We all know you can basically go wrong by sticking to the classics when it comes to grooming tools, but in the case of eyelash curlers, a heated, enhanced version changes everything. Most common in stick form, these devices use a gentle inflow of heat from the roots to effortlessly lift and curl lashes.
But we should also pay attention to how to use this tool correctly. "Human skin can withstand a first-degree burn at 118 degrees Fahrenheit and a second-degree burn at 131 degrees Fahrenheit. Because the skin of the eyelid is so thin, it can be damaged more easily at lower temperatures," says Natasha Herz, clinical spokesperson for the American Academy of Ophthalmology.

Customer review:
"I haven’t used an eyelash curler in about 20 years. I used to have one of those guillotine type torture devices that leave a crimp in your eyelashes and often pluck a few out. Then I saw this heated thing. Like a tiny curling iron for your eyelashes? Not exactly. It turns out that all you do is sweep it against your eyelashes just like you would if you were applying mascara. It works great and quickly (let it heat up first), does not pull out my eyelashes, and leaves a very natural curl. I wish I had discovered this thing 10 years ago!" —tucker
