Revitalash for Naturally Thick, Full Eyelashes


Considering I spent 3 days last weekend at a major International skin conference, I was surprisingly not enthused by much of the new products on offer. It was filler after filler after filler, all claiming to be the best. Yawn...

The first product to catch my eye was Revitalash. Having never had eye lashes of any form, and not being able to tolerate anyone coming near my eyes, falsies are out of the question. Here's a product that stimulates natural lash growth by daily application? Interesting & definitely worth trying out.

RevitaLash™ was developed by Dr. Michael Brinkenhoff as a special gift for his wife, Gayle, while she was recovering from breast cancer. Intensive chemotherapy treatments had damaged Gayle’s once-beautiful eyelashes, leaving them sparse, breakable and fragile.

After extensive research with a team of cosmetic chemists, Dr. Brinkenhoff formulated an eyelash conditioner that, after just a few weeks, gave a renewed look of vitality to Gayle’s eyelashes. Results are supposedly seen after between three to ten weeks of daily application. Then maintenance applications a couple of times a week are enough. Interesting!

I started my treatment that very night and am waiting for the day I can have visible eye lashes.

We have brought in a vials for clinic sale. Each one costs $238 and lasts for at least 6 months. At maintenance phase, each vial lasts 3 years!

Application is very straightforward. Just draw on upper and lower lash lines every night on cleansed face. Wait 5 minutes for it to dry before applying normal skin care products. Then wait with bated breath for growth.

Hi doc,

is revitalash deemed as safe? think i read a report in ST that it is unsafe for use. Btw, where are they retailed in Singapore? Am keen to try...

I believe there was a problem with the original formulation. What we stock is the new formulation which is safe. We carry stocks of Revitalash at Simply Aesthetic. You can call 67325527 for more details.

Cheers!

Hi Doc :) Is this product approved by the health authorities in Singapore? Like HSA or MOH? Just wondering whether it's approved as safe before I try.

Thanks! Q.

Hi!

The distributors (Skin Fitness) should have registered the product with HSA. HSA is usually very stringent about anything that is applied around the eyes, so you don't have much to worry about regarding product safety.

Just as an aside, the currebt stock comes with a free eyelash curler too! That's the first time we've seen this packaging & it may just be a one off special!
