If you put olive oil on your eyelashes, would it damage them?

Not sure: I honestly don't know. If I had to guess, though, I'd say "no". Luckily, the human body is resistant to quite a bit. We are constantly exposed to things like water, Sun, and even oils. There is a natural oil on our faces and bodies. Your eyelashes are exposed to it all the time, with no issues. Olive oil should be fine. Why would your lashes be exposed to it?
