Curling your lashes creates the perfect illusion that you have curly, to-die-for eyelashes (even if they’re short and stumpy like mine!). Eyelash curlers basically act as a push up bra for your lashes, they lift your whole eye area. When mascara is applied it accentuates your new curly lashes.
These are just some tips that I have found useful. Everyone has their own makeup style and what works best for them, embrace your own style!
