  • Ohhhh, it’s such a tricky disease. Sending lots of love to you both ❤️

    These ideas are very kind of you, and clearly coming from a place of great care. I’d suggest, though, that it’s worth taking a step back first, and asking whether these procedures would make any difference in her habits. If “I need to do my makeup routine” is so strongly fixed in her, it may well stay that way regardless of any procedures or treatments.

    I.e. (depending on her specific progression) she may or may not be or remain capable of any or all of: a) remembering that she’s had the treatments; b) remembering that because she’s had the treatments she doesn’t need to do her lashes/brows any more; c) noticing in the mirror that her brows/lashes look different; d) putting two and two together to figure out that the difference she sees in her appearance means that she doesn’t need to do lashes/brows.

    So you may find even with treatments, she’ll still do (or want to do) her makeup routines regardless, and the current issues may not be resolved. So perhaps a harm-reduction modification like the tubing mascara or clear/nude products others have suggested is a better way to go.

    Wishing you both luck, whatever you go with ❤️
