If you, like me, have anemic, pathetic excuses for eyelashes, you may stare longingly at those who've been blessed with long, curled, dark ones. (Though, truth be told, it's usually 5 year-old little boys who have the hands down best lashes.)

You, like me, may have tried extensions (read: about how much I hated them, here), every mascara in the book (my absolute fave is Benefit They're Real) and even, sigh, false lashes to attain that long, luxurious (dare I invoke her name?) Kim Kardashian look. All to less-than-stellar results.

In fact, the only thing I've yet to try to increase the volume and length of my lashes is an eyelash solution - prescription or otherwise. I just don't see myself having the wherewithal or, for that matter, patience, required to painstakingly apply the formula to my lashes every night for 16 (!) weeks before seeing results -- and then having to keep it up ad infinitum.

That was before I came across the new (free) app from Latisse. iLash Studio lets you upload a photo of your lash-less self and, presto, in mere moments you can see how drop dead gorge you'd with longer, thicker lashes. It's amazing, really.

Amazing enough, in fact, to have made me realize that of course I do have the extra, what, 20 seconds?, a night to apply the potion to reap the results in a "mere" 4 months. So, yes, I'm motivated and I think I'm going to give it a shot.

Have you ever tried Latisse or one of its competitors? What were the results? And, if not, are you tempted?
