Hi fellow RL users,
I bought RL from an ebay seller with over 400 feedback, and 100% of them is positive. However she was selling her RL at about $89 a tube if I remember correctly. When I emailed her and asked where she got it from, she said she got it from Athena. The item was new and sealed.
When I got the RL, it came in the blue RL box with an insert. It looked very authentic. Then the tube itself was heavy and all sealed up in a pretty heavy duty plastic.
So do you think I got the real deal? Did you all find that your RL packaging and seal were the same as what I described? Where did you buy yours from?
I so hope I've been using the real one. I have used it since Jan 4, and while it does look like my lashes are longer looking from the side, it's hard to tell looking straight at myself in the mirror. The length has NOT doubled or anything like that, but maybe it's still too early?
Thanks all.

| I have no idea the RL you got is authentic or no but I am always wary of such great deals esp. on ebay. I hope its real then we all can benefit from it. |

| I got mine from www.revitalash.com. It was sealed when I first got it. I haven't seen much results.. It's been 4 weeks also. My eyelashes have been falling out rather a lot. But I see a lot of new ones sprouting also! Results vary from indivuals. Some may see results as early as 2-3 weeks.. others can take up to 9-12 weeks.. |

Poohlisey, was the plastic that sealed your RL tube rather thick? I remember mine was a bit thicker than some other plastic seal I dealt with for other beauty products. So it made it look more authentic. Do you recall if the plastic seal was also thick on yours? |

Yup it was thick. If you cut it with a scissor the sides would be sharp.. Not like most plastic seals. If you get what I mean!  |

| Also.. Maybe you can tell if it's real or not is by looking at the blue box. On top there's a batch number. |

| I bought JM on ebay had great results., I bought revitalash too.Just deal with "beauty sellers" who are power sellers with strong feedback, they dont want to risk their reputation. |

I brought a tube of RL from OCMedSpa via Amazon. It came in the blue box with insert & a thick seal around the tube as you described. I've had good results so far. I recently bought another tube, except through Ebay this time (to save a few bucks  ). The seller had over 2000 feedback 100%. I just got it and noticed everything was the same except that the lettering on that tube is blue whereas my other tube has black lettering on it...hummm |

My tube has blue lettering too. But if the box and actual product look absolutely legit, I do not see why you think you have a fake?
People can obtain these kinds of things through promotions, through wholesale, etc...
I wouldn't be worried.

| OH gosh, i bought the $88 tubes too. They were kind of paranoid about competitors trying to sabatoge them because of their low price. i got 2 so I hope they're authentic! My JM just shipped but since it's the new formula, i thought i'd get the revitalash just to be sure. |

| I feel better now that others have gotten tubes with blue lettering. I guess Revitalash must have changed their mind and change the tube color at some point. |

Yup, my tube got blue lettering, too, and the tube is heavy. I feel better now knowing that everyone else's seal was a thick plastic, too. I got paranoid because after using it for 4 weeks and a half, it seems my lashes grew just a little, nothing phenomenal like everyone else was saying. I don't have any black stubs waiting to grow either.
Does anyone use it both morning and night? I use it only at night, but I also use the SAS KGF for brows and Ardell, too, hoping to accelerate results. I hope I am not making it worse by using additional products. |

| Get this: I now use Jm at night and RL in the morning. I also use ardell one night and ecrinal the next night.If this combo doesnt work nothing does...so far I am happy, the lashes towards the end of my upper lids tend to be the longest. |

Now that you mentioned it, at the corner of my upper left lid where the lashes were only 3 mm before I started using RL, now they have caught up with the rest of them. I was going to use them as a reference point to compare how my natural lashes used to be so short. This morning I was actually thinking I'd have to trim them down since they're growing too long. I don't need the corner lashes to be long for crying out loud. LOL Now the rest just have to catch up! |

| Yes my corner lashes are so long and they point down I was thinking of trimming them down but now I think I will do the lash perm and see what the overall effect will be. |

I started JM Mid Nov 2006. I started the RL last week, I have been using ecrinal and ardel for several weeks too. I will probably stimulate the follicle so much it might go into shock and just drop out...I hope not ..geee I hope I am not over the top with all this stuff..I am such plastic surgery/beauty addict  someone help me and get me into therapy!  |

Momtwin, when did you start using your RL? I started mine on Jan 4. I think you are as anxious to see results like me based on your posts. |

As long as YOU are happy, AND you're not hurting anybody, you don't need therapy. |
