I normally don't do anything about my eye lashes unless I need go somewhere special or going out in the evening. The reason being my eye lashes are extremely straight and hard, just a pain in the neck to manage. Before, I need to apply a couple coats of mascara then curl them like 5 or 6 times afterwards just to make sure they are nice and curled, but I don't know how many times that I had pulled off my lashes. It's just impossible to make them the way I'd like them to be.
And now I have found a couple of tools that I think are absolute the best combo to combat stubborn eye lashes. I have been testing them out for the last 6 months and they work really well for me. Trust me if they work for me will probably work for you (but remember everyone is different, I said probably!) as I have the most straight and hard eye lashes in the whole wild world. Just hear me out!
There we go... These are for me the ultimate nemesis for treating stubborn straight eye lashes. They are so easy to get hold of and you are for sure have seem them before.
Now the eye lash curler is by Shu Uemura, it's the gold version. I am sure you have heard a lot about it by so many beauty gurus and yes it is fab. I can't tell you the exact reasons why I like it, it just works for me full stop. Maybe it's the curve I don't know, it just grabs every lash I have and "very gentle". It doesn't seem to pull off as many lashes as other eye lash curlers I have used in the past. So definitely a thumbs up for me!
The mini Sephora Heated eye Lash Curler is a life saver for me. I have the mini one because it is easy to travel with, but the normal size one is just as good. It's the same concept as a hair dryer but obviously for your lashes. I used to heat my eye lash curler with my hair dryer first then curl my lashes but I just can't be bothered anymore to be honest. This Sephora heated curler is just so much easier. Here are the steps of how I curl my eye lashes:
- Apply generous coats of mascara
- Wait for like 5 mins util the mascara's dried
- Turn the heated curler on and wait till the indicator at the back turns yellow then apply gently on eye lashes like when applying mascara
- Use my Shu Uemura curler straight after the heated curler for best results. Don't ever wait till eye lashes are cold.
E Wuala....

I know that I am not supposed to curl my lashes after applying mascara but this just works for me well. Do what works the best for you.
That's it, short and sweet. I hope you have enjoyed today's post and until next time....muahhhh!
