Really, I have no interest in this serum. But it'll be good to hear your opinion Mac-Guy

First test-run on the lower lashline. The serum is quite liquidy, so I ended up with product where I do not want to grow lashes
It has a very cooling effect that seems to last forever - even after 10 minutes, I can still feel where I applied it. I don't mind the cooling sensation, but the fact that it dries so slowly will make it more difficult to incorporate it into a morning routine. Luckily, I did/do not feel any stinging or burning.
excellent! thanks for your great pictures! i guess i shall have to be careful with mine if it is quite liquidy! i am so clumsy so would probs get it on my brows or something stupid! lol!First test-run on the lower lashline.

Haha, I had got serum on my nose and I don't want any hair growing on my nose! Yikes!
The cooling sensation lasted over 20 minutes. Once it is completely dry, it feels a bit tight similar to the sensation you get when applying (too much) of a gel eye serum. I will see how it goes later tonight. I guess practice will help to find out the right amount for each eye.

I hope it works out for you! I'm going to be grabbing this with my glam glass haul (it's perm so i'm not gonna rush but i'm still excited for it) it's summer so the morning routine won't be a problem now but for school i'm not sure. Did you have to wait additional time after it was dry to apply eye products?
wow!! that's one long cooling sensation! i take it you have to apply it morning and night right?

If I want to follow the instructions, yes. This means getting up 15 min earlier or changing around my morning routine. I applied it on my hand to see how long it takes to dry and it literally takes forever to dry. It was not possible to apply a liner on the still-wet surface as it would just slide away and push the serum in places where you don't want it to go. Once it was dry, the area felt slightly tight, but this went away after 15 min or so. The instructions read, "ALLOW TO DRY COMPLETELY BEFORE APPLYING MAKE UP. DO NOT RUB."

that would be a pain, since it came with a brush it should work out good, but practice makes perfect!

I've also been using this for a few days, but on me I find the product is totally dry within a few minutes. I'm already finding that when I take my make-up off at night, I have less lashes coming out and that my lashes seem to be a bit stronger. I'm very curious to see what it's like after eight weeks. It's strange though because I definitely have not experienced anywhere near a 15-20 minute dry-down time and I'm applying it fairly generously.
oohh all sounds very good! sometimes I get scared at the amount of lashes that seem to come out at night - i see at least 4 on my cotton pads!!
