Best Eye Area Softmaxes.
For the past year I’ve mainly focused on ascending my eye area, because to me its one of the easiest way to look better. I have tried everything from castor oil to cope eyebrow hooding pulling and this is what I found that makes the biggest difference, focusing on the eyebrows and eyelashes. This is mainly aimed at people that have lighter eyebrows or shorter eyelashes.Castor Oil (Cold-Pressed, Hex Grade)
Cold-pressed castor oil is one of the easiest ways to ascend your eyebrows and eyelashes but it doesn't make a large difference its rather seen as the beginning. It’s rich in ricin oleic acid, which helps keep the lash and brow hairs hydrated, darker, and less brittle. Using it at night (and a tiny amount in the morning) slowly builds thickness and a healthier look.
It won’t give insane length, but it noticeably improves quality and density.

Cold pressed hex grade castor oil
Peptide Serum (The Ordinary)
The peptide serum from The Ordinary isn’t the biggest visual change, but it’s one of the most important , like the castor oil it strengthen the follicles, reduce shedding, and help the hairs stay in their growth phase longer. This gives you fuller, healthier lashes and brows over time. Using this will have a guaranteed visual difference especially in the eyelashes, The Ordinary eyelash serum personally grew my lashes longer but it could have just been my genetic potential.
Use it twice a day. It stacks well with castor oil.

Dyeing (The Most Noticeable Difference)
This is the highest impact step by far, especially for people with lighter eyebrows. Dyeing instantly improves contrast, makes the eyes stand out more, and gives a cleaner frame.
Any beard dye or eyebrow dye kit works.
For lashes, be extremely careful because if it touches your eye, it burns really bad.
Key:
Apply Aquaphor around the skin to prevent staining.
I really recommend you purchase Aquaphor, not only to protect the skin around your eyes but also as an alternative to mascara. If you put a little Aquaphor on your eyelashes it makes them look much longer and fuller I personally use it almost everyday.
Leaving the dye on longer gives a darker look.
One shade darker than your natural hair is the ideal spot for contrast and framing.
About Eye Exercises
Personally, most “eye workouts,” are cope. There’s barely any scientific backing behind them, and the muscles around the eyes don’t hypertrophy the way people claim.
What actually changes your eye area is:
- lash/brow density
- pigmentation
- contrast
- skin health
- natural structure
Morning & Night Plan
Morning:
Peptide serum → optional tiny bit of castor oil → Aquaphor on lashes if going out.
