Manicare Eyelash Curler Review

This is a must in any woman's make up bag! I've been buying these for years and they last for at least 5years. They are great because you can purchase the insert cushions when yours starts to waste away.

I have naturally straight lashes so I'm always looking for a way to plump these babies up and this was my first experience with an eyelash curler. Appearance wise this is a nice looking curler, simple design nothing that requires a degree to operate, put on lashes , clamp hold for 30 seconds that's it :)

For some reason I really struggled to get this positioned where I wanted I always seemed to pinch my skin or I couldn't quite get it close enough to my eyelash line - perhaps its just me and I didn't really know what I was doing but I didn't find these really worked for my eyes for some reason.

They did definitely provide my lashes with a bit of curl and did make a difference to my mascara routine and the finished look.

Overall all it did do an ok job but it just didn't work that well for me in terms of use.

I use this daily, with or without mascara afterwards. I thinks it does a great job. Sometimes it misses my outer lashes but i think that is just me being an egg. It curls well and lasts.

personally I don't use eyelash curlers on a daily basis but I found that you can usually get this one on sale for 5 dollars. expensive products aren't always the best!

this one doesn't have the little spring so its pretty easy to use and doesn't rip out your lashes.. especially if you are a first timer with eye lash curling, I did find that it doesn't last all day tho, maybe about hour / hour and a half..

Naturally I have incredibly straight lashes, it's only been after using lash serum for a period of time they have now achieved a slight wave yay. Although in the past I have completely neglected my Manicare Eyelash Curler as a result of it really not doing much for me, I had hoped with my newly-improved lashes I could finally put it to good use.

The Manicare curler is very basic in design, a straightforward metal eyelash curler with a removable rubber pad, that you apply close to your lashes and squeeze for about 30 seconds. Sounds simple enough right? Unfortunately almost every time I attempt to use it, I find myself pinching my delicate eye skin! I find the shape difficult to get close to my lashline without pinching my skin. Perhaps it's just the shape of my eyes, but I end up often holding it just slightly further down the lash. Either way my lashes never seem to achieve a nice, open curl, despite holding it for a minimum of 30 seconds. Sometimes I get a wonky, kinked lash look which is amplified by mascara, other times a slight wave which just wasn't worth the pain.

If someone more patient with naturally more wavy lashes wanted an affordable curler I may recommend it if nothing in a similar price range around, but I've now regulated mine firmly to the depths of my bathroom cupboard.

This eyelash curler gives me such a great defined open eyed curl, I find myself reaching for it each and everyday to make me eyes stand out more, I love long lashes and this gives me that even without mascara.

I love the soft rubber pads, I have never once pinched my eye lid and they come with spare black pads as well which is nice little bonus.

They are comfortable around the eye area and fingers, they are also easy to wipe clean as I like to clean them every so often as they are around the eye area you don't want contamination.

The down fall is the curl doesn't last all day long, I guess that what I am paying for but I have found the curls last longer if you hold the curler shut for 15-20 seconds then pump it for 5 times then apply your mascara to hold the curl in place.

Overall, this is perfect for everyday use, but if I wanted more dramatic night time eyelashes I would get a different type.

I purchased this eyelash curler in error as I thought it was the same as my old one - it wasn't. I really need to start paying more attention to these things.

This curler doesn't have a built in spring so does a pretty half pie job. The spring that you find in other curlers gives you that extra bit of pressure when curling your lashes to ensure you get the best curl and one that lasts a lot longer.

This is probably fine for beginners, but once you've tried one with a spring in it this one just doesn't cut the mustard!

I'd never apply mascara without giving my lashes a good curl and i absolutely love this curler.

It gently grasps all my lashes in one go, with a couple of squeezes and a 5-10 second hold, I'm left with crimp free, perfectly curled lashes that last all day. If you're stuck in the drug store lash curler rut, try these out cause they're simply amazing.

I got this Curler from a pharmacy as it was the cheapest one and i was low on cash thought i would try it out and was actually quite impressed, some of the cheaper Eyelash curlers can be very round and cause it to pinch my eye lids but this curler was right size and curled my lashes well. My lashes did not stick to it or break off so happy customer here especially as the price is good.

The best thing about this curler is it is great for people curling their lashes for the first time, as there is no way that you could rip your lashes, or screw up with these. That being said, they take a while to actually curl your lashes, because they're so foolproof. You have to hold for quite a while, and also do it about 4 or so times for it to work. Good to start out with, but if you already know your stuff, upgrade to a better quality curler for more effect. They also don't last very long, which kind of sucks, but it is to be expected with something so cheap.
