 1) I felt like I had ground glass in my corneas everyday and 2) in my heart, I knew I couldn't continue to use an off-label glaucoma drug for the rest of my life to maintain them. Oh well...
I've seen SmartLash on the Internet at a whopping range of price points. I also read reviews from users who thought it was both, "incredible" and "a complete waste of money". Naturally I'm hoping I will inherit my sister's results.
I am a Dermstore.com fan. They offer great customer service and many perks to frequent buyers. They also lavishly sample, so every new purchase will come with a generous free surprise. They were offering a special to try SmartLash for $29.99 (it retails on Amazon for $100) and the option to have the product automatically renewed at this price at either 30 or 60 day intervals. I opted in to the 60 day option, knowing I would either have satisfactory results in that span or the ability to cancel.
Is SmartLash as a smart buy? I haven't a clue...but I will keep you posted and I will update you next month on Valentine's Day.
Fingers crossed...

I hope it works! :)
ReplyDeleteI was a Dermstore fan too, but not anymore. Since the day they decide to increase their international shipping cost, which is now US$80.
Not fair. And not honest in my opinion.
After over a month of use, I quickly went back to Latisse.....the only difference I noticed was that my lashes were going back to my pre-Latisse days.
ReplyDeleteWow Renata!
ReplyDeleteThat is INSANE!!! I hope there are more reasonable alternatives out there for you.
Latisse is the gold standard, no doubt! You are lucky you can tolerate it Camacama. It was soooo irritating for me. Hoping for the best!
ReplyDeleteYes, there are! (their loss)
ReplyDeleteI just think it's fair that everybody knows about their insanity ;)
