i started losing my eyebrows so time ago. the end half is almost non-existent. now my eye lashes are barely there. they are very short and stubby and thinned out. it is hard to put on mascara because there isn't much there to work with. they were never long or dark anyway. couldn't even hardly see them if i didn't wear mascara, especially the bottom lashes. i rarely wear mascara unless i am going out or to work so i don't think it is because i wore it to much and didn't wash it off. my eyes do get sore easily. they will feel sore like a sty feels but i don't have a sty and it isn't only in the corner of my eye. i think it is caused from getting dust or something in my eye. after this started i cut down on wearing mascara even more.

I have the same problems.....loss of eyebrows and eyelashes, skin is sore and itchy around eyes and ears. Often feels like something IN my eyes. Eyes teary much of the time. Itching eyes. Bumps on the head, in the hair.
I've had thousands of dollars of tests....nothing abnormal. If you want to email me, I'll discuss things and symptoms with you.

There are many sources that may cause eyelash thinning or even the total loss of lashes. Some of these is also allergy symptoms, chiefly an hypersensitive reaction to eye make-up. Extra contributors to eyelash loss would be using medicines, publicity to environmental toxins, hypothyroidism, eye surgery, negative weight-reduction plan or dietary deficiencies and trauma to the eye. Recommendations for ordinary regrowth: * diet A - promotes healthy dermis and hair. * vitamin B difficult - help avert loss of eyelashes. * Brewers Yeast - as a just right supply of additional B nutrients. Nevertheless they're going to commonly grow back in a couple of months.

I'm not any kind of health professional, but have you checked to see if you have a thyroid problem? My mother's eyebrows started falling out a few years ago, and her eyelashes were starting to thin out. Eventually, it turned out that she had a hypoactive thyroid gland - she had been tested for it many times before, but apparently they only ran the most common tests and completely missed it. It's apparently quite common in women. I looked it up on the internet and it sounds like this could definitely be something to look into.
I know that often being rough on your eyelashes - curling them, wearing waterproof mascara often, etc - can cause them to thin out. However, it doesn't sound like that's the problem. A thyroid problem wouldn't explain the soreness though - maybe an allergic reaction?

Are you allergic to the mascara? Try Allmay hypoallergenic mascara. every night rub your finger over vaseline and wipe on the lashes in an upward motion. I had an eye infection once and all my lashes fell out. I did this and when they grew back this acts like a conditioner.

This sounds very familiar. You should go to a dr you trust and have them due a CBC and specify you want all tests for your
thyroid and screening for sugar levels. If it is your thyroid, you
will be put on synthroid or the equivalent. If sugar levels, again,
treatable. Mascara should be replaced every 2-3 mos. as bacteria grows in the tube from contact with your eyelashes.

I have a friend that has a condition, I forget what its called, but he lost his eyebrows, lashes, then the hair on his head, then all over his body. I know its very rare, but I recommend consulting a dermatologist.

Maybe it's a medication you are taking? I would say ask your physician about it, as she/he will ask you more indepth questions.
