Choosing the Right Eyelash Curler
It is so important to choose the right eyelash circle for your specific eye shape. Not all makeup products or tools are one -size-fits-all. It is important to know your eye shape because it helps you find the most suitable lash curler for you. All lash curlers are made with different curves. If your eyes are rounder, you should choose a lash curler that has a stronger curve. If you have eyes that are more almond shaped or you have monolids, you should find a lash curler that has a softer curve. Choosing the most suitable eyelash curler is important so that you can get the most optimal results.
Prep and Check Eyelash Curler
Before curling your eyelashes, ensure that your lashes are clean first. You can brush the lashes using a spoolie to separate the hairs. Additionally, check whether the eyelash curler is in good shape before using. The eyelash curler should have a cushion pad to provide a buffer to your lash line. To get your eyelash curler ready, warm up the tool by dipping it in warm water or using a hairdryer to blow directly on it for a minute. Just ensure that it is not too hot for you to hold the lash curler. When it is warm, it provides the best kind of curls for your lashes. It is like a curling iron for your hair, your lashes will be more curled and the curls will stay longer.
Position Eyelash Curler Properly
Now you are ready to start curling your lashes. Keep your eyes half open or you can choose to look down. Hold the lash curler to your lashes and place it at the base of your lash line. Do hold the tool close to the lashes without grabbing any skin. Look down at the mirror to readjust if needed.
Pulse Eyelash Curler
Once you found the best position, clamp down on the curler for about five to ten seconds with purses. Make sure that you are not pinching any skin because that would hurt. Do not try to squeeze so hard, being gentle is better. Do curls two parts of your lashes, the base and the tip of the lashes because curling the base only would give you an L-shape curl.
Apply False Eyelashes
To spice it up a little, add some false eyelashes to it! You can help your natural lashes to blend into the false eyelashes by ruling the base of your natural lashes first then adding mascara to it before wearing false eyelashes. You can add on a nice thick black eyeliner to conceal the band of the false eyelashes.
