Eyelash curlers are pretty easy to use, but you still need to know what you’re doing in order to get satisfying results and avoid damaging your lashes. These are some of the most common eyelash curler mistakes to avoid.

Not Cleaning Your Curler

Much like our other makeup tools, every eyelash curler needs to be cleaned regularly in order to keep it bacteria free and prevent infections. Use alcohol or makeup wipes to clean and disinfect the curler each time you use it.

Curling Your Lashes Too Often

Curling your lashes every single day can cause a lot of damage and even make your lashes fall out. Make sure to give your lashes time to breathe and recover from time to time.

Clamping Down Too Hard

Applying too much pressure or clamping down the lashes for too long is a common mistake you should avoid because it can cause breakage. If you feel like you need to do this in order to curl your lashes, it may be time to think about buying a new eyelash curler.

Using a Curler After Applying Mascara

If we use a curler after applying mascara, our lashes can stick to the curler and some of them will inevitably be pulled out once we release the curler. That’s why it’s extremely important to curl the lashes before applying mascara.
