Help with growing eyelashes

I’ve been using the sky high maybelline waterproof mascara for around a year— it was great for lengthening my lashes but was very very heavy and also super hard to remove properly, and over time i noticed my lashes had gotten way thinner and more sparse. I’ve been trying to grow my lashes out and get them to be super thick for a while and have tried almost everything (not super consistently but the effort was there). I’ve done sm research on how to grow them and have tried The Ordinary lash serum, Grande lash serum, Castor oil (didn’t try this one out for a long period of time though) , Vaseline and currently im trying out Australia Lash Therapy.

I feel like I’ve not seen much difference in growth, and the only thing i feel I’ve noticed is while using Vaseline my lashes looked a bit thicker but that’s about it. Grande Lash serum did help with growth but it gave me horrible under eye pigmentation so i had to stop, and i recently got Australia Lash Therapy but it causes irritation if I put too much and I haven’t seen any result so far.

I NEED to grow my eyelashes and get them thick, it’s so important to me as silly as it sounds 😭 im very heavy on mascara and not having big lashes makes me feel incomplete. Can anyone suggest an ACTUALLY reliable and good way to grow and thicken them? Please help 🙏
