i have two questions...

1. okay so i am IN LOVE with my eyelashes i could not live without them..but i was just wanting to know is there anything that can help my elelashes grow or look fuller because over the years they seem to not look as good. Like on one of my eyes i have a gap...it is growing back but i have no idea how or when it got there...could taking my eye makeup off with baby oil have something to do with it?

my second question...

2. i have been looking this up on the internet for a long time now but i have this bump on the line of my eyelid and its NOT a stye i have had it since i can remember and sometimes it would irritate me and i would pick at it...but it would grow back? and then it would scab and then i would pick at it and then the cycle would just repeat...well for sometime it totally disaperred and didnt bother me at all. Well like this past year it came back and i would pick at it but i would mke the surounding eye lashes fall out...so my mother told me not to pick at it anymore and it would go away...so i tried that

and OH MY GOSH it grew like 3 times bigger and now it is just about as long as my eyelashes...it disgusting...

ummm i dont pick at my eyelashes...i pick at the bump because it would grow and irritate me...now it is back to the size the it use to be when i was younger...becuase i picked at it...so obviously stoping the picking didnt help it, just made it worse...i give up on trying to find out if anyone has had this so my mom is just going to take me to the doctor and see if i can get it removed

thanks anyways

It irritates my eye and it feels like i constantly have something in it...if i disturd you maybe you shouldnt have read my post

Your mother was right. Answers to questions 1 and 2. stop picking at your eyelashes. Don't use eyelash curlers or false eyelashes. Use mild Theratears sterilid to clean the oil and makeup off your lashes (its over the counter).

for 2 have your mom take you in to see with the bump is on your lid. see an eye MD ophthalmologist. You can find one near you at www.aao.org
