Long, voluminous lashes are synonymous with beauty and expressiveness. They open up the eyes, give the face more radiance, and make the eyes look more awake. However, not everyone is naturally blessed with long lashes.
Fortunately, there are many options and treatments to make your long lashes dream come true without having to apply mascara three times. I will give you an overview of the methods with the best booster effect – from lash lifting and lash serums to my own care methods for more growth.
Volume and romance – long lashes
Long, curled, and dense lashes are a dream look. You can get extensions that artificially lengthen and thicken your lashes, but this is time-consuming and also more expensive than my methods.
First of all, it is important to take good care of your lashes. The right treatment for care and protection will preserve your natural lashes, so that you can lengthen them with various tricks. And always remove your mascara before going to bed! Gently removing mascara and using moisturizing products like lotion prevents lashes from breaking. Never use an eyelash curler after applying mascara, as this can also quickly lead to broken lashes.
Oils such as castor oil or coconut oil can promote lash growth, but their results are not always reliable and they are not suitable for everyone's skin type. Here are my three tips for beautiful lashes:
Lash lifting
Lash lifting is a good method to gently and permanently accentuate the eyes. During a lash lift, the lashes are curled upwards with a special lotion and permanently fixed. The result is lashes that look longer and more voluminous – without mascara or an eyelash curler.
The advantage of a lash lift is that the treatment lasts up to 6 weeks and the result still looks natural. But just like with extensions, this treatment is time-consuming, and not everyone has the time for it every 6 weeks. That is why I have two more tips for you instead of a lash lift:
The secret to longer lashes – lash serum
A lash serum can support natural lash growth and help your lashes become longer and stronger. A high-quality serum promotes the growth of your natural lashes and intensifies their density for a stunning eye look – even without extensions or mascara.
However, many lash serums contain unnecessary preservatives or parabens, so you should look for natural ingredients. Our Sensitiv Lash Serum contains biotin and hyaluronic acid and uses plant-based active ingredient complexes that stimulate hair growth and make lashes more resilient.
If you have sensitive skin and regular makeup is not suitable, the lash serum is safe for you: The Sensitiv Lash Serum is specially developed for sensitive eyes and is free from silicones, parabens, and mineral oils.
Achieving an intense effect without makeup or time-consuming appointments every few weeks for a lash lift and extensions is very easy if you regularly use a high-quality product like our serum. The product is also great for applying to your eyebrows if you want a more intense look.
Volume mascara with a secret ingredient
For naturally cared-for, longer, and denser lashes with more color, you can either use a volumizing mascara or combine it with a serum to further accentuate the naturally grown curl. Make sure that the mascara is free from harmful substances such as silicones or parabens.
High-quality mascara can keep your lashes supple and well-cared for by building natural protection with beeswax. In addition, the magical ingredient in our Volume Mascara provides a stunning plumping effect and volume boost: the included hyaluronic acid.
Hyaluronic acid as a real booster for your lashes
Hyaluronic acid is a molecule naturally found in the body, primarily in the skin and joints. It can bind many times its own weight in water, which helps keep your skin plump, supple, and hydrated.
Hyaluronic acid is frequently used in cosmetics such as serums and skin creams, but it is a real miracle worker in hair and lash serums.
As an ingredient, hyaluronic acid helps to moisturize the lashes, making them more supple and less brittle. Mascara tends to dry out lashes over time – regular application of hyaluronic acid helps counteract this. Well-moisturized lashes look softer, shinier, and more flexible.
My care tips
Over time, I have developed my own routine for long, beautiful lashes, which I am happy to share with you.
Cleansing
In the evening, I cleanse my face, paying special attention to cleansing my eyes and, therefore, my lashes as well. And don't forget your eyebrows either – they need to be cared for too!
Our LongLashes Eye Cleanser is not only gentle and thorough, but its oil-free formula also makes it perfect for use with lash and eyebrow serums.
The enzymatic cleansing foam works wonders on the rest of your face. Papain and fruit enzymes not only remove makeup and sebum but also the residue from environmental factors that your face is exposed to every day.
Double Cleansing Duo
Sensitiv Lash Serum
Application is very simple: I only have to apply it twice a day.
I apply the lash serum in the morning and then wait about 10 minutes after application to let it work well before applying makeup to my eyes. In the evening, I do the same.
If you use the serum before going to bed, I would advise you to wait about 20 to 30 minutes to let it work - that is exactly what I do too.

Mascara for volume
To get more color and volume, I use our Volume Mascara; the perfect product for a striking eye look while also caring for your lashes. The mascara is already a staple of my makeup routine because the brush distributes the pigments well and I do not have to worry all day about my full lashes turning into panda eyes.
If you are looking for a mascara that can make your lashes a showstopper, the Volume Mascara is perfect for you. You can use the Volume Mascara with hyaluronic acid for extra curl.
