How do you grow your eyelashes?

Hii I used to wear mascara on a regular basis and all of a suden my eyelashes just shrunk. I havent worn mascra for over a year abd a half now and they still wont grow back.
Does anyone know how to.make your eyelashes grow longer and thicker?
Ps. I have tried putting vaseline in them but i dont think its very helpful.

Buy an eyelash moisturiser or something. I used to pull my eyelashes out and they grew straight back.

I wouldn't, I've tried it before and my eyes really stung! Apparently it can really damage your eyes and if you put it on before you go to sleep you won't even notice :/

You could try lash extensions if you don't mind not going au naturel?

Long lashes can be very annoying though, especially in the outer corners where the upper and bottom ones clump together...arrgggh!
I heard baby oil works pretty good..never tried it though

No sorry. I was only suggesting it. I didn't use one, I was just saying that I used to pull mine out as a nervous habit and they grew straight back..

Drink a tablespoon of MSM with hot water and your eyelashes will grow like crazy! Only downfall is that all other parts of your body where hair grows (areas you may not want hair) will grow incredibly fast too.
Vaseline is good, I use it. Just apply a little bit with your fingers on your eyelashes every night before you go to sleep - although it works better when you apply it during the day as well. I use mascara too often so thats not the case for me, but it helps to keep them soft as well, which is a bonus.

MSM is sulfur, it's very good for you and does many wonderful things. If you google it, you'll see what I mean. I have posted a link below that will suit your needs. I have very long eyelashes due to MSM.

I put baby/ any other oil on my eyes every night (blessed to have long eye lashes), use it to remove the make up and I wear mascara quite a lot.
