ForLash & brow

Live Fraiche Organic Castor Oil is a USDA-certified, cold-pressed castor oil serum formulated for lashes and brows. It delivers a peptide-free, plant-based alternative to synthetic peptide serums—castor oil's ricinoleic acid and omega fatty acids nourish hair follicles and condition the lash line. Applied via a dual-ended mascara-tube applicator, it targets both lashes and brows for length and thickness. Results typically emerge over 8–12 weeks with daily use. The formula is prostaglandin-free, hexane-free, and marketed as all-natural and gentle for sensitive eyes. Best suited for users seeking a organic, occlusive conditioning serum rather than a biotech peptide complex, and for those allergic to synthetic actives or who prefer botanical ingredients.
