eyelash curlers

can anyone share their experience in purchasing an eyelash curler? are they all the same? is the $2.99 one just as good as the $18.99 one? are there things i should be looking for? for good or for worse?

thanks,

When I first saw this new gadget I didn't really trust it and I was right not too. Well, at least it took my a lot of patience and time and trying a lot of different types of . heated eyelash curlers to eventually find the right one for me.

There are many different models out there, they vary in shape, size and curling method.
1. One of the first ones on the market look very similar the traditional eyelash curler but with the heat functionality. It's not very comfortable and everyone remembers the pain when you first pinch your eyelid with that thing.
2. Then there are the ones like this one heated brush which perms the eyelashes and curls them through heat. Not only is this a more natural method to curl your eyelashes but it also has a more lasting effect. There are many different curles with different shapes which come with this method.

- The bulky ones are obviously not only heavy but also not very easy to carry around. They usually use bigger batteries as well.

- Other ones are smaller and pen shaped. These of course are lighter and can be taken everywhere as they are easy to store.

In this market end I have seen Boots selling some for £20. Other makes like ModelCo offer the same at a higher price. After long search I found Shiki-Beauty. Shiki-Beauty offers it for only £9.99 and it also comes with an inbuild heat protection. This prevents the heated eyelash curler from over heating.
