9. Heat up your eyelash curler with a hairdryer
Now you don’t have to spend the extra money on a heated eyelash curler – simply heat it manually with a hairdryer before you curl your lashes. The heated eyelash curler will make your lashes look more curled. Just be careful when you hold the lash curler right after you’ve heated it.
