My eyelashes were wrecked. I went for Grandelash – an eyelash serum advertised as an infallible product. I wanted to bring back the health of my eyelashes after falsies. I just hoped they would look the way they did before applying fake lashes. I was afraid it wouldn’t work. Now I know my natural lashes can be as long as the falsies. It’s thanks to Nanolash serum – my favorite and top lash product. I didn’t know it when I started using serums. Tempted by the promises, I chose Grandelash..

Grandelash serum is packed in a funny cardboard box with pink flowers. The bottle is smaller than in most products and the serum has a capacity of just 2 ml. The tube has a golden color and doesn’t look elegant. I liked such a design when I used it. My taste has changed. I’ve tested lots of products and know that a lash serum may look stylish and good. Just like Nanolash. I’m not going to give up on it.

Moving on to the application… it’s troublefree.

The small bottle looks bad but it’s handy. You apply the serum with a long, thin applicator brush which allows the product to reach the bulbs. I’ve never had any problems with such applicators. Too bad, my Grandelash serum was faulty. I can’t believe there’s a brush which loses bristles, especially such a small and precise brush. This is what happened to me. Luckily the applicator didn’t lose all of the bristles because I would have a problem applying the serum to the lash base. An applicator is the most important.

Grandelash serum has gone through clinical tests and hasn’t shown any side effects. Sadly, I came across some unpleasant surprises and had to buy hydrating drops, even though I used the serum following the instructions – applied it to the lash line only. I made sure the product didn’t get into the eyes. Still, my eyes felt extremely dry. Looking off, I know I didn’t get enough sleep these days and that was the reason… I used the serum up, applying it together with moisturising drops.

The brand brags about natural and alcohol-free ingredients. I’ve never heard of an alcohol-infused lash serum so I think it’s nothing extraordinary. Grandelash-MD serum is free of chemicals or pigments. It’s harmless. The enhancer is made up of many natural conditioning substances. Grapeseed, ginseng, yeast, bearberry extracts etc. There’s also a moisturising glycerol, panthenol, vitamin E and others. The list is long and varied. I’m not sure if it’s a good thing. I prefer products with fewer ingredients.

Eventually… the effects. Nothing to wonder about. Grandelash serum didn’t bring desired effects on my eyelashes. I’m not saying it’s the product’s fault. It might have been caused by the horrible state of my lashes. Grandelash proved to be too weak for me. I didn’t notice eyelash extension, volume, darkening or growth. Surely it doesn’t give the fake lashes effect. No wonder I kept on searching for an alternative.

Why I recommend it?

• Grandelash serum is based on a full set of natural ingredients.
• The alcohol-free product is rich in good substances.
• The serum has been clinically tested.
• The application isn’t problematic.

Why I don’t recommend it?

• The list of ingredients is too long and varied.
• Grandelash isn’t housed in a nice tube.
