While some women, and even men, are blessed with the perfect eyelashes, thick, long and dramatic, for others using fake eyelashes or lashes of mascara is the only option.

However, there are a number of ways one can achieve the perfect gorgeous eyelashes with some natural remedies.

Castor Oil & Olive Oil

Wash off in the morning. Both the oils nourish the lashes, making them thick and beautiful in no time.

Petroleum Jelly

Many people swear by this easy remedy. Petroleum Jelly or Vaseline is a household staple, and works effectively to enhance eyelash growth. It promotes the growth of hair follicles on the lash line and prevents the formation of dry skin on the eyelids too.

Vitamin E

Vitamin E contains antioxidants that promote the circulation of blood while strengthening and nourishing the cells. It naturally heals the skin, and gives a boost to the growth of eyelashes. Serum from a Vitamin E capsule should be massaged on the eyelashes and eyelids regularly for smoldering sexy eyelashes.

Shea Butter

Shea Butter is not only a blessing for the body, but works its charm on the eyelashes too. It contains essential Vitamin E and Vitamin B that keep the eyelashes hydrated and moisturized, and increase the growth and thickness. Massage organic shea butter on the eyelashes for at least a minute daily for fast results.

Glycerine and Aloe Vera

This home-made eyelash conditioner consisting of aloe vera gel and glycerine is beneficial for long and thick eyelashes. Take a teaspoon of freshly squeezed aloe vera gel and add glycerine to it. Apply to your eyelashes for 15 minutes and then wash off with cool water. Repeat regularly for best results. Glycerine keeps the lashes lustrous and aloe vera gel prevents eyelash-hair loss.

Coconut Milk

Pure coconut milk contains protein and essential fats that aid in the growth of eyelashes. Dab two cotton balls in cold coconut milk, squeeze the excess and keep your eyelids covered with the cotton balls for 15 minutes. Wipe your eyelids gently with the coconut milk soaked cotton and wash off with cold water.

Along with using these remedies regularly, it is important to keep your lashes free of any makeup residue before you sleep. Avoid sharing eye makeup with anyone and keep your eye makeup tools clean. Don't rub the eyes vigorously and maintain a healthy diet that is overall beneficial for your skin and body.
