In the instructions for use, consumers do not find contraindications, but all because they are really absent. The only limitation may be a rare individual intolerance, which is quite easy to determine. To do this, you need to drop a little product on the skin of your hand and inspect the treated area after a few minutes. If during this time itching appears, and redness or swelling has formed on the skin, then it is better to avoid using the product. Otherwise, there is no reason to give up this amazing medicine.

True, despite the absence of contraindications, the disadvantages of this substance still exist:

To make your eyebrows soft, thick and expressive, you can use the simplest and most effective method - regularly apply the product to the desired area overnight. To do this, you can be guided by the following tips.

• Before use, it is necessary to thoroughly cleanse the skin in the area of ​​the eyebrows and dry well from excess moisture.
• For application, a cotton swab is suitable, a special brush for combing eyebrows, you can do with a cotton pad or apply the substance directly with your finger.
• For greater efficiency, it is recommended to heat the oil in a water bath to 40 degrees. In order not to burn the eyebrow area, it is better, after warming up, to check how hot the product is on the skin of the hands: there should be a feeling of gentle and pleasant warmth from the touch of the drops.

• When applying, it is better to use massage movements along the hairline from the nose to the temporal fossa, then the beneficial components will penetrate deep into the roots of the hairs, which will have a beneficial effect on the activation of hair follicles. You need to apply until the product is completely absorbed.
• If the eyebrows cannot boast of long hairs, then it is worth paying special attention to the rarest areas of the eyebrows.
• For preventive purposes, it is recommended to combine the drug with other oils. By mixing products, the result will be even more expressive. Especially popular among women who follow the beauty of the face is an eyebrow mask, for the manufacture of which burdock and usma oil are mixed in equal proportions and vitamin A is added. Castor, olive, almond and camphor oils are also considered effective additives.
• It is necessary to apply the product on the eyebrows daily, and then the effect can be assessed within two weeks. The eyebrows will become fuller and the hairs will be strengthened.

• In the morning, the remnants of the substance are easily washed off with cotton swabs soaked in makeup remover.
• The skin should be periodically given a break from the oil, so it is worth taking regular breaks from use. Some cosmetologists recommend starting with 10 minutes, then leaving it on the eyebrows for an hour and gradually moving on to applying it overnight. According to some experts, the brow area is more easily adapted to the components in this way.

It is more difficult to restore volume and health to eyelashes. In the case of bad eyebrows, they can be masked, tinted, plucked out unwanted hairs, or tattooed. With eyelashes, all these procedures are accompanied by complexity, in addition, the constant use of cosmetics negatively affects the growth of cilia, making them even less expressive without mascara. Extended eyelashes usually do not hold well on short hairs. Therefore, in the case of eyelashes, oil is especially important.

It should be noted that in this situation it will be much more difficult to achieve the effect. The hairs of the eyebrows and eyelashes have some difference in structure, so it is difficult for useful elements to penetrate deep into the roots of the latter.

Before using the eyelash product, you should be guided by the following rules:

• dip a special eyelash brush into a bottle of oil and comb the eyelashes along the entire length with it;
• remove excess drops of the drug with a paper napkin;
• leave the substance overnight;
• in the morning, clean the remaining oil traces with a regular make-up remover;
• if swelling is noticed in the morning, then it is enough to apply the product only for an hour once a day;
• the usually prescribed course of treatment is 1 month, the break between courses is two weeks;
• some women make lotions from this product, for which they apply the product to a cotton pad and apply it to the eyes, and after an hour they wash the eyelashes and eyes.

Most of the reviews about usma oil as a cosmetic for eyebrows and eyelashes are positive. Women notice a fairly quick result when caring for their eyebrows, which have begun to grow thickly and intensively. Some ladies even have to adjust their shape more often. The girls speak positively about the convenience of the bottle. The product can be dispensed clearly in droplets thanks to a convenient dispenser with a thin spout. In addition, some oils are sold already complete with fiber brushes, which also pleases customers.

It is stated that the oil does not sting the eyes, and users confirm this. For use on the eyelashes, some women prefer to pour the product into an empty washed mascara bottle - in their opinion, this is more convenient. Some consumers note that they did not notice the increased growth of hairs, but paid attention to the appearance of new ones. Of the minuses, the girls indicate the difficulty of flushing. To completely remove oil residues from your eyebrows in the morning, you need to use expensive products. Also, among the minuses, the price of the product stands out. However, most women still do not mind spending money to achieve the effect of expressive and healthy eyebrows.
