The Eyelash Curler is Your Friend

Although it looks like a little bit like a torture device, the eyelash curler is actually your friend. Using it before mascara application is a simple way to make your lashes and eyes look great!

Start with clean, dry lashes. While your eye makeup should already be in place, you should not have already applied mascara.

Looking straight into the mirror, open the eyelash curler and place it over the eye, placing your eyelashes are in between the two rubber or silicone eyelash pads. You can leave your eye open, or you may choose to close it, whichever is most comfortable for you. You will get a closer curl by leaving your eye open.

Make sure the curler is as close to the base of the lash, by the eyelid, as possible.

Without using a lot of pressure, gently close the curler at the base of the lash. Be as light as possible. Once you feel that you are not pinching any skin, apply more pressure, making sure to keep the pressure firm, but gentle.

Hold the curler in the center of the lash, and gently apply pressure again, just as you did in the previous step.

Repeat with the other eye. Add a coat of your favorite mascara.

Wasn't that easy? Fabulous looking lashes are now yours!
