Eye lash curlers can do it.Because they basicly PULL on the lashes and cuz them to fall out.Just like if you pulled the hair on your head everyday,eventually it would fall out.
Also,wearing waterproof mascara ALL THE TIME can do it too.

Hair thins as we get older and that includes eyelashes.

Is the problem severe? It could be a medical condidtion that can be treated. Have it checked out.

Mascara and eyelash curlers are not a good idea to use either.

Eyelash Begonia?

Close enough. Anything with bowerae in it is supposed to be "eyelash" begonia (little hairs along the edges) and this looks like it has a lot of bowerae in its lineage. There are a ton of hybrids with lots of names. 'Kit Kat' and 'Tiger Kitten' are two very popular ones. Yours reminds me of 'Chantilly Lace'. Here is a begonia I got that has the name of 'Dottie's Eyelashes'. It is medium sized leaves and has some "eyelashes" but don't see a lot of bowerae in it.

I use latisse. I get a prescription from my dermatologist. It works but it is dreadfully expensive. Maybe about $150 for 2 or 3 months supply. The other downside is you have to use it every single night and cannot skip it when you just want to fall into bed. At least I follow the directions to do this as I am scared to waste this much money and not follow directions. You can also use it on sparse eyebrows so after I apply to my lashes I take the still wet brush and mush it on my brows. Takes 5 or 6 weeks to see results. I wonder if there is a cheaper, faster way albeit safe for the eyes. I recently had a spontaneous, yes, non traumatic corneal gouge(abrasion), right in the central part of the cornea.

I am in total agreement! Like you, Sheilajoyce, I had done a lot of eyelash scarves, and had small amounts of yarn left. Tried using it as crocheted trim on hats, mitten cuffs etc - daughter's comment: it looks like multi-colored roadkill!! No, knitting is the way to go.

False Eyelashes

We saw a couple of episodes of The Catch. She has the worst false eyelashes I've ever seen. Her eyeliner is too thick, and it makes her eyes look far too heavy and black. She was in bed with her boyfriend, talking to him, and honestly, you couldn't see her eyes. Just black blobs on her face. I also don't like her lipstick, her lips look too dry and cracked to me. But the show is great, except that the background music is far too loud. This post wasn't meant to be a vent, just my observation, LOL

the curler definately puts strain on your lashes...and most of the lengthening, plumping, volumizing, and particularly the waterproof mascaras...well, would you use that stuff on your HAIR? really? on a daily basis?

keeping them curled and mascara'd, it's entirely possible that you've lost all perspective on what your 'natural' lashes looked like before you started the daily regimen of two coats of 'lash attack'.

the only way to know, really - is to go cold turkey. maybe for New Year's. maybe a lash 'tint' if you're particularly fair, but try it for a month, and you will do yourself two favors - you will give your lashes a chance to catch up with their growth cycle, and give YOU a chance to reaquaint yourself with what your eyes actually look like.

take before and after pictures - the camera has a much better memory than your naked eyes.
