Super straight lashes

[happytobemrsg]

My lashes are longish but poker straight. I’ve had lash extensions in the past but they are expensive, damage my lashes & not really practical right now.

What’s the best way to get a long lasting curl? Do those traditional metal lash curlers work? Help!

Have you tried LVL?

It's a lash lift - you choose the level of lift and curl. It lasts for about six weeks.

Ive tried heated and metal curlers but none last. Wet mascara simply makes the curl drop out (waterproof is slightly better).

I do mine myself now using Diablo but there are plenty of other systems.

I use Benefit Roller Lash mascara and get complimented all the time on my lashes (which are blonde and straight without mascara, you can barely see them!).

@TheBullfinch ideally I didn’t want to go into a beauty salon. Trying to improve them at home if possible

@IrisW do you curl them first?

@happytobemrsg no, I don’t curl them at all, just a few coats of the mascara and I’m good to go.

I do have regular LVL but they last about 8 weeks for me. However during lockdown I have used THE FALSIES® LASH LIFT WASHABLE MASCARA EYE MAKEUP. Really does curl but if I want something a bit more dramatic (length wise) I finish off with Benefit Badgal mascara.

Amazon sell lash perming kits, the glues shit so get some proper glue in superdrug and don’t perm the very tip of the lash.
