Eyelashes can become dull looking when they are exposed to too many styling products, such as false eyelashes and mascara, according to "Make the Most of Your Eyes." Promoting long, healthy eyelashes is not difficult, according to "Office-Based Cosmetic Procedures and Techniques," but it does require that you care for your eyelashes daily.

Step 1

Avoid the use of mascara. According to "Make the Most of Your Eyes," mascara is drying to your eyelashes, causing them to be brittle.

Step 2

Take a daily multivitamin and eat a healthful diet each day. According to "Make the Most of Your Eyes," adequate nutrition is required for healthy eyes and eyelashes.

Step 3

Apply liquid vitamin E, which can be purchased at drug stores and health food stores, to your eyelashes daily. Use an eyelash brush to evenly distribute the vitamin E over your lashes. According to "Office-Based Cosmetic Procedures and Techniques," vitamin E is essential to healthy eyelashes.

Things You'll Need

  • Multivitamin
  • Liquid vitamin E
  • Eyelash brush
