Nu Colour Lash + Brow Serum (South Africa)

For Johannesburg Professionals Who've Outgrown the Microblading Habit

Whether your brows never fully recovered from early-2000s over-threading sessions at a Sandton salon, or your lashes have thinned after years of heavy kajal and daily mascara — the Nu Colour Lash + Brow Serum offers a non-invasive, nightly alternative. Applied with a precision applicator along the lash line and brow area, its peptide complex works with your natural hair growth cycle to support visibly fuller, denser lashes and brows across 6–8 weeks. No extensions, no microblading appointments, no prescription required. Suitable for all skin tones and demographics across South Africa — from Durban to Cape Town to Pretoria.

Who It's For

Best Suited For

• Lashes thinned by daily mascara use, eyelash curlers, or years of extension fills
• Brows that have never fully recovered from over-plucking or threading
• Anyone across Fitzpatrick II–VI seeking a peptide-based serum alternative to prostaglandin-containing formulas
• Those wanting to reduce dependence on false lashes or microblading top-ups
• Contact lens wearers looking for a serum compatible with their routine

Less Suited For

• Anyone seeking a medically licensed prescription lash-growth treatment — consult a SAHPRA-registered healthcare professional
• Those with active eye infections, irritated lash lines, or recent eye surgery
• Anyone expecting results without consistent nightly application over 6–8 weeks minimum

Pairs Well With

• A nightly skincare routine — apply after cleansing, before heavier eye creams
• Reduced mascara use during the treatment phase to minimise mechanical breakage

What Makes Nu Colour Lash + Brow Serum Different

The formulation centres on two pillars: a Peptide Complex that supports healthy follicle conditions along the lash line and brow area, and Conditioning Agents that strengthen existing lashes and brows to reduce breakage. The precision applicator makes nightly application accurate and controlled, minimising product wastage and contact with the eye itself.

Unlike volumising mascaras or brow-tinting pencils — which create the illusion of fullness cosmetically — this serum works beneath the surface over time, with a progressive timeline: reduced breakage observable at 2–4 weeks, visible fullness at 6–8 weeks, and maximum density potential at 12 weeks of consistent use. The non-invasive format suits South Africans who want to avoid the recurring cost and upkeep of salon-based lash or brow services, particularly relevant during periods of load shedding when beauty salon access may be disrupted.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I order the Nu Colour Lash + Brow Serum in South Africa, and how long will delivery take?

Order directly from nubestskin.com/za. Standard shipping is R99, with free delivery on orders over R1,999. Delivery typically takes 3–7 business days to major metros including Johannesburg, Cape Town, Durban, and Pretoria. Remote or rural areas may take slightly longer.

How long before I see fuller lashes and brows?

Most users notice reduced breakage and strengthened existing hairs within 2–4 weeks. Visible fullness typically becomes apparent at 6–8 weeks of consistent nightly use. Maximum density results are generally observed around the 12-week mark. Continuing use helps maintain results.

Is this serum safe for contact lens wearers?

Yes. Apply the serum to the outer lash line only — not to the waterline or directly into the eye. Allow the product to dry fully before inserting contact lenses. If any irritation occurs, discontinue use and consult an eye care professional.

Can I use the Nu Colour Lash + Brow Serum on both lashes and brows with the same applicator?

Yes — the precision applicator is designed for dual use across both the lash line and brow area. Apply to lashes first, then brows, using controlled strokes to avoid product contact with the eye itself.

Is this serum suitable for darker skin tones and those of African or South Asian descent?

Completely. The Nu Colour Lash + Brow Serum is a topical peptide treatment that supports the hair growth cycle at the follicle level, making it appropriate for all Fitzpatrick skin types (II–VI). There are no skin-tone-specific contraindications. Lash and brow thinning affects people across all demographics equally.

Does this serum contain prostaglandins or prostaglandin analogues?

The formulation is peptide-based and relies on a peptide complex and conditioning agents rather than prostaglandin-derived actives. Prostaglandin analogues (found in some prescription and over-the-counter lash serums) can cause side effects including iris darkening in lighter eyes. If you have specific concerns, consult a SAHPRA-registered ophthalmologist or dermatologist.

Can I still wear mascara while using this serum?

Yes, though minimising daily mascara use — especially waterproof formulas requiring vigorous removal — during the treatment phase can help reduce mechanical breakage and allow the serum to work more effectively. Apply the serum at night after thorough makeup removal.

How does this serum compare to microblading or lash extensions in South Africa?

Microblading and lash extensions are salon-based cosmetic procedures that require ongoing appointments, can be costly over time, and carry their own maintenance demands. The Nu Colour Lash + Brow Serum is a daily at-home treatment that supports your natural lash and brow growth over time — a non-invasive option that works independently of salon access, which matters during load shedding or tight schedules.
