Fake lashes, real damage
They may look great—but here’s what they’re doing to your health.

Good morning health hackers,
Let’s talk beauty trends.
Specifically… FAKE EYELASHES!

They seem harmless.
But what’s actually sitting on your eyelids?
The glue used in fake lashes contains formaldehyde.
Yes—formaldehyde. A known toxin.
And it’s going right next to your eyes.
Here’s what that means:
Severe irritation
Formaldehyde is linked to burning, itching, rashes—and sometimes even vision changes.
Allergic reactions
Many report painful swelling, sensitivity, or reactions that last for days.
Long-term risks
Formaldehyde is also a classified carcinogen.
Over time, repeated exposure = unnecessary risk.
Real story:
A woman shared her experience of nearly losing her eyesight due to repeated lash glue use.
It’s not just a beauty mishap—it’s a health warning.
what are your safer options?
• Hypoallergenic lash glue (no formaldehyde)
• Natural lash growth serums
• Or the simplest one: go natural and let your lashes breathe
Beauty shouldn’t come at the cost of your vision.
Been dealing with hormone imbalances, unexplained fatigue, or recurring skin irritation?
I’ve got two availabilities that just opened up.
