Latisse Helps Make-a-Wish Foundation

Latisse Comments (1)

Remember your childhood when you spotted a falling star and were supposed to make a quick wish?

How about Thanksgiving when somebody found the wish bone?

This one is new to us, but many children who found an eyelash on their cheek held the eye winker, blew on it and made a wish.

Yeah, we know, it sounds roundabout but we are coming to the point. And that is: eyelashes and wishes and their connection.

But first, we have to take a step back and refer you to our previous post about the new Latisse eyelash growth treatment and its FDA approval.

Then, proceeding on to our point again, Allergan, the makers of Latisse have started a new campaign to help the Make a Wish Foundation, the organization that helps wishes come true for children with life-threatening medical conditions.

Here’s the real deal: Allergan has ponied up $500,000, enlisted the aid of Brooke Shields and famed eyebrow specialist Anatasia Soare to make more of those wishes come true. Latisse plans on donating $5 for each person who signs up on their website between now and December 31, 2009, and hopes to reach a cool million bucks. Hey, that’s a lot of dreams come true! Did you know that a sick kid is granted a dream every 40 minutes?

Brooke -well known as a child activist – kicked things off,

Assisted by the eyelash blessed Debra Messing and Angie Harmon, the campaign will soon hit New York, Miami, Dallas, Minneapolis and San Francisco.

Latisse is the first and only eyelash enhancement preparation based on science.

The user dabs it right on the base of her upper eyelashes with a single use, disposable applicator. (More about Latisse.)

And we have a wish of our own that you can help make come true. No eye winkers needed! (But if you do find a dislodged eyelash, go ahead and blow on it while making your wish. Can’t hurt!)

Our wish: if you are interested in Latisse, kindly ask your physician or plastic surgeon about the substance’s side effects and if you could be one of the very, very few people for whom Latisse is not indicated.
