Please note: Talika Lipocils Expert contains St John's Wort - listed as its scientific name Hypericum Perforatum Extract. Whilst this product is applied topically (on the skin) and in small amounts, St. John’s Wort is known to interact with certain chemotherapy drugs if taken orally. Whilst many cancer patients use Talika products, always check with your oncologist to ensure they are comfortable with you using a botanical complex containing this ingredient during your specific treatment.
Talika Lipocils Expert is a unique treatment that doesn't just act on eyelash growth, but also on the lashes’ curve and natural pigmentation.
Containing the famous Talika Mythical Botanical Complex (witch hazel, apple, nettle, horse chestnut and St. John's wort), this natural formula encourages growth, strengthening and natural curling of lashes whilst silk proteins give the appearance of fuller and longer lashes from the very first use.With the addition of Coleus forskohlii for the expert formula, lashes also become naturally darker due to stimulated melanin synthesis meaning many users no longer feel the need to wear mascara or false lashes.
Key Considerations for Chemo Patients:
-
St. John’s Wort: Talika Lipocils contains St. John’s Wort. While it is applied topically (on the skin) and in small amounts, St. John’s Wort is known to interact with certain chemotherapy drugs if taken orally. Always check with your oncologist to ensure they are comfortable with you using a botanical complex containing this ingredient during your specific treatment.
-
Infection Risk: If your white blood cell count is very low (neutropenia), your doctors may advise against applying anything to your lash line to avoid the risk of a minor eye infection.
-
Morning & night, as a 28-day treatment, repeated every three months.
Apply to the base of the lashes using the foam tip, then along the entire length of the lashes, from the roots to the ends.Starting During Treatment (Prevention)
Some patients choose to start Talika Lipocils Expert at the very beginning of their chemotherapy cycle.
-
The Goal: To strengthen the hair follicle and keep the lashes in the 'growth phase' for as long as possible.
-
Patient Feedback: Some users report that starting early helped them retain a 'scaffold' of lashes, so they never went completely bare, even if the lashes thinned.
-
Note on Sensitivity: Chemotherapy can make your skin and eyes much more sensitive. Talika is generally considered gentle, but you should always perform a patch test on a small area of skin first.
Starting After Treatment (Regrowth)
Many medical professionals suggest waiting until 2 to 4 weeks after your final treatment to start a growth serum.
-
The Goal: To jumpstart the follicles once the chemotherapy drugs have cleared your system.
-
Why wait? Chemotherapy targets rapidly dividing cells (like hair). Some experts believe using a growth stimulator while the chemo is actively attacking those same cells can be counter-productive or simply less effective.
-
Effectiveness: Serums are often more effective after treatment has finished, as they help the new lashes come in thicker and more quickly than they might on their own.

Please note: Talika Lipocils Expert contains St John's Wort - listed as its scientific name Hypericum Perforatum Extract.
Taking St. John's wort supplements orally, can interact with certain chemotherapy treatments which can affect liver enzymes (especially CYP3A4) and reduce the effectiveness of certain chemotherapy drugs and other medications.
With an eyelash serum, the St. John's wort is applied topically in a very small amount around the lashes. Systemic absorption is expected to be much lower than with oral supplements, and I'm not aware of evidence showing that Talika's lash serum causes the same drug-interaction problems seen with oral St. John's wort products.
Many cancer patients have recommended the Talika range of products to us and believe that using the Talika products has helped them to keep their eyelashes and eyebrows during chemotherapy treatment.

"When I started chemotherapy I would have been more upset if I lost my "eye hair" as well as the hair on my head. On the recommendation of another cancer patient I tried the Talika products, both the Eyebrow Lipocil and Lipocils for the lashes. I began using them at the start of chemo. I did lose some hairs in the brows and lashes but am happy to say I kept enough to prevent looking like an alien. I am still using them post-chemo and they are filling in nicely now. The Eyebrow Lipocils is a very easy product to use but the Lipocils Expert for lashes is slightly trickier. Whether or not it was these products that helped me keep most of my brows and lashes during chemo I could not swear but if I ever go back on chemo I will certainly invest in them again just to be sure."

"This is a great product. I lost all hair due to Chemo and since using this they hairs have come back longer that before!!"

"After my hair grew back following chemo, my previously luscious lashes came back spikes, sparse and nowhere near as long as before. After just a month of using this product I could really see a difference, and after three months they were as good as they were before all my treatment."

"Like the Eyebrow Lipocils I was recommended this product by a fellow cancer patient at my hospital who kept her eyehair during chemo. Well I was happy with the result of using this product. My eyebrows were sparse to begin with but using this I hardly lost any more. Keeping my eyehair was important because I lost my head hair. Since being off chemo my lashes look even better than they did before chemo. I will continue to use this product indefinitely. One thing I should say is it is not as easy to apply as the Eyebrow Lipocil because the sponge tip is at the top of the wand and makes it a bit awkard to use the wand, but still worth it."
Talika is an innovative, French beauty company. In 1948, Danielle Roches, an ophthalmologic nurse in the Paris Hospitals, was treating burn victims from World War II. As Paris experienced a shortage of medicines, Danielle formulated a plant-based balm to treat injured people with burns to the eyes and she observed an unexpected side effect: in addition to healing her patients' burns, her herbal cream stimulated the growth of their eyelashes and eyebrows in a spectacular way.
After 30 days of treatment, eyelash growth is stimulated: the eyelashes gain 36% in length (average +2,1 mm *), their pigmentation is naturally darker (+ 50%), their curvature increased **.
* Clinical test, 30 subjects, 30 days

There is an original Talika Lipocils Eyelash Growth Serum and a Talika Lipocils 'Expert' Eyelash Growth Serum.
Both products contain the same Talika Mythical Plant Complex (witch hazel, apple, nettle, horse chestnut, St. John's wort) which stimulates the growth of eyelashes, but the Expert products also contain:
-
Coleus forskohlii which stimulates the synthesis of melanin in the eyelash to intensify its natural pigmentation.
-
Peptide Expert which has an anti-aging effect. It improves the quality of the ciliary bulb to strengthen the anchoring of the eyelash and slow down its fall.
-
Silk proteins which instantly sheath and curl the eyelash.
In short, the Talika Lipocils 'Expert' contains a pigment enhancer which adds colour to your eyelashes. The Expert product also has a foam tip which enables more precise application at the root of the lashes whereas the original Talika Lipocils Eyelash Growth Serum (non expert) just has a mascara type brush.
