Common causes of eyelash loss:

1. Aging and menopause often result in hormonal imbalances that can thin hair, eyebrows and lashes.
2. Rough treatment like vigorous scrubbing and pulling while removing makeup
3. Irritation or allergic reaction to mascara is sometimes the cause of eyelash loss. Because mascara hardens your lashes while you wear it, sleeping in mascara also increases the risk of eyelash breakage and shortening.
4. Eyelash extensions use a medical grade glue to attach to your natural lashes, tugging them off rather than allowing them to fall out on their own can result in thinning lashes.
5. Medical conditions such as blepharitis, thyroid imbalance, psoriasis or eczema can contribute to lashes falling out.
6. Excessive stress sometimes results in hair and eyelash loss.
7. Chemotherapy drugs can cause hair loss including the eyelashes.
8. Any eye condition, such as dry eye, that makes you rub your eyes will contribute to lash loss and breakage.

How to prevent Eyelash Loss:

Keep your lashes healthy by washing your face and eyelids daily with gentle soap and water. Glands in the eyelid naturally lubricate lashes, so lotions and conditioners are not necessary.

Pay attention to your mascara expiry dates to avoid any bacterial infections. Mascara should be replaced every 3 months.

If you have persistent eye irritation, make an appointment to see your family doctor or eye specialist to rule out any medical causes.

Eat a healthy well balanced diet to provide your body with what it needs to keep your lashes growing.
