Prostaglandin analogues are synthetic substances that mimic the natural prostaglandins in the body. They were originally used in the medical world, particularly in eye drops for glaucoma. While using these, users discovered an interesting side effect: their eyelashes grew longer and fuller. This led to the development of eyelash serums containing these ingredients to specifically stimulate eyelash growth.

The effect of eyelash serum with prostaglandin is based on prolonging the growth phase (anagen phase) of the eyelashes. Normally, eyelashes grow for a certain period of time before they fall out and make way for new hairs. Prostaglandin analogues prolong this growth phase, causing the eyelashes to grow for longer before they fall out. This results in longer, fuller and stronger eyelashes. They also stimulate the hair follicles and make the eyelash hairs darker, which can provide extra volume and density.

A frequently asked question is whether an eyelash serum with prostaglandin is safe. In general, these serums are safe when used correctly. They have been dermatologically and ophthalmologically tested, which means that they are suitable for the sensitive skin around the eyes. Possible side effects, such as slight redness or irritation, are usually temporary and disappear as soon as use is discontinued. It is important to follow the instructions for use and not to apply the serum excessively.

Some people experience slight redness, dryness or tingling, usually with overuse or sensitivity. These reactions usually disappear on their own when use is discontinued.Therefore, always follow the instructions for use: one thin line along the upper lash line is sufficient. Here, 1 dip is enough for both eyes.

Be careful in the following situations:

• If you have very sensitive eyes or allergies.
• If you already use eye drops containing prostaglandin.
• During pregnancy or breastfeeding, as a precaution.

• Fast and visible results: The first effects are noticeable within 4 to 8 weeks.
• Longer growth phase: lashes are given more time to grow before they fall out.
• Thicker and fuller appearance: more hairs can remain in the growth phase at the same time and they are made darker.
• Easy to use: applying only once a day to the lash line is sufficient.

For people who prefer to use an alternative, there are also prostaglandin-free eyelash serums. These often contain peptides, biotin and botanical extracts that nourish and strengthen the eyelashes. Although these serums are less powerful than prostaglandin analogues, they can still contribute to healthier and fuller eyelash growth.

Incorrect. Prostaglandin analogues are not hormones, but synthetic compounds that resemble the body's own fatty acids. They mimic a local signaling mechanism but do not affect hormonal balance. There is no scientific evidence that cosmetic serums containing prostaglandin analogues have a systemic hormonal effect.

An understandable concern, but not based on fact. Cosmetic eyelash serums are applied locally along the lash line, not ingested or dripped into the eye as in medicinal applications. As a result, the active ingredient remains superficial and locally active. There is no indication that this application affects estrogen, progesterone or other hormonal systems.

This effect has only been observed with medical eye drops containing high concentrations of bimatoprost, applied daily to the eye. Cosmetic serums contain considerably lower doses and are not brought into direct contact with the iris. The risk of discoloration is thus practically eliminated.

Incorrect. When you stop using them, your lashes return to their natural growth cycle, with no lasting changes.

In short: prostaglandin analogues are safe AND effective, if applied as intended.
