The hot new eyelash-enhancing drug Latisse was given the stamp of approval by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration last month. Latisse is made by Allergan, the medical products giant known for Botox and Juvederm.
When applied to the base of the lashes, Latisse keeps hairs in their growth phase, producing fuller, longer, darker eyelashes. The effects of Latisse are not permanent, so regular use is necessary. Eyelashes return to normal after the patient stops applying Latisse.
Allergan accidentally discovered Latisse during a clinical trial for a known glaucoma treatment called Lumigan. When patients reported that Lumigan had a highly desired side-effect – significantly longer eyelashes – Allergan began investigating other uses.
