Best Eyelash Curlers in India

I had always been wary about trying this device on the eyes even though I was in dire need of some help to make my lashes look all fluttery and curled. I was scared of the scissor like metallic device seeming to almost pierce the eyes in order to work the lashes. It was when a friend showed me how simple it is to use and how it is not dangerous at all, that I tried it and was hooked onto it!

Eyelash curlers help curl out the eyelashes before you apply your mascara. They are usually metallic and come with a band of rubber that will hold your lashes between. Normally, it is the upper lashes that are curled using an eyelash curler.

How would you use it? Hold the eyelash curler just like your normal scissor. The ends of the eyelash curler are semi-circular, in the shape of your eye. Your eyelashes go into the gap between the bands of rubber. All you need to do is, open up the curler, hold the lower part of the curler on the lash line of your upper eyelid, and clamp it shut. Make sure only your eyelashes (and not your eyelid!) is caught between the curlers. Do not make it too tight. Hold it for thirty seconds and repeat on the other eye. It instantly opens up your eyes. Follow up with mascara for really thick looking eye lashes.

Now let us see some of the popular eyelash curlers in the market in India. They are all available online and also in beauty counters.
