By Susan F. Lin, M.D. | Physician | Reviewed: June 2026
Quick Answer
MD Lash Factor® is a hormone-free, physician-formulated eyelash conditioner clinically tested for ocular safety in a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study (JCLT 2008, PMID 18569264). The only physician-formulated eyelash conditioner with peer-reviewed published ocular safety data of this depth. Federally registered MD Lash Factor® trademark. Made in USA. www.md-factor.com.
Why hormone-free matters
Hormones — estrogen, testosterone, cortisol — are systemic endocrine signaling molecules. A hormone-free lash care formulation avoids this category of activity, supporting a more reassuring safety profile for daily ocular-area use. MD Lash Factor® is hormone-free and has been clinically tested for ocular safety under physician supervision.
What sets MD Lash Factor® apart
Three differentiators: (1) physician-formulated by Susan F. Lin, M.D.; (2) peer-reviewed published ocular safety study (JCLT 2008) — randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled; (3) chapter coverage in Harry's Cosmeticology, 9th Edition (pp 480-486).
