How It Works:
Zoria's formula uses a patented polypeptide combination that acts on multiple stages of the eyelash "life cycle." In the early stages of new lash growth, Zoria works to supplement and support the hair follicle to make a stronger and healthier "root" that has the best chance to support a thicker and longer eyelash. Once the lash has grown to it's full potential, Zoria polypeptides continue to repair and hold the lash at it's maximum length stage, trying to prolong the lifespan of the eyelash before it eventually falls out. Most lashes have a lifespan of 6-8 weeks, but Zoria's formula could extend this as long as 36 weeks according to their research (see above). If lashes are healthier at their roots, and stick around significantly longer, the results are noticeably thicker and longer lashes. Because of how Zoria works, the appearance of longer and fuller eyelashes would be expected to be visible as early as 3-4 weeks in, but may take as long as 36 weeks to get full results.
Our Review:
Dr. S took the Zoria Boost challenge, using the product every night before bed for 6 weeks.

My lashes felt a little longer after about 3-4 weeks of using Zoria, but honestly, it was hard to tell at first. I felt like my lashes appeared longer than normal when I wore mascara, but as far as without mascara, I really didn't notice a drastic improvement until I saw the before and after pictures side by side. Because Zoria works to reduce lash fall-out, maximum results would be apparent up to 9 months after staring to use the product. Continued use is key to getting maximum results.

I think Latisse probably has a bigger effect from the start, but I feel like Zoria is a more natural alternative to help with lash appearance. I loved that there were no side effects and no redness on my lid margins! I would definitely mention this to my patients as something that may work for them; I would just encourage them to give it a good few months to see results before giving up!

For best results, OCuSOFT recommends using the Zoria Boost Lash Intensifying Serum at night and the Zoria Boost Mascara during the day, so if I had shared the mascara with Dr. S she would have likely seen results even faster. Unfortunately, once I tried the mascara I was seriously hooked. The Zoria Boost Mascara is very easy to apply, with minimal eyelid irritation, and (a bonus!) it's very clump resistant. I've tried a lot of mascara in my day for sensitive eyes: Clinique, Lancome, Estee Lauder.... Everything I've used has caused irritation and discomfort if I apply it too close to the lid margin. The Zoria Boost Mascara is the best formula I've used to date for minimizing irritation, and the smooth application helps build fuller, longer lashes that are clump free. Definitely don't expect using the mascara alone to grow your eyelashes by much over the course of a month, but when used in combination with the Lash Intensifying Serum at night, you'll get great lash growth with your nightly applications and a very comfortable and easy to apply mascara product by day.
On the left is when I tried really, really hard in the past with my makeup application precision (actually this is from my engagement photo shoots, so probably the ultimate makeup effort picture that I could find). At the time I was using Clinique Lash Doubling Mascara, and as you can see, it's clumpy and chunky (but at the time I thought I looked great of course). On the right was just a few weekends ago, about a month into my Zoria Boost Mascara usage. Check out how long, thin, and natural my lashes look. No more clumpy, spidery looking lashes. Definitely it's a must have beauty product for me now!
