It’s such a treat to get your make up done. Last time I had the pleasure was by Teri A of P3 Beauty. As she worked her way to my eyes, she handed me an eyelash curler because well mine are … well … pretty stick straight. Here’s the 411 on getting your lashes on their way to fluttery, flirty curliness.
- Step 1: Start when your lashes are clean, dry, and mascara-free. I find it best to do it after the rest of my make up has been done (foundation, eyeshadows, etc). Open the eyelash curler and, keeping your eyes open, place your upper lashes between the two sides.
- Step 2: Starting at the inner corner of your eye, careful! Don’t pinch your skin. Place the curler as close as possible to your eyelid as possible. When your lashes are between the pads, gently clamp the curler together.
- Step 3: Hold for ten seconds, and then move along the lash line, repeating until you have done your whole lash line.
- Step 4: Set with mascara. I like MAC and Maybelline. Here’s a great article on great mascara choices.
- Step 5: Flirt with your eyes darling, you look beautiful!
