Heated eyelash curlers help to hold the curl longer whereas normal ones don't. But by running a normal eyelash curler under warm water or heating it up with a hair dryer, you can have the same affect. Just be careful not to heat it up too much or you will burn yourself.

The heat will help to give you a more obvious curl. I quite often heat mine under a hair dryer (but you’ve got to be really careful not to heat up too much!)

Then gently press them onto your eyelashes before you apply any Mascara (as if you curl after Mascara it can break your lashes)

Heated eyelashes are a more safer way to do this – but they’re a lot more expensive!

If you want to persevere with regular eyelash curlers, just try gently pressing them three times – this should help maximise your curl!

just think about it in the terms of a curling iron to your hair. it is very damaging, and unlike hair, eyelashes don't grow back naturally.

The heat helps to make the curl last longer, but isn't the best for your lashes because it can make them dry and brittle (like a flat iron for hair). You can heat a normal curler by running it under hot water for a few seconds, and it will have the same effect (curl lasts longer). Make sure to test it on your arm first in case you burn your eyelid.
