Re: Container has cleared customs
Have you tried to have them dyed here? I used to have mine done in the UK...sometimes even bought the DIY dye from Boots. I couldn't find anywhere to do eyelash tinting in my area...although I'm off to Toronto next week and they do it there.

Re: Container has cleared customs
I went to a salon the other day to pick up a brochure for treatments, but haven't read it yet. Stopped when I saw the bit where they said 'arrive at least 30 minutes early for each appointment so you can fill out a questionaire ... '

No, not yet. Don't tell me they don't dye over here?

LOL that will be to cover their asses for liability in case they file a nail too short.

Lots of nail places and skin spas but they don't offer the same things as in the UK.

I've found 2 places that do pretty much everything I could get in the UK, which has pleased me no end! Took some finding though - and recommendations from locals

They do eyebrow colouring here but I think they banned the lash colour as a couple of people died!!!!! You can buy the eyebrow one over the counter too. I am sure there are lash colourers to be found, just not too many!

Re: Container has cleared customs
I found this:
In order to retain color on eyelashes or eyebrows, many people consider permanent eyelash dyes. In some parts of the world this is an acceptable practice, and even in the United States of America, where the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) does not approve the use of eyelash and eyebrow dyes, there are salons that offer these services. However, these salons are in violation of the warning issued in the 1938 Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act. This is a warning that stemmed from two cases of permanent eyelash and eyebrow dye: one that resulted in blindness and one that resulted in death in the early 1930s.
For more than 70 years the risks and dangers associated with trying to enhance one’s beauty with permanent eyelash have been known. The main problem is that most of these dyes are made using the same ingredients that are used in hair dyes. Some salons use regular hair dyes to provide eyelash and eyebrow dying. Hair dye boxes carry explicit warnings to keep the chemicals and the dye away from the eyes. This is because the ingredients in hair dye are very harmful to the eyes. When used as permanent eyelash and eyebrow dye, however, these chemicals are placed almost directly on the eye, and can cause serious injury and lasting damage.

That's my outlook on it anyway!
