Getting your lash back
Apr 14, 2017
Hopefully when you removed lash extensions, you did not damage the lash follicles.
Lashes can fall out when using lash conditioners, whether prestaglandin or prostagladin free formulation. It is a good idea to try a prostaglandin free formulation. There are several in the market now.
Can I Use Bimatoprost 0.03% Instead of Latisse?

Bimataprost and lash breakage
Apr 14, 2017
Both Alcon Bimataprost and Latisse use same active ingredient bimataprost. If you notice black contamination in the bottle, you should discard the product. As for lash breakage it is unlikely due to the active ingredient so more likely due to other ingredients.
