If you know that you are allergic to any of the ingredients in RevitaLash®, or if you suspect that you may be allergic to any of the ingredients, do NOT use RevitaLash®. If you suspect that you may have had or are having an allergic reaction, stop using the product and consult a physician immediately.

Some RevitaLash® users have reported a mild irritation at the base of the eyelashes. If you experience such irritation, either reduce or discontinue the use of RevitaLash® Eyelash Conditioner until the irritation goes away. If the irritation persists, discontinue use completely and consult your physician.

However, as a precaution, if you have concerns, we advise you to consult with your physician or ophthalmologist.

Therefore, as a precaution, we recommend that you consult with your physician before using RevitaLash® if you are undergoing chemotherapy.
If Revitalash® Gets Into Your Eye

Because RevitaLash® is used around the eyes, we have taken care to formulate our product with ingredients that have excellent safety profiles. In addition, our tests have shown that, when used as directed, RevitaLash® does not get into the eyes and, therefore, should not have a physiological effect on your eyes.

If a small quantity of RevitaLash® accidentally gets into your eye, it will usually be washed away by your tear film; however, if you are concerned or experience any irritation, we recommend that you lightly splash a little tap water in the eye in order to dilute and rinse away the RevitaLash®.

As a helpful reminder, we recommend that you be careful not to over-saturate the RevitaLash® application brush. Remember that you only need to apply a small quantity of RevitaLash® daily to enhance the beauty of your natural eyelashes.

YES! My Japanese Style Lash Perm works great for those who are using lash enhancing products. The perming products I use are gentle on the lashes. Lash growing products strengthen and grow lashes combined with the perm lashes look naturally curled, long and full. Many of my clients who use lash growing products don’t even have to use mascara!

I have included in this article the “What you should know about each lash growing product.” So you can make an educated decision on whether to use them and which product is right for you. Please look over each company’s product information that was available.

“PATIENT INFORMATION LATISSE® (la teece) (bimatoprost ophthalmic solution) 0.03%”

Read the Patient Information that comes with LATISSE® before you start using it and each time you get a refill. There may be new information. This leaflet does not take the place of talking with your physician about your treatment.

What is hypotrichosis of the eyelashes?
Hypotrichosis is another name for having inadequate or not enough eyelashes.

What is LATISSE® solution?
LATISSE® solution is a prescription treatment for hypotrichosis used to grow eyelashes, making them longer,
thicker and darker.

Who should NOT take LATISSE®?
Do not use LATISSE® solution if you are allergic to one of its ingredients.

Are there any special warnings associated with LATISSE® use?
LATISSE® solution is intended for use on the skin of the upper eyelid margins at the base of the eyelashes.
DO NOT APPLY to the lower eyelid. If you are using LUMIGAN® or other products in the same class for elevated intraocular pressure (IOP), or if you have a history of abnormal IOP, you should only use LATISSE® under the close supervision of your physician.
LATISSE® use may cause darkening of the eyelid skin which may be reversible. LATISSE® use may also cause increased brown pigmentation of the colored part of the eye which is likely to be permanent.
It is possible for hair growth to occur in other areas of your skin that LATISSE® frequently touches. Any excess solution outside the upper eyelid margin should be blotted with a tissue or other absorbent material to reduce the chance of this from happening. It is also possible for a difference in eyelash length, thickness, fullness, pigmentation, number of eyelash hairs, and/or direction of eyelash growth to occur between eyes.
These differences, should they occur, will usually go away if you stop using LATISSE®.

Who should I tell that I am using LATISSE®?
You should tell your physician you are using LATISSE® especially if you have a history of eye pressure problems.
You should also tell anyone conducting an eye pressure screening that you are using LATISSE®.

What should I do if I get LATISSE® in my eye?
LATISSE® solution is an ophthalmic drug product. LATISSE® is not expected to cause harm if it gets into the eye proper. Do not attempt to rinse your eye in this situation.

What are the possible side effects of LATISSE®?
The most common side effects after using LATISSE® solution are an itching sensation in the eyes and/or eye redness. This was reported in approximately 4% of patients. LATISSE® solution may cause other less common side effects which typically occur on the skin close to where LATISSE® is applied, or in the eyes. These include skin darkening, eye irritation, dryness of the eyes, and redness of the eyelids.
If you develop a new ocular condition (e.g., trauma or infection), experience a sudden decrease in visual acuity, have ocular surgery, or develop any ocular reactions, particularly conjunctivitis and eyelid reactions, you should immediately seek your physician’s advice concerning the continued use of LATISSE® solution.

What happens if I stop using LATISSE®?
If you stop using LATISSE®, your eyelashes are expected to return to their previous appearance over several weeks to months.
Any eyelid skin darkening is expected to reverse after several weeks to months.
Any darkening of the colored part of the eye known as the iris is NOT expected to reverse and is likely permanent.

How do I use LATISSE®?
LATISSE® solution is packaged as a 3 mL bottle of solution with 60 accompanying sterile, disposable applicators. The recommended dosage is one application nightly to the skin of the upper eyelid margin at the base of the eyelashes only.
Once nightly, start by ensuring your face is clean, makeup and contact lenses are removed. Remove an applicator from its tray. Then, holding the sterile applicator horizontally, place one drop of LATISSE® on the area of the applicator closest to the tip but not on the tip (see Illustration 1). Then immediately draw the applicator carefully across the skin of the upper eyelid margin at the base of the eyelashes (where the eyelashes
meet the skin) going from the inner part of your lash line to the outer part (see Illustration 2). Blot any excess solution beyond the eyelid margin. Dispose of the applicator after one use.
Repeat for the opposite upper eyelid margin using a new sterile applicator. This helps minimize any potential for contamination from one eyelid to another.

DO NOT APPLY in your eye or to the lower lid. ONLY use the sterile applicators supplied with LATISSE® to apply the product. If you miss a dose, don’t try to “catch up.” Just apply LATISSE® solution the next evening. Fifty percent of patients treated with LATISSE® in a clinical study saw significant improvement by 2 months after starting treatment.
If any LATISSE® solution gets into the eye proper, it is not expected to cause harm. The eye should not be rinsed.
Don’t allow the tip of the bottle or applicator to contact surrounding structures, fingers, or any other unintended surface in order to avoid contamination by common bacteria known to cause infections.
Contact lenses should be removed prior to application of LATISSE® and may be reinserted 15 minutes following its administration.
Use of LATISSE® more than once a day will not increase the growth of eyelashes more than use once a day.
Store LATISSE® solution at 36o to 77oF (2o to 25oC).
General Information about LATISSE®.
Prescription treatments are sometimes prescribed for conditions that are not mentioned in patient information leaflets. Do not use LATISSE® solution for a condition for which it was not prescribed. Do not give LATISSE® to other people. It may not be appropriate for them to use.
This leaflet summarizes the most important information about LATISSE® solution. If you would like more information, talk with your physician.
You can also call Allergan’s product information department at 1-800-433-8871.

What are the ingredients in LATISSE®?
Active ingredient: bimatoprost
Inactive ingredients: benzalkonium chloride; sodium chloride; sodium phosphate, dibasic; citric acid; and purified water. Sodium hydroxide and/or hydrochloric acid may be added to adjust pH. The pH during its shelf life ranges from 6.8 – 7.8.”

Eyelash perms in Hawaii? Honolulu? Toss out that outdated eyelash curler!  An Eyelash Perm is a safe and effective way to keep your lashes curled and beautiful all the time. An experienced technician can adjust the intensity of the curl to meet your needs. This procedure takes approximately 1 hour and the results generally last for 6-8 weeks, or the natural growth cycle of the eyelashes.

What is an Eyelash Perm?

The eyelash perm procedure at BeautiGoddess Studio uses “rollers” that are gently affixed to the eyelids.  These rollers come in varying sizes, allowing the client to select from a range of super-curly eyelashes (”Betty Boop” style) to a more natural look.  The individual eyelashes are then curled over the rollers, and a permanent solution is applied.  Similar to the hair on your head, the solution allows the lash hairs to retain their curl for a period of 6-8 weeks.  Eyelash perms can dramatically open up the look of the eye area and give the appearance of longer and fuller lashes, even before mascara.

During the eyelash perm, which takes approximately 1 hour, you may lay back and relax and take in the sounds of our soothing spa music, or bring your own iPod. However, you will need to keep your eyes closed and relaxed for the duration of the treatment for the best eyelash perm results.

Is it safe to perm my lashes?

Yes.  This particular eyelash perm solution is proven to work gently, yet effectively, on the lashes, creating a lasting curl without the risk of “frying” them.

Can I wear makeup or contacts during an Eyelash Perm?

We ask you to remove all eye makeup and contacts before your eyelash perm treatment at BeautiGoddess Studio.  This may be done at home or in our day spa (makeup remover and contact solution are available).

How should I care for my lashes after an Eyelash Perm?

Try to avoid wetting your lashes for a few hours after your eyelash perm.  We recommend applying Eyelash Conditioner to the lashes daily. Conditioning eyelash gel and mascara is available at the Studio, by phone, and e-mail.  Using Eyelash Conditioner regularly will ensure that your lashes stay healthy.
