You Won’t Believe What $10 Serum Has Made My Eye Lashes Grow!

Do you remember that time when we were young, wild, and free to travel around without worry? 🤔


Back during that time, I was in Florida visiting my sister. We were on a walk when I noticed that her previously short eyelashes were now noticeably much longer! It wasn’t a new mascara, it wasn’t an expensive eyelash serum with a questionable ingredient list. She had been using cold pressed organic caster oil! 🙌

My beautiful sister lives in Florida. I love visiting her, we have so much fun when we are together!

Obviously, as soon as I got home I purchased it and started using it immediately!


While I haven’t noticed the drastic results on my lashes that she had, I’ve definitely noticed that my lashes, especially the bottom ones, seem longer and thicker. Let me I tell you though, this oil has made my already thick eyebrows grow like crazy! So crazy that I cannot apply it to my brows every night or they become too thick. When have you ever heard someone complaining about a serum working too well? 😲

In the past I’ve used a lot of eyelash serums with various results. The majority have caused some eye or skin irritation. I have been using Teddie organics caster oil for around 9 months and haven’t had any eye issues.
They even sent along a little bottle with a mascara wand. 10/10 recommend.

Earth has no sorrow that Heaven cannot heal.

Earth has no sorrow that Heaven cannot heal. 
~Thomas Moore

Do you ever wonder if you’ll go to Heaven when you die? Do you ever wonder where you’ll go after this life ends? 

I have a message of hope and life!  The gospel of Jesus Christ teaches us that Jesus died on the cross for our sins, that He was buried, and that He rose on the third day.  And because of His sacrificial work of redemption, all people can be saved!

In order to be saved, you must personally receive Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior.

How do I do this?

Realize you are guilty before God, but you can be forgiven!        

  • Romans 3:10 – “There is none righteous, no, not one.”
  • Romans 3:23 – “For all have sinned and come short of the glory of God.”
  • John 3:17 – Jesus came “that the world through Him might be saved.”
Romans 3:10 | lookingjoligood.blog

Realize there is a punishment for sin, but…Jesus took your place on the cross!

  • Romans 5:8 – “But God commendeth His love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.”
Romans 5:8 | lookingjoligood.blog

Realize you cannot earn your way to Heaven, but…God offers you the free gift of eternal life!

  • Ephesians 2:8-9 – “For by grace are ye saved…not of works…it is the gift of God.”
  • Romans 6:23 – “For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.”  (See also: Revelation 20:14; 21:8; I John 5:11-13)
Romans 6:23 | lookingjoligood.blog

Believe that He died for your sins, that He rose from the grave, and that He is the only way for salvation!

  • John 3:16 – “That whosoever believeth in Him should not perish, but have everlasting life.”

Receive the gift of eternal life by calling upon Him!

  • Romans 10:13 – “Whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.”
Romans 10:13 | lookingjoligood.blog

If you want to call upon the Lord for His salvation, pray this prayer to Him in humble sincerity:

“Dear Lord Jesus, I admit to You that I am a guilty sinner.  I am undeserving of Heaven and I am unable to save myself.  I believe you died on the cross to pay for my sins, and that you rose from the grave.  I am completely putting my trust in You to be my personal Savior.  Please forgive my sin and help me live a life that is pleasing to You.  Amen.”

It Is Well – Kristene DiMarco and Bethel Music – You Make Me Brave

Grander earth has quaked before
Moved by the sound of His voice
Seas that are shaken and stirred
Can be calmed and broken for my regard

And through it all, through it all
My eyes are on You
And through it all, through it all
It is well

And through it all, through it all
My eyes are on You
And it is well with me

And far be it from me to not believe
Even when my eyes can’t seeAnd this mountain that’s in front of me
Will be thrown into the midst of the sea

And through it all, through it all
My eyes are on You
And through it all, through it all
It is well

And through it all, through it all
My eyes are on You
And it is well
It is well

So let go my soul and trust in Him
The waves and wind still know His name
So let go my soul and trust in Him
The waves and wind still know His name
So let go my soul and trust in Him
The waves and wind still know His name
The waves and wind still know His name

And it is well with my soul
It is well with my soul
It is well with my soul
It is well 
It is well with my soul
Oh it is well with my soul (’cause of who you are)
Oh it is well with my soul
It is well with my soul
It is well 
It is well with my soul
It is well 
It is well with my soul
It is well 
It is well with my soul

And through it all, through it all
My eyes are on You
And through it all, through it all
It is well LordAnd through it all, through it all
My eyes are on You 
And it is well with me

Here is another tip for Tip Tuesday!

This week’s tip is about preventing your mascara from getting on your upper lids:Neutrogena Healthy Volume Mascara | lookingjoligood.wordpress.com

We all know about those crazy faces we make while applying mascara. Haha!

To prevent your newly applied wet mascara from smudging on your upper lids while applying mascara to your lower lashes,  simply apply mascara to your lower lashes first.

Seems like such a simple tip, but I have a feeling that a lot of people don’t think about doing it that way.

You will prevent a smudgy mess from happening because your wet top lashes won’t be brushing up against your upper lid leaving little black smudges on your beautiful eye shadow while you are applying mascara to your lower lashes.the balm mascara | lookingjoligood.wordpress.com

This week’s tip has to do with perfect under eye concealing!

Maybelline Instant Age Rewind | lookingjoligood.wordpress.com

It’s not just about finding the perfect product (I recommend the Instant Age Rewind by Maybelline), it is also a lot about technique.

This week’s tip:

Cancel out any creases in your under eye concealer before setting the area with powder.

After applying the concealer to your under eye area, take a minute to go back again and smooth out the concealer one more time before powdering.  You can use your finger, a brush, or a damp beauty sponge.  This seems like such a simple tip, but it will make a big difference in the look of the under eye area.  Keep in mind that powder will seal everything in, so smooth out your concealer before setting it.

Tip Tuesday #60

Here is another tip for Tip Tuesday!

Tip Tuesday: Make up tips and tricks every Tuesday | lookingjoligood.wordpress.com

Want your lashes to grow without expensive serums?

I have mentioned before that I have super straight sad lashes that do not stay curled when I apply regular mascara.  Due to this fact, whenever I wear mascara, I use waterproof mascara. You may have heard that wearing waterproof mascara is bad for your lashes and that it will make them dry and brittle.

Maybelline Great Lash Mascara | lookingjoligood.wordpress.com

Whenever I wear waterproof mascara, I remove it with coconut oil (this was tip #35).  After a little while of doing this, I noticed that instead of the waterproof mascara making my lashes becoming dry and brittle, my lashes were actually growing and becoming stronger from the coconut oil.

As you have probably guessed, this week’s tip is to apply coconut oil to your lashes to help strengthen and lengthen them.

Added bonus, I also use the coconut oil as an under eye serum and I think that it makes a big difference.

Keep in mind that a little bit goes a long way and if you use too much coconut oil you will get it into your eye and end up with blurred vision, not fun!
