About six months ago I tried lash extensions for the first time. Oh my goodness they were such a game changer and from that point forward I was hooked on having as long of lashes as possible. But lash extensions only last for so long … and they are quiiiite pricy to maintain over time. I knew that this wasn’t something I wanted to keep up with long-term both due to the costs and the time it takes to install them (sometimes over an hour each visit!).
Needless to say, I was absolutely thrilled when I received the opportunity to try out the Avon Anew Clinical Unlimited Lashes Serum and Love at 1st Lash Mascara. When the box of lash-enhancing goodies arrived at my doorstep, I squealed with delight and couldn’t wait to try them out.
Today, I’m sharing the results of my almost two-month-long experience using the Avon Anew Clinical Unlimited Lashes Serum. I’ve got before & after pictures and all of my thoughts on the process below! Head on down …
Avon’s Unlimited Lashes Serum + Love at 1st Lash Mascara
I’m sure you’ve heard of the brand Avon many a time. After all, they’ve been coming up with new and innovative beauty products for over 130 years now. Oh, how I wish I could hear my grandma’s stories about her favorite beauty products from back in the day. Wouldn’t that be fun?
One thing I’m sure that would have just blown my own grandma’s mind is the concept of lash serum. We live in an exciting time, y’all! 😉 Avon’s Anew Clinical Unlimited Lashes Serum comes in a tube similar to one you would use for mascara. You apply it similarly to as if you were applying liquid eyeliner and it enriches your lashes to naturally look longer, thicker and stronger in just a matter of weeks!
Before & After
I started using the serum in late July and my before picture is above. On the left, I had just woken up and was completely barefaced and make-up free. I also look like I could use a strong cup of coffee … but that’s a different story. The image on the right is me just last night, a little over a month later. It had been a long day but I’d wiped my eye makeup right off with a cleansing wipe before we snapped this pic.
Even at the different angles of how I’m looking at the camera, I feel like you can still really see a difference in the length and fullness. I know I can when looking in the mirror, that’s for sure.
The serum is formulated with botanicals and peptides that do not only focus on visibly thickening and filling your lashes but they also support healthier- and fuller looking brows too! After a quick swipe on your lashline, you can dab the serum on your brows too. Who doesn’t want thicker and fuller looking brows these days?!
Get Even Longer Looking Lashes with a Little Bit of Love
Avon also sent along their new Love At 1st Lash Mascara for me to try. What sets this mascara apart from others is that it is uniquely developed with Avon’s trademarked LOVE COMPLEXTM. This is a natural blend of ingredients such as Vitamin E, Olive Oil, and Lycopene that nourish lashes while heart-shaped fibers create a weightless volume that makes sure your lashes are lengthened, curled and lifted all day.
Make Your Lashes Part of Your Nightly Routine
I put mascara on at all hours of the day, whenever I decide I need it really. But the lash serum is something to only be used nightly and before bed. Make sure your makeup is removed and your face is clean before application. One dip in the vial is all you need to apply to the edge of the top of your lashes, not the bottom. I put it on right before my nightly face moisturizers, making the lash serum one last thing I’ll do before I hop right into bed.

I love the feeling of going to bed with a clean face and having followed each step on my evening skincare routine. I’m convinced it helps me sleep better too ha. Maybe that’s just the deliciously calming scent of my moisturizer? (I’ll be sharing a post on my routine soon!) But regardless, checking off each step of my routine is just a little addition to my day that makes me feel like it was all the more productive. Not only mentally but for my health & wellness too! And really, a quick swipe here & there to get longer and fuller looking lashes? Such an easy addition to any routine!
