Early verdict · Few reviews so farWhat the gurus are saying
Latisse does grow lashes visibly, but the permanent darkening of the iris it can cause gives experts pause. One dermatologist notes this side effect is rare with eyelash serums but irreversible if it happens, and now recommends peptide-based alternatives instead. Another expert confirms the iris darkening risk is real and warns that some people also experience darkening around the eyelid where the serum is applied, though that can sometimes fade when you stop. The key: apply only to the upper lash line, never the under-eye, to lower that risk.
