How to curl lashes without eyelash curler

The good news is that you don’t need an expensive gadget to achieve long-lasting curl that makes your eyes stand out. Curl your eyelashes with a spoon, mascara, or all-natural aloe-vera gel. Using heat, regardless of the treatment, helps the curl linger longer.

Tip: Take a look at the curl you made. Repeat the technique for another thirty seconds if you want a more defined curl. This approach may also be used to curl your bottom lashes.
