According to the FDA, Age Intervention Eyelash is an “unapproved and misbranded drug”. In essence, the product is neither a cosmetic nor a drug, but falls in between both. Age Intervention Eyelash is marketed by its manufacturer, Jan Marini Skin research as being able to promote eyelash growth.

In addition, the product contains bimatoprost, an ingredient in drugs used to treat ocular pressure. It is believed that persons using the drug in addition to Age Intervention Eyelash may damage their optic nerve due to excessive levels of bimatoprost.
