Published in Eyelash Curling 2 mins read

To use an eyelash curler on someone else, you need to be gentle and precise, ensuring their safety and comfort. Based on the reference, here's a guide on how to do it:

Preparing to Curl Lashes

Before you begin, make sure you have the following:

  • A clean eyelash curler.
  • A comfortable and well-lit space.
  • The person you are curling eyelashes for seated and relaxed.

Step-by-Step Guide:

  1. Positioning:

    • Ask the person to look straight ahead or slightly down. This allows you to get a clear view of their lashes.
    • Gently open the curler and position it close to the base of their upper lash line. Make sure not to pinch the eyelid skin.
    • The curler should be close enough to the lash line but not on the skin.
  2. Clamping:

    • With the curler in position, gently close the clamp. Do not clamp down hard. You should use just enough pressure to curl without discomfort.
    • Hold this position for just a few seconds, as mentioned in the reference, "But just a few more seconds on this one. And we should. Be. Done."
  3. Releasing:

    • Carefully open the curler, and check the lash curl. If more curl is needed repeat the above steps.
    • If you notice any small stray lashes you can gently wipe them away, as said in the reference, "I have a couple little fleeks kind of just wipe that away."

Tips for a Safe and Effective Curl:

  • Gentle Pressure: Always apply light pressure when clamping the curler. Avoid pulling or jerking movements.
  • Multiple Curls: Instead of one forceful clamp, try using a few shorter, lighter clamps to achieve the desired curl.
  • Check Progress: Regularly check the progress of the curl to avoid over-curling or damaging the lashes.
  • Cleanliness: Clean the curler before and after each use to avoid infections.

Important Safety Notes

  • Never use a rusty or damaged eyelash curler.
  • Be mindful not to pinch the person’s eyelid skin.
  • Always use care and attention to detail to ensure the person’s safety and comfort.
