Hi All
I bought the false eyelashes, the smallest pair that they had......I tried to put them on and I think you have to be a rocket scientist to be able to get them on straight. I looked like a sickly caterpiller died on my eyelids!! I guess I was meant to go through this lash-less. Anyone else have better luck with them?
Hugs:)

Bernadette, I did not use false eyelashes. My onc advised me not to do so because of eye infections. I am glad I did not because I am had a lot of styes during treatment and that could have really caused infection problems. I bought a liquid eyeliner and a much lighter eyebrow pencil for my brows. When I lost all brows, I got a brow stencil from Sally's Beauty Supply. It helped. I was without lashes and brows for approx 4 months. Now they are going again, but I decided today that I would look at this positively. Chemo kills rapidly dividing cells - i.e. cancer and hair. I have convinced myself today that somewhere in my body the chemo is still working after 4 1/2 months and is still searching out bad cancer cells. Go, guys, go!!!!!
Lots of love and good luck

Thanks for the advice on the eye treatments I will have to try those out. I looked for some liquid eyeliner and could not find any. I will have to look again. That is a good way to look at the hair loss that the chemo is still doing its job, I jst hate to see you go through it again. I have had lots of styes too I figured it was because of my lashes falling out.

Bernadette, it is because the follicules are clogged. You should try to massage them with your ring finger -- lower and upper with a rolling motion. This is supposed to keep them unclogged. As for liquid eye liner, I use Estee Lauder makeup most of the time, but any liquid liner, except for black which is too harsh, will do.
