We all know that eyelashes can dramatically change your entire look. Whether you're into anime, superheroes, or just love a good makeup moment, having luscious, curled lashes can level up your game. And let's be honest, a great eye look can feel empowering! Let’s jump in!

When I first started experimenting with makeup, my biggest challenge was getting my eyelashes right. I used an old curly borrowed from my sister, and struggled and struggled and struggled more to get my eyelashes to have that oh so nice of a curl. I soon realized that the secret weapon to eye-popping beautiful eyelashes is one simple tool: a quality eyelash curler that actually works which I discovered later after ditching my sister's eyelash curler and buying and new curler. I’m currently using

by e.l.f and am happy with the results. And if you need a quality eyelash curler, here are three that I would recommend:

This curler has great grip and is strong for when you need that little extra

to help shade those lashes of yours. It’s a little pricier than the other two listed here, but well worth it!

You like Gold?! So do I. Well while this curler might not be real gold, it definitely has a golden look! Better more, this curler has a great contour to it for producing good curvature and volume.

This curler is good for all eye shapes and has a soft silicon pad which is great for gripping the lashes.

It’s easy to dismiss this tool as optional, but it’s as essential as a good mascara. Opt for a quality curler like any of the ones mentioned above, and at a cost less than a pumpkin spice latte from Starbucks you are surely to get your curly without breaking the bank!

Never curl your lashes with mascara on; it can cause them to stick to the curler and potentially break. Wash your face well and use a makeup remover or cleansing oil like this one from NYX

or this makeup remover and cleanser from mehron

Both on sale now at EyeBreakfast and each to get your face prep-ready for curly your eyelashes with success.

Place the eyelash curler at the base of your lashes and gently squeeze for 5 seconds. Move it to the middle and squeeze again, then go near the tip and do one final squeeze. This will give your lashes a beautiful, natural curve rather than a harsh angle.

After curling, apply a light coat of

to set the curl. If you're going for a more dramatic look, wait for the first coat to dry and apply a second layer.

Ok, so now that you got yourself a good new curly from EyeBreakast (you did add one to your cart, right ;), you might want to know how to maintain your curly so it stays clean and to ensure it remains effective and hygienic. I like to use a little bit of warm water and a gentle scrub with soap to remove any mascara that might still be on the curling pad.

Remember, practice makes perfect, and nice curls. Your lashes frame your eyes, and by taking the time to curl them, you give your entire face a lift. So, the next time you’re looking to be the star of your own story, or just want to give your eyes that extra pop before stepping out of the house to go meet up with a friend, make sure your eyelashes are ready for their close-up with these simple steps!
