It is every woman’s dream to have long, voluminous and luscious eyelashes. Thankfully, I’ve been pretty blessed and I have very, very long lashes. Having said that, they lack in volume and one or two lashes often fall off every other day. While doing some research, I stumbled upon RevitaLash, which is a popular eyelash conditioner, often raved about by beauty gurus everywhere. It seemed a little gimmicky at first but I decided to try it anyway. Find out what I thought about the product below:
On the RevitaLash website, it says that the eyelash conditioner conditions, revitalises and enhances the look of luxurious eyelashes for dramatic, natural beauty. It revives dry, brittle and lifeless lashes with its proprietary blend of scientifically-advanced technology and natural botanicals. It protects again breakage and brittleness, improves flexibility, moisture and shine.
Here are some of its claims:
- Helps defend eyelashes from daily aggressors
- Enhances the appearance of beautiful, younger-looking, more luxurious eyelashes
- High impact BioPeptin Complex®, peptides and botanicals saturate the lashes with moisture, keeping them soft, luxurious, & healthy-looking
- Formulated with a unique viscosity agent to help product stay on lashes and minimize running.

The RevitaLash Advanced eyelash conditioner comes in a tube, similar to that of a liquid eyeliner. The small tube is handy to carry around in your makeup bag.
In the beginning, I was really sceptical as the product has no scent or colour. I couldn’t even tell if there was any conditioner in the tube. My only indicator was that the conditioner gave off a cooling effect on the skin.
After I remove my makeup and cleanse my face at night, I would follow up with my skincare and finish off with a coat of RevitaLash Advanced before going to bed. I apply a thin line of the eyelash conditioner onto my lash line, staying as close to the root of the lashes as possible. I only use one brush stroke for each eye and I also use the conditioner on my bottom lashes.
As a contact lens wearer, it’s safe to say that the conditioner did not aggravate my eyes. It is comfortable to wear and you’d forget that it’s there. The application is effortless and doesn’t take up much time, so it’s easy to incorporate into anyone’s skincare routine.
After the first week of application, I was amazed at the results. My eyelashes were thicker and significantly longer. Aside from that, my lashes didn’t fall off as much. They were stronger and clearly more intense in volume.
After one month, I finished using my first tube of RevitaLash Advanced. My lashes still look very healthy and the lashes didn’t react badly even though I’ve stopped applying the product. Just one coat of mascara gives me the most amazing lashes.
Overall, this product is wonderful and I would repurchase it repeatedly. My only issue with it is that it’s ridiculously expensive. Having said that, it really does work. If you need to oomph up your eyelashes, save up and invest in a tube of RevitaLash Advanced. I cannot wait to get my hands on my second tube.
