Why will my bloody eyelashes not curl?

They point forward. straight ahead. Not up even a tiny bit.

I bought eyelash curlers. They did nothing. I used a hairdryer on the eyelash curlers as I read a top that heat helps the curl. Nothing.

I tried curlers then mascara. No.

Mascara then curlers. Nope.

Is there anything I can do or do I just have to accept forward facing eyelashes?

Get a lash lift. Can be pricey but worth it - I pay £40 every two months, and my eyelashes naturally curl downwards! So with straight lashes might last even longer.

Thanks. Never heard of that. I googled and found some kits. I'll give that a try. Fingers crossed!

Mine are exactly the same. Not all eyelash curlers will curl mine, they only seem to respond to expensive ones 🙄 I used to love Shu Uemura but they stopped selling in the UK, so now I use Suratt ones. MAC come close too.
I have to use a waterproof mascara to hold the curl, again not all waterproof mascaras are equal in this respect - the best I've found at the moment is Beauty Pie. I may try their eyelash curlers next time I order the mascara as they get good reviews and come with five refill rubber pads, which are critical in getting a good curl.

I curl mine each morning using just my ring finger and a thumb, they hold for the day....
