Eyelash loss can be caused by a number of reasons; some of these are due to normal causes, while others can be due to serious health problems. If one or two of the hairs on your eyelashes fall out every day, that's normal because all the hair on your body is constantly being renewed and will grow back over time. That is your normal eyelash growth cycle. If not, you may need to consult a doctor about your abnormal eyelash loss. However, there are actually several things you can do to help ensure that your eyelashes grow back properly, such as changing your makeup routine and keeping your face clean and free of eyelash mites or an overgrowth of skin bacteria that are often the cause of eyelash loss..
Step
Part 1 of 3: Maintaining Eyelash Growth
Step 1. Anticipate normal growth
There's really little you can do to make your eyelashes grow faster. The best thing you can do is simply to keep the growth of the fallen eyelashes from growing back, which means you have to focus on the prevention and maintenance process. Expecting eyelash regrowth will take some time, so you will need to make an effort to maintain the growth.
Step 2. Avoid using make-up
Do not worry if you know that the cause of your eyelash loss is the result of health-related things such as chemotherapy or hormonal problems. However, if your eyelash loss is due to an unknown cause, you need to avoid applying make-up to the area around your eyes for two reasons. First, the makeup you use may be out of date so after a while it will cause the growth of bacteria that can cause your eyelashes to fall out. Another reason is that some people are allergic to the ingredients in makeup which can damage your skin and cause hair loss.
Clean your face after applying make-up. Cleaning your face from make-up that has been worn all day can keep you from skin irritation and eyelash loss
Step 3. Wash your face regularly
Frequent eyelash loss is caused by an overgrowth of bacteria around the eyelids and face. Wash your face daily with a mild soap designed to keep and control the growth of bacteria on your face.
You also don't want your skin to dry out, because of the micro-cracks that can lead to over-infection
Step 4. Set a healthy diet
A diet with a very limited diet can have an impact on hair growth and health. Lack of vitamin D, vitamin A, and complete protein can cause or worsen hair loss. Have a balanced diet with a variety of foods that contain the nutrients your body needs to make the hairs on your body healthy.
Foods rich in these nutrients include cereals, milk, carrots, kale, fish, and nuts
Step 5. Let your eyelashes form naturally
Overuse or incorrect use of an eyelash curler can directly tug at your eyelashes, especially if the hairs on your eyelashes are already weak and brittle. Don't use an eyelash curler for a while and see if it helps keep your lashes from falling out.
Step 6. Keep your hands away from your face
There are millions of bacteria on the palms of your hands, so if you touch your face (whether for scratching, wiping, wiping, etc.), you will be carrying these bacteria on your facial skin. Your eyes are very sensitive to bacteria and can easily become infected. By keeping your hands away from the skin on your face, you will ensure that your eyes (and eyelashes) stay healthy.
- If you find it difficult to break this habit, try placing a piece of tape on your fingertips. This will make you aware of when you are about to do it and help you to break the habit.
- Find another way to keep your hands busy, such as by playing with a rubber band on your wrist.
Part 2 of 3: Covering Lost Eyelashes
Step 1. Make sure that makeup is not the cause of your problem
Before using makeup and other products to cover the thinness of your eyelashes, make sure that the products you are using do not cause hair loss. Consult a doctor or experiment with not wearing any makeup for a few weeks and then slowly try one type of makeup at a time. Alternate one week to use each product and switch to another product.
Step 2. Apply eyeliner
Liquid eyeliner can be used on your lash line to make it look like you have thick lashes if your lashes are bald or very thin. Try to use colors that give your natural beautiful color. For example, black will work well with dark hair, while brown will work if you have light hair.
Step 3. Apply mascara
If you have thin lashes, you can use mascara to make your lashes look thicker and last longer. Try to use mascara conditioner to keep your lashes healthy.
You can even add extra volume by applying baby powder to a layer of mascara
Step 4. Use false eyelashes
If you don't have lashes that can be thickened, try using false lashes. False eyelashes are quite cheap and are available at drugstores and beauty stores. All you need to do is apply eyelash glue (which is usually readily available) and then attach the eyelashes with tweezers.
You can also use false eyelashes if you don't have lashes. It is also very useful if you have half or partially bald eyelashes. Cut and use as needed to cover the baldness of your eyelashes
Step 5. Pay attention to other parts of your face
Perform make-up techniques by paying attention to other parts of your face. Focusing attention can divert attention from the eyes to other areas. For example, you can wear a light shade of lipstick to focus attention on your lips. Another option is to use even bangs along your brows. The thick hair around your eyes will make it appear that you have thicker eyelashes.
You can use props too. Try wearing bold, bright-rimmed glasses to draw attention to the sides of the frame, or a necklace that draws attention to your chest
Part 3 of 3: Addressing the Main Cause
Step 1. Keep your face clean
One of the common causes of eyelash problems is an infection called blepharitis. This is an overgrowth of bacteria on the face caused by several things, for example from uncleanness that results in the growth of parasites. What you can do to prevent this problem is to wash your face regularly.
If you get bacteria on your face, for example when an animal licks your face or when you wipe your face while preparing food, wash your face immediately
Step 2. Don't pull your eyelashes
There is a common type of disorder, similar to OCD, in which a person feels compelled to pull their own hair. For most sufferers they usually pull the hair on their head, but some also pull their eyelashes or eyebrows. This disorder is called "trichotillomania". If you think you may have this disorder, consult a therapist. There are medications and behavioral therapies that can help you quit and feel more relaxed and relaxed.
Even if you don't think you have this disorder, never pull your hair out for any reason. If you feel that you can't stop, reconsider the possibility that you have trichotillomania
Step 3. Perform thyroid and hormone health tests
Sometimes eyelash loss is the result of a health problem in your body. Your eyelash loss may be due to a thyroid or hormone problem that limits or inhibits hair growth on your eyelashes. Usually, you will see hair loss in other areas of your body as well, but this is not guaranteed.
If you are young, you may have a serious health condition caused by a problem with your hormones. However, if you are old enough, say, over your 40s or 50s, this is normal for normal hair loss. There are drugs that you can take, even for normal hair loss, by consulting your doctor about your complaints
Step 4. Watch for hair loss elsewhere
If you have hair loss only on your eyelashes, you may have an infection. However, if you notice areas of hair loss elsewhere on your body (especially on your head), you may have alopecia. This is a relatively common disorder and causes hair loss all over the body. Consult your doctor about the right treatment for you.
Step 5. Consult your doctor
If this problem occurs repeatedly, you should consult your doctor immediately. Some eyelash loss is normal but too much can mean there are other health problems. Some health problems can be very serious, such as problems with your thyroid. Therefore, immediately consult a doctor if your hair loss occurs or recurs for a long time.
