Putting Rogaine On EyeBrows to make them grow

posted on 01/28/2009 | read full

Question: I have an odd question- I heard that if I put Rogaine on my eyebrows it will help them grow in a little better- is that true or false?

 

Answer:

The short answer is-true- but the process will be smelly and messy and sort of expensive. Also Rogaine is not opthamologically tested so if it drips down and gets in your eyes it could irritate them- or worse cause discoloration or can even cause the pupils to darken. Not pretty.

Sincerely,

Who Needs A Facial?

question
Who needs a facial?

 

ANSWER
Dear Who, Who doesn't? The fact is, if you're alive, you've either got active oil glands, or a bunch of dead cells continually building up on your skin's surface, causing your complexion to look a combination of yellow (for the rancid oil) or gray (dead cells don't come in a variety of colors). Hmmm, yellow mixed with grey? Do you really have any clothes that go with that pasty pallor? A good facial leaves you looking as softly pink as the day you were born. Not much of a contest, is it?
