Why do my eyelashes do this?! Help!

[Purplegrapejuicefan]

Very trivial problem but an everyday annoyance! My eyelashes curl back onto themselves, literally a U-shape, not a ‘nice’ curl. They’re actually quite long but because of their shape half of them disappear so look like I haven’t got any! I try straighten them each morning with an upside down eyelash curler but they just ping back on themselves as soon as I put mascara on.

Anyone got / had the same thing and got any ideas?? Any make up artist with any tips?!

Do you dye your lashes?

Try oil on your lashes - castor but olive oil worke too. Leave overnight & they should be straighter in the morning

@EatCrow no I dont…

Ah ok. I only asked because I do dye mine and for a few days afterwards they irritate the hell out of me. They separate and some lie sideways. I use Nivea cream to help soften them up. Thought it might help you.

You could have a lash lift, which is essentially a straightening treatment designed to make your lashes look longer. Look around for a local salon that does it__ - called a lash lift or LVL - should be around £30 and lasts around 6 weeks
