Elsewhere in the Olaplex LashBond formula is glycerin. This is another humectant – or sponge – that is found naturally in the skin and helps to maintain hydration and moisture. The stronger the connection between the bonds, the stronger the bond between the protein chains and thus the healthier the hair. In our experience – as you can read in our Olaplex LashBond review – it took just three weeks for us to see a noticeable difference. This ingredient helps repair the bonds in broken hair, it’s a temporary fix – as in the effect is lessened over the course of a couple of weeks unless it’s used regularly – and we’re not sure how this would be of benefit in the Olaplex LashBond.

A number of Olaplex patents explain that this ingredient works because the two ends of Bis-Aminopropyl Diglycol Dimaleate form bonds with the sulfurs in the hair to create an “artificial disulfide bridge”. Discover how patented OLAPLEX Bond Building Technology™ works at a molecular level to dramatically improve hair strength, repair damage and protect all hair types.LASHBOND is a clear, and lightweight serum that provides visible results, without side effects! It’s prostaglandin free, unlike leading lash serums. Prostaglandin is a hormone-like substance with side effects like eye irritation, skin discoloration, inflammation and sometimes, eye color change. One tube of LASHBOND includes 3 months of 2x daily use- months of results in a bottle. It’s eye-safe, ophthalmologist tested and non-irritating. Ophthalmologist tested, Olaplex Lashbond is a vegan and cruelty-free haircare product that contains no prostaglandins, parabens, phosphates or phthalates. This lash serum is suitable for all hair types. Key Benefits These images show the Before and after Olaplex LashBond serum results on our short lashes without makeup As we explain in our How we tested the Olaplex LashBond serum section above, we’ll be taking further photos at six weeks, and again at 10 weeks. This is to account for the natural growth cycle of eyelashes and to make sure our LashBond review is as accurate as possible. I also think it's worth a try for those who simply want longer lashes. Dr. Reed says lashes are not simply ornamental but that they serve an important function in protecting the eyes. So supporting their growth is valid in a way that goes even beyond aesthetic preferences. To help the process, she says, you can supplement your serum with a nutrient-rich diet and by testing for nutrient deficiencies.

All of these serums largely promise the same thing – to help your lashes grow longer and stronger – and many share the same ingredients.In just a short time, we’ve seen a huge improvement in eyelash strength during our Olaplex Lash Bond review. When we brush our fingers through our lashes, we can now feel them when before we couldn’t, unless our finger was as close to the lash line as possible. The lash serum also contains glycerin and panthenol – two other ingredients that hydrate the skin – as well as an antibacterial ingredient called Chlorphenesin. This fights off bacteria and fungus, which is especially important when it comes to products that go in and around the eye. OLAPLEX’s NEW Peptide Complex Technology is a proprietary blend of peptides and Red Clover Flower Extract to support the natural growth cycle and lash retention for the look of fuller, longer lashes. Our revolutionary Bond Building Technology supports the skin barrier at the lash line. Healthy skin supports a better environment for natural lash growth. The last in our formula innovation is a nourishing complex for lash hydration and nourishment. Hyaluronic Acid and Biotin promote healthy-looking, nourished lashes and reduce the feel and appearance of dry, brittle lashes.

Given that Olaplex has become renowned for helping the hair on your head grow stronger and healthier, it makes sense the brand would venture into targeting the hair elsewhere on our bodies.We should note that while you may assume any lash serum would create similar results, we’ve previously used the much cheaper Glow For It eyelash serum and didn’t see any improvement. Even after three months of use. We even bought an extra tube to make sure that we were giving the serum enough time to work in line with our eyelash cycle and we were left really disappointed. Olaplex claims its LashBond serum works so well because it contains a combination of “highly-effective” ingredients. These include: There isn’t anything in the Olaplex LashBond formula that jumps out as a potential problem. The majority of ingredients are already found in rival eyelash growth serums and Olaplex claims that the LashBond Building Serum is ophthalmologist tested. The only ingredient that isn’t found in other serums is Olaplex’s patented Bis-Aminopropyl Diglycol Dimaleate.

We’d suspect Olaplex’s LashBond to be one of the more effective ones, but we won’t know until we put it to the test. Short, stubby and sparse are the three words I would use to describe my eyelashes to you. It’s no wonder then, that I’ve spent hundreds of pounds on eyelash serums over the years to try and change that. My aim: to achieve lashes similar to those that my five-year-old nephew is naturally blessed with – why is this always the case?AB, DD8, DD11, IV, KW1 KW14, PA21 PA40, PH17, PH26, PH30, PH35, PH37,PH39, PH41, PH49, PH50, KW15, KW16, KW17, ZE, HS, PA20, PA41, PA49, PA60, PA75, PA77, PA78, KA27, KA28, PH42, PH44, IV40 OLAPLEX BOND BUILDING TECHNOLOGY™ - Supports the skin barrier at the lash line.
