I do not recommend this eyelash curler, I would much rather recommend the cheaper $2 one, as it works 10x better. This eyelash curler works, kinda, but its curling power is very weak. The shape is ok, but the top metal part is too thick to yield any sort of good curl. To make this work, you'd have to press the curler very hard, which is not very comfortable for the hands at all. The bad reviews are probably why elf seems to be discontinuing this product, which I hope they do.
