A CARIBBEAN beauty buy stimulated the growth of one woman’s sparse brows and short lashes.
She shared the trick that she swears by for getting optimal results from the product.
She posted a photo of her enviably long and full lashes on Reddit’s Skincare Addiction forum, which has almost 2 million members.
The beauty enthusiast revealed her hair growth product has also worked wonders on her under eyes.
“I use Jamaican dark castor oil for my eyebrow and eyelash growth, also it helps with my blue circles for some reason,” she said, writing under the handle Pinewinedick.
“Oh and improves my skin texture too.”
She shared a link to buy Kuza Naturals Jamaican Black Castor Oil on Amazon after being bombarded with requests to find out which brand she uses.
“I don’t really follow any routine, ideally I’d wear it at night because I can keep it on all night,” she said.
“Sometimes I wear it during the day if I’m staying at home, but that’s only on my eyebrows since your eyesight can get blurry when you put it on your lashes.”
She also shared a must-try method for applying the oil.
“I use a mascara wand from an old mascara bottle,” she said.
“As long as you wash it after every use, I’ve never gotten an infection from it.”
Hundreds of people upvoted the post and many commenters said they were eager to try the hack for themselves.
“Your lashes are gorgeous!!!” one person said.
“Such beautiful lashes!!!!!!!” another said.
A third revealed they’d already tried the hack and achieved their desired results.
“I did this and it totally regrew my hair and eyebrows after my postpartum hair loss and it worked wonders!” they said.
“My brows have never been so thick lol.”

The black castor oil “rejuvenates” hair while also protecting it from breakage.
The brand recommends massaging a small amount of the oil onto the scalp for nourishing hair but hasn’t shared any tips for applying it to brows or lashes.
According to Healthline, eyelashes should be clean and free from makeup before using a cotton swab to apply castor oil.
In the morning, it should be washed off using water or a makeup remover.
Castor oil is considered to be safe for lashes, but experts recommend doing a small patch test before using it all over.
