Brooke Shields, Latisse, and Make a Wish


Brooke Shields, famed eyebrow specialist Anastasia Soare, and Allergan (makers of eyelash enhancer Latisse) have teamed up to help the Make a Wish Foundation. The Latisse Wishes campaign was begun to help raise money for the Make a Wish Foundation, on the idea that people make a wish when they blow on an eyelash. The company has donated an initial amount of $500,000 to Make a Wish, and plan to donate another $5 for each person who signs up on www.Latisse.com up to a total of $1 million.

So far we are seeing very good results from Latisse. I am currently in the middle of filming a local TV segment where we follow a woman who's using it. So far, five weeks into her treatment, she's noticing a nice enhancement of her eyelashes.

I've never been one to make a wish on an eyelash that falls out. I just hate it when one falls out and sticks to my cheek for several hours.

    I am hesitant to use Latisse because I have very green eyes and have heard that the iris color can darken in some individuals. What are your thoughts on this?

  2. I've never heard of Latisse but I'm interested. I did a round of chemo with interferon in 2007/2008 and I lost hair everywhere. My eyelashes, which had been quite thick, have never been the same...
