Lash Sensational Serum is formulated with arginine, a protein-building amino acid that improves blood flow to hair follicles, thereby promoting growth. It also includes vitamin B5, which creates a healthier hair follicle that grows stronger, more nourished hair. It's a combination that the brand says will give you thicker and fuller lashes in just one month.

Some shoppers are seeing results even sooner. "After about two weeks of using this growth serum my boyfriend asked me if I was wearing false eyelashes," one reviewer wrote. Another shopper said they saw similarly impressive results, writing "my lashes are so long that I was finally able to get a lash lift, and now I don't even need mascara." Lash Sensational Serum also outperforms competitor products that are three times the price, according to several of the reviewers.

Whether you're looking to amplify your lashes pre-mascara or ditch mascara entirely, shop Maybelline's $9 Lash Serum that thousands of five-star reviewers are obsessed with.
