How to Curl Short Eyelashes

Curl short eyelashes with an eyelash curler.

Not everyone is born with long, luscious eyelashes. And as we age, our eyelashes may not appear as thick or as long as they did when we were younger. Constant picking, makeup and not enough vitamin ingestion can leave our lashes looking short and sparse. Fortunately, curling short lashes help make them look longer. It may seem like a daunting task, but with the proper tools and procedures, your eyelashes can appear curlier and fuller, thus making your eyes stand out.

Things You'll Need

• Disinfectant wipes
• Eyelash curler
• Towel

Instructions

1. Wipe the eyelash curler with a disinfectant wipe to remove bacteria. Allow the disinfectant to evaporate on the eyelash curler for two to three minutes.

2. Set the eyelash curler under warm running water for 10 seconds to heat the curler. Remove the eyelash curler from the running water and dry with a towel.

3. Place the eyelash curler so the eyelashes stick through the edges. Avoid placing the eyelash curler too far back on short lashes as you could catch your eyelid when squeezing shut the curler.

4. Squeeze the eyelash curler shut for five seconds, then release. Examine the lashes and repeat if not curled adequately.

5. Apply mascara if desired to the curled lashes.
