Eyelash curler

However, a simpler step to add to an eye makeup routine includes a more traditional, unheated eyelash curler.

An unheated curler that is curved for the natural shape of an individual's eye includes a plentiful enough pad to press against eyelashes.

Before using, an unheated curler can be heated for a short time with a hair dryer, but not to the extent to burn the delicate skin above the eyes.

Eyelash curlers were invented in the early 1900s from clamps and rubber pieces, and have been modified and popular ever since.

The heat from the clamp helps to set the curl and make it last longer.
