Caution: Many non-prescription lash serums may stain irises and ruin orbital fat just like Latisse may

I was surprised to hear this because I've only ever heard of Latisse (which is not typically called a serum) causing these side effects, and I thought I'd be safe trying GrandeLASH-MD. I assumed that this product had the same safety profile like The Ordinary (peptide-based) because both are non-prescription and described using the word "serum." However, both Latisse and many other, non-prescription alternatives, use roughly the same prostglandin (not peptide-based) mechanism to promote hair growth, which is what causes the side effects.

What really confuses me is how topical treatments can cause fat loss through their effects, but a topical medication to increase fat can’t be made or produced. Like, what kind of nonsense is that?

It’s easier to make your irises darker, but the moment you want to remove some melanin oh no, suddenly that’s not possible.

Yeah I know. It feels like very often in looksmaxing are there plenty of ways or mechanisms to worsen your existing problems, but ways of mitigating then are far and few in between or very inconvenient lol
