Thinning eyelashes

Along with my thinning hair I also have depleting eyelashes which is really depressing as they have always been long and full. I thought I'd post as today I used a new mascara system from Beauchique Cosmetics on Amazon and it's amazing. Its a 3d fibre lash mascara. It's filled the gaps with the fibre you use and looks completely natural. Much thicker and longer lashes again. Also I was fencing in the rain and at the end of the day there was no flaking or smudging which for me was amazing as I normally look like a panda within a couple of hours! If anyone else has this predicament I would highly recommend although watch out for cheap knockoffs.

It should be around £16

That sounds good. Does it remove easily at bedtime?

Isn't that what pillow cases are for, Shaws? ;)

I've bought waterproof mascara. I use a special remover I still wake with 'panda' eyes. Obviously not 'special' enough.

They are hard to get off too! This after hours of fencing in the rain hadn't flaked or smudged, it's like a miracle! haha

Thanks for that - really useful info. Have you found anything you would recommend for thinning hair or eyebrows?

check the thyroid profile including reverse t3.

hypothyroidism causes thinning off the lateral eyebrows.

I was meaning like a cosmetic / beauty product(s). Already know I'm hypothyroid, lol!

No sadly not although flax and linseed are good for hair. I'll look into it there surely must be something. Glad to have found this mascara though as it's doing a good job of disguising it.

I hate this hypothyroidism lark!

Yeah, me too! Just ordered the mascara from Amazon. All the reviews on there look really good too!

apparently they don't sell that brand in the US..thanks tho.

I will use it temporarily. putting the hashi's into remission and getting inflammation down, should get them back to normal.

I just did a quick Google check....you're right, no Beauchique being sold in the U.S., but check out Younique on Amazon. It looks like it might be a good match for Beauchique. Even the case looks similar, as well as the ingredients. Good enough for me - I'm trying it! :-)

Thanks :)

Think I'm now a concert to Beauchique though. It's been a miracle! Thicker eyelashes,no smudging and easy to get off. My eyelashes are so sensitive now with this blasted hypo that they come out when removing waterproof mascara.

Ill give it a go when hopefully have symptoms under control!

Thyroid meds usually won't help all of these problems. Its about having autoimmune disease and i am working to put mine into remission.

my eyelashes come out too. i stopped wearing all makeup years ago and don't leave the house much. i wish it was my only symptom..i could live with that.

Katepots in reply to faith63

Me too. They are part of a very long list. It's a horrid disease, nothing seems so function properly. I feel exhausted with it all as I'm sure we all do.

I try to think of others worse off but sometimes it's not easy is it?!

I am very ill and have applied for disability recently. It doesn't help to think of others worse off. Actually, i have seen people with Cancer, go through Chemo and bone marrow transplants and get well, and i am still ill, they are now fine.

I signed up for Dr. Isabella wentz's emails on functional medicine and am now working with a doctor, to help me put this disease into remission. been pretty much swollen and homebound since 2009..

Blimey poor you. It's disgraceful that more isn't done for us. You sound in a bad way I'm so sorry.

I hope you get in to remission soon.
