If you're anything like us, you're obsessed with eyelash growth serums because, guess what? Some of them really do work! Olaplex LashBond has come into the picture to compete with some of the best ones out there in the market. Designed with the same science and technology that has made Olaplex a household name in the hair care industry, this serum is specifically formulated to nourish and enhance the growth of your lashes, giving you longer, fuller lashes that will have everyone saying ‘Are those your real lashes?’
The secret to the effectiveness of this Olaplex Lashbond that promises to leave you feeling lash-smug in as little as four weeks lies in its advanced formula, which is packed with a unique blend of nourishing ingredients that work together to strengthen, lengthen, and thicken your lashes. This includes a powerful combination of amino acids, vitamins, and minerals that work to promote healthy lash growth and prevent breakage while also moisturising and conditioning your lashes to keep them looking their best.
Unlike other lash growth serums that can cause irritation or discomfort, the Olaplex LashBond Eyelash Growth Serum is gentle enough for twice-daily use and is suitable for all skin types. Its non-irritating formula is also free from harsh chemicals and is vegan and cruelty-free, making it a perfect choice for anyone who wants to enhance their lashes without compromising on their values.
As for application? Things couldn't get simpler; all you need to do is apply a small amount to your lashes each morning and each night before bed and let the serum work its magic. With regular use, you'll start to notice a significant improvement in the length and thickness of your lashes, giving you the confidence to step out with beautiful, bold lashes that are uniquely yours.
Sounds dreamy, but does it actually work? Five GLAMOUR staffers who are virgins for eyelash serum try it out for four weeks, and here are their brutally honest thoughts.

Sally, PA, to European Editorial Director for GLAMOUR
I am a self-proclaimed Olaplex girlie. The hair products have done wonders for me, making the mane feel thick and damage free. So, when asked to try out the new Lashbond Building Serum, my hopes were high. The new formula suggests that if used correctly (applied twice daily, AM & PM) after two weeks, you will have more conditioned and healthier-looking lashes and fuller lashes in 4 weeks. The timing of being asked to try out this product couldn't have been more perfect as, at the time, I was paying the price of using lash extensions. Once the falsies had fallen out naturally, I was left with very sparse, wispy natural lashes, so I was determined to regrow them to their former fullest glory.
Consistency is key here, and actually, that was my biggest downfall while trying out this product. The AM application worked like a charm and fell straight into my daily routine. This is due to being able to apply mascara after waiting 90 seconds for the serum to dry. It was the PM application that let me down. Despite being really pleased with the final effects of using this product, if I had used it to its maximum potential, I think my lashes now would be even better. Overall this serum has differently resorted my lashes after being damaged, and they now feel not only longer but thicker than ever. As always, Olaplex, it's a big tick from me.

As a long sufferer of stubbornly straight and short eyelashes, I am always on the lookout for a product that will make my low-maintenance make-up routine more straightforward. I use an eyelash curler pretty much every day, which I'm pretty certain damages the lashes and causes increased lash loss. Introducing a lash serum to my routine seems like a bit of a no-brainer but to be honest, I've always been slightly sceptical about the results, but I was super intrigued to see Olaplex's offering.
I've been using the Lashbond in the nighttime routine for about a month, and I have definitely seen an improvement in the fullness of my lashes. A few of the sparse spots have begun to fill in, and my mascara seems to be applying better than before. I'll keep using it for a couple more months to see the full effect of my progress, but so far, I've been impressed!

I was super excited to try the Olaplex Lashbond serum as I'm a huge fan of their haircare range, and it's always my first choice on wash day! The packaging is super slick and easy to carry (I made sure it was in my carry-on for my vacation so I could continue my twice-a-day routine). The brush makes the product really, really easy to apply just by swiping it across my lashes during my skincare routine and just before bed.
I loved the idea of it but found it hard to stay consistent, so not sure my results are the most reliable! I wouldn't say it made a massive difference to my lashes, but I can tell they've made them a little glossier!! The product is a super easy add to your routine, so had I been consistent, I'm sure my lashes would have been flourishing! It's such a practical additional step that feels like nothing, the packaging and application is super slick, and the product itself doesn't feel super heavy on the eyes! My lashes are glossier, so a win there too!

Having tried a few of the competitor lash serum brands, I’ll be 100% honest and say that said competitors have a bit of an edge on Olaplex. That said, for the price point and given the fact that my lashes did indeed elongate in the five weeks I gave them with the product, I’d still 100% recommend this.
Make sure to be vigilant with your morning and night applications and re-dip the brush as needed to ensure you’ve got a good scoop of product. Big lashes on a budget? Olaplex is your gal.

My lashes are fairly long, naturally, but I’m always here for a stronger lash game, so I was super excited to try Olaplex LashBond. I applied LashBond each night for a few weeks, and what I noticed on first use was that, unlike other products I’ve tried, the brush on this didn’t come out overly saturated with product, making application a breeze. I also liked that the formula didn’t feel gloopy or clumpy, with it vitally not irritating my eyes - something I'm always conscious of with lash serums as a contact lens wearer.
When it came to results, I definitely noticed less eyelash fallout when removing my makeup and felt like my bottom lashes had gained some length. While I was hoping to see more dramatic length on my upper lashes, when curled, I did notice a subtle difference and definitely felt like my lashes had a lot more fullness on the whole. Overall, I'd say this is a great starting point for those seeking to strengthen and lengthen their lashes.
