Dreamy eyelashes: How to get thicker eyelashes that will impress

Flutter, flutter – who doesn't dream of thick, expressive lashes that make every glance a head-turner? But reality often looks quite different: sparse lashes that are barely noticeable even with three coats of mascara, or unsightly gaps that no lash curler can conceal. But don't worry – the path to a captivating gaze is no longer a mystery. In this article, you'll learn which methods truly work and which ingredients are crucial for making your lashes longer and thicker. We rely on natural, high-quality products – made in Germany and specially developed by Tru Cosmetics, the beauty-addicted brand that has been transforming its passion into unique cosmetics since 2017.

How to get thicker eyelashes: Basics and myths

A thick set of eyelashes is considered the epitome of attractive eyes and represents youthfulness, vitality, and expressiveness. To achieve thicker eyelashes, it's essential to first understand the natural growth cycle. Like head hair, eyelashes go through different phases: the growth phase (anagen phase), the transition phase (catagen phase), and the resting phase (telogen phase). The complete cycle lasts approximately 3-4 months, with the growth phase itself lasting only about 30-45 days – significantly shorter than for head hair.

Numerous myths about eyelash growth circulate online and among friends. Home remedies like petroleum jelly or castor oil are supposedly miraculous. The truth is: While these remedies can provide a temporary boost in shine and make eyelashes more supple, they have no scientifically proven effect on actual eyelash growth or density. Regular brushing also doesn't promote growth, but it can help detangle eyelashes and give them a healthier appearance.

The actual eyelash growth process is biologically controlled and depends significantly on the health of the hair follicles. This is where modern eyelash care products come in: High-quality ingredients such as peptides stimulate the hair roots and can extend the growth phase. Biotin strengthens the hair structure from within, while caffeine promotes blood circulation, thus ensuring better nutrient supply to the follicles.

Why conventional products often fail

Many commercially available eyelash products contain insufficient concentrations of effective ingredients or rely on inferior raw materials. Furthermore, they often lack the necessary formulation technology to actually deliver the active ingredients to the hair roots. The result: disappointing results despite regular use.

Tru Cosmetics has recognized this problem and relies on scientifically sound formulations with optimally dosed active ingredient complexes precisely tailored to the needs of eyelash follicles. The products are manufactured in Germany under strict quality controls and do not contain unnecessary fillers or questionable ingredients.

Eyelash Serum Strong: The boost for longer, fuller lashes

When it comes to visible results in eyelash thickening, the effective combination of active ingredients plays a crucial role. Tru Cosmetics' Lash Serum Strong was specially developed to optimize the natural growth cycle of eyelashes and ensure maximum density.

The science behind the formula

The key to its effectiveness lies in the innovative formulation with prostaglandin derivatives such as isopropyl cloprostenate. These active ingredients have the remarkable ability to extend the anagen phase (growth phase) of the eyelashes. This gives the eyelashes more time to grow before they enter the resting and shedding phase. The result: longer, stronger, and above all, thicker eyelashes.

The formula is complemented by a synergistic complex:

Biotin (Vitamin B7): Stimulates keratin production – the protein that hair is primarily made of. This not only makes eyelashes longer, but also structurally stronger and more resistant to breakage.
Hyaluronic acid: Known for its moisturizing properties, it intensively supplies the hair roots with moisture and makes them more resistant to external influences.
Ginseng extract: Rich in antioxidants, it protects hair follicles from oxidative stress and promotes microcirculation, leading to better nutrient supply.
Panthenol: Strengthens the hair structure and gives eyelashes extra volume and shine.

Use for optimal results

The application of Lash Serum Strong is extremely simple, but requires consistency for the best possible results:

Thoroughly cleanse your eye area of makeup and impurities.
Using the fine brush tip, apply the serum precisely along the upper lash line, where the lash roots are located, like a thin eyeliner.
Apply the serum in the evening before going to bed so that the active ingredients can work optimally overnight.
For maximum results, daily application for at least 8-12 weeks is recommended.

It is important to follow the safety instructions and apply the product exclusively along the lash line. Contact with the eye itself should be avoided. Initial visible improvements usually appear after 4-6 weeks of regular use, with full results achieved after approximately 12 weeks.

The right care routine for your amazing lashes

A targeted eyelash serum alone is not enough – what is crucial for thicker eyelashes is a consistent care routine that supports the entire growth cycle and protects the eyelashes from harmful influences.

Creating the optimal foundation

Start each evening by thoroughly cleansing the eye area of makeup, dirt, and mascara residue. Use a gentle, oil-free eye makeup remover that won't irritate the delicate skin around the eyes and leaves no residue. This ensures that the serum's active ingredients can optimally penetrate the hair follicles and aren't blocked by dirt particles or cosmetic residue.

Especially important: Avoid aggressively rubbing or pulling on your eyelashes when removing makeup. This mechanical stress can lead to premature eyelash loss and disrupt the natural growth cycle.

Choose the right serum for your needs

Tru Cosmetics offers two specialized formulations tailored to different needs:

Lash Serum Strong: The powerful formula with prostaglandin derivatives for maximum growth promotion and visible results. Ideal for anyone who wants noticeably thicker and longer lashes and doesn't have sensitive eyes.
Eyelash Serum Soft : The gentler version without prostaglandin derivatives, but with highly effective natural growth boosters such as peptides, biotin, and caffeine. It also contains soothing ingredients like aloe vera and panthenol, making it particularly suitable for sensitive eyes and contact lens wearers.

Both products are based on the principle of optimizing the natural growth cycle and supplying the hair follicles with all the necessary nutrients.

Consistency is key.

Apply the chosen serum morning and evening along the upper lash line, similar to a subtly drawn eyeliner. Regular application is crucial – interruptions in your routine can slow down progress. The more consistently you follow this routine, the faster you'll notice your lashes gaining in density and strength.

Please note that results may vary depending on your natural eyelash growth cycle and genetic factors. However, most users report seeing initial visible improvements after 4-6 weeks of regular use.

Tips and tricks for naturally attractive eyes

In addition to targeted care with high-quality serums, there are other effective strategies to naturally support your eyelashes and ensure maximum density.

Gentle handling of eyelash curlers

While eyelash curlers can create a more open look, they can damage your lashes if used incorrectly. Avoid harsh eyelash curlers with metal edges that can crush the hair structure. Instead, use high-quality curlers with silicone pads and warm them briefly with a hairdryer before use – this will make the curl gentler and last longer.

Important: Always use an eyelash curler before applying mascara, never after. Curling lashes that are already coated with mascara can cause breakage and permanent damage.

Proper Mascara Removal

The way you remove your mascara has a significant impact on the health of your eyelashes:

Use special eye makeup removers that are gentle but effective.
Soak a cotton pad with the remover and place it on the closed eye for 20-30 seconds to allow the mascara to soften.
Then gently wipe from root to tip, without rubbing or pulling.
For waterproof mascara, use oil-based removers specifically designed for this purpose.

This gentle method prevents eyelashes from being pulled out or broken when removing makeup.

Nutrition and dietary supplements

What you eat also affects the growth of your eyelashes. A balanced diet with these nutrients is particularly important:

Biotin (Vitamin B7): Found in eggs, nuts, oatmeal and whole grain products
Vitamin E: Rich in almonds, sunflower seeds and avocados
Omega-3 fatty acids: Found in fatty fish, flaxseeds and walnuts
Zinc: Found in oysters, beef, and pumpkin seeds
Iron: Rich in green leafy vegetables, legumes and red meat

If a nutrient deficiency is suspected, targeted nutritional supplementation may be useful, but should be discussed with a doctor.

Choosing the right product

With the right eyelash serum from Tru Cosmetics, you can take your eyelash care to a new level:

For maximum results: The Lash Serum Strong with its highly effective formula
For sensitive eyes: The gentler Eyelash Serum Soft with soothing ingredients
For holistic care: Combine the serum with a gentle eye makeup remover.

These products combine targeted stimulation of the hair roots with intensive care, thus creating the optimal basis for thicker, stronger eyelashes.
