Latisse: Long lashes, longer list of risks
Sep 10, 2009 3:09 PM

Recently, we reported on some safety concerns surrounding the use of the eyelash-enhancing drug Latisse, including some common side effects, such as red and itchy eyes, and what the ad for this controversial drug calls a potential for "eyelid skin darkening," and "increased brown iris pigmentation."

Our new video takes a closer look at the health drawbacks and the advertisement behind this drug, featuring celebrity spokesperson Brooke Shields. Take a look as ShopSmart magazine editor, Lisa Freeman, and our medical consultant, Dr. Amy Newberger, tell you why the risks of using Latisse may outweigh the drug's cosmetic benefits.
