Abstract
An eyelash curler and method for curling eyelashes. The curler has an upper jaw for placement on top of the eyelashes and a lower jaw for placement under the eyelashes. The angle of the upper jaw to the handle is approximately 48.degree. allowing the curler to be positioned in contact with the cheek during use. The person holds the curler with two fingers on two finger grips on opposite sides of a sleeve and a thumb on the thumb grip at the bottom of a plunger. The curler is sighted in a mirror through an alignment aperture in the neck and the curler is moved toward the eyelashes while keeping the reflection of the pupil in the aperture until the first finger grip touches the upper cheek and the thumb grip touches the lower cheek. Once contact is made, the hand is maneuvered slightly about the finger grip until the upper jaw contacts the eyelid. The thumb grip is then squeezed toward the finger grips until the lower jaw butts against the upper jaw curling the eyelashes between them.
