Make this DIY eyelash growth serum to nourish your eyelashes and promote them to grow thick and long. Coconut oil contains nourishing nutrients that can help promote healthier, thicker lashes. Plus, it’s easy to use and relatively inexpensive.
It’s no secret we love coconut oil around here. Coconut oil is incredible for baking and skincare and is a beneficial remedy for many beauty issues, including the growth and maintenance of eyelashes.
This nourishing oil has a high concentration of fatty acids that benefit hair follicles, helping them become healthier and more robust. It also contains vitamin E, which helps promote healthy skin cells and protect against damage from environmental factors.
How To Make DIY Eyelash Growth Serum with Coconut Oil
This homemade serum uses three amazing plant-based oils that all work together to nourish and generate hair growth. You will need organic virgin coconut oil, jojoba oil, and castor oil for this DIY. It would also be good to have a small container or empty mascara tube to store this serum.
Gently mix the oils in a small bowl. Once mixed, pour the serum into a container or lash dispenser.
Note: Do NOT add essential oils to this eyelash serum. Essential oils are very potent and should never be applied in, on, or near the eye.
How To Apply: Before applying anything to your face, ensure you wash your hands first. Then, use the serum on the eyelashes and along the lash line. You can use an eyelash brush to apply the serum to the lashes. Be careful not to get the serum into your eyes. The oils should irritate the eyes, but they can be uncomfortable if they do get in the eye.
What are the benefits of coconut oil for your lashes?
Coconut oil is an excellent natural alternative for eyelash health and beauty. Not only does coconut oil nourish, strengthen and condition your lashes, but its hydrophobic properties also help repel dirt and other impurities that can accelerate lash damage. In addition, its moisturizing effects also help protect against environmental factors like pollution, dust, and wind, which can harm lashes. Plus, coconut oil is super affordable and easy to find, so it’s worth reaching for this natural remedy instead of expensive chemical concoctions.
Why add castor oil and jojoba oil?
Like coconut oil, castor and jojoba oil have anti-bacterial properties, are rich in fatty acids, and are highly moisturizing. In addition, the combination of all three of these oils work together to create a balanced eyelash serum.

Yes, castor oil has the same effect on eye brows as it does on eyelashes.
