Panasonic Heated Eyelash Curler Comb, Battery Powered, for Natural, Long-Lasting Lift, No Pinching/Crimping - EH2351AC

I have thin-to-average lashes, medium to long length, quite straight. At first I didn't get much of a result with this product but after a little experimenting, found it is now my favorite beauty tool. Here's the way to achieve curled lashes (works with or without mascara, but using mascara - even a gel tint - will help retain the curl). Start at section of lashes closest to your nose. Apply the heated coils to your lashes from underneath, starting quite near the lid margin. Sweep the wand toward lash edge while pressing up AND ROTATING the wand slightly, so that you're sort of curling/pulling the middle/ends of your lashes back toward your top eyelid. You will have rotated the wand about 130 degrees at the end: at the start, the color indicator is facing nearly downward; at the end, the indicator should be turned almost toward your eyebrows. Hold there for a second or 2 to let the lashes cool/set in that position. Repeat at the middle and outside sections of lashes. If you're using mascara, it will remove some (it's GREAT at removing excess/clumps). If you find that you want a more dramatic look or that your lash tips don't have enough mascara, just wait a minute and apply a little more mascara. This time, apply the mascara while your eyelid is about half closed, and pull the mascara wand up, so you're maintaining/enhancing the curl. NOTE: some people may find that the coils are too hot at full strength - if so, just learn where your comfort zone is and once the wand reaches that temperature (use the color indicator), switch it off briefly and back on during the process to maintain the temperature that's comfortable for you.

I love the look of curly eyelashes--it makes my eyes look super-big and glam, like I'm wearing false lashes, plus it gives my face an instant lift. My previous method for curling my lashes was to simply hit my metal eyelash curler Shiseido The Makeup Eyelash Curler with a shot of hot air from my hair dryer and that did the trick. However, it's not always convenient to carry around a hair dryer just to heat your metal eyelash curler. With my busy schedule, sometimes I'm forced to apply my make-up wherever I can, which turns out is not always in front my vanity or in my bathroom next to my hair dryer, or even near an electrical outlet. So, I was so psyched to find out they made electric eyelash curlers!!! What a neat invention, I thought. My first electric eyelash curler was much like this one: Talika Heated Eyelash Curler 1 ea . However, the brand I had didn't really get hot enough for a strong, long lasting curl. Plus, the casing of the curler was rather shabby, and finally it just went dead (at a rather inopportune time might I add, while I was at a resort and couldn't buy another one and of course had left my old manual one behind--ugh!). After that horrid disappointment, having suffered an entire romantic holiday sans curled lashes due to an electric eyelash curler I couldn't depend on, I went back to using the hairdryer-on-metal method. I figured at least it couldn't break on me at the worst time possible. But in my heart I often wondered...was there a good electric eyelash curler out there? Then I saw this heated eyelash curler, and I thought maybe they had improved the tool. Furthermore, I read some reviews that the curler got really hot, which I thought would overcome one of the problems of my previous curler. However, I was sorely disappointed with this curler. It is shaped exactly like a mascara wand. Yes, it gets hot, but the whole concept is messed up. You have to manually sit there and push on your lash line, and then you have to keep going over the lash to warm it up enough to make it pliable, and then you have to keep holding it down, holding it down, holding it down....oh Lord have mercy it's all just too much trouble. And the curl really doesn't lock in, because the curler provides no tension or crimping, and you really need the tension of the two hot metal surfaces squeezing the eyelash. The concept is just off and faulty. I kept the product because I really didn't have time to fool with sending it back and all that. So it just sits in my make-up drawer because I hate to throw something away that I spent money on. I figure maybe I'll find a use for it one day, like to heat up some tiny object that is I don't know what. And in case you are wondering, yeah, I'm back to the hairdryer-on-metal curler method again, IF I'm fortunate enough to be by an outlet. If not, I go without curled lashes (ain't it a shame). I saw Panasonic makes a more traditional-type electric lash curler, like the first one I had Panasonic EH2331P Heated Eyelash Curler . I might try it again, but I'll admit I'm a bit gun shy, having been burnt (no pun intended) in the past. So I ask the cosmetics universe: Can anyone out there make a decent, effective, and dependable heated eyelash curler?

I have to update my review - Received and started using this December 5, 2015 - It stopped working February 5, 2016. I really loved the lift my eyelashes got from this, but it needs to last longer than 2 months for me to give a true recommendation. I may have just gotten a lemon but I was not rough nor did I drop this product. Couldn't come up with a reason for it to die. I will be trying another brand and will post a review on that one! I was skeptical of this product. But I have to admit that I really love it. It does a very nice job of giving my lashes a little extra lift - it is not like a mechanical curler at all. So if you want the bent lash look, this probably isn't for you. I use mine with mascara, I'm not sure how it would work on bare lashes - but then I don't leave the house w/o mascara. I have also found love for it when I end up with a goopy lash - it totally fixes it and I am able to apply more mascara over it - no glob on the lash!!! And even better - it does not mess up my eyeliner. I takes a couple of extra minutes in the morning - but worth it. I've tried it with several different mascara's and some do work better than others - you just have to find your favorite combination. I've seen other heated curlers at a higher price point, but I feel like got a good deal with this product. I would recommend this product to someone who is looking for a little more glamor.

Here is the trick to use this eyelash curler if you have straight eyelashes that are hard to curl. You have to use mascara!!! For reals. I tried without the mascara and it didn't do jack but warm up my eyelashes like some other people mentioned. It also did not work with clear mascara. It has to be colored mascara. Waterproof mascara is the best as its the lightest and wont weigh down your eyelashes as much. Also. This thing gets HOT with new batteries. I think I burned my eyeball once because I was not being careful. And the last tip. Get some rechargeable batteries. This thing goes thru batteries like crazy. Oh. And the one thing I REALLY like about this curler, I have a cowlick in my eyelashes. Just a bunch on my left eye that spread apart and go wonky when I put on mascara. I HATE IT! A normal eyelash curler only exaggerates the issue. With this one I can have more control and push my eyelashes in the direction I want. How I use the curler 1) turn on curler and wait for indicator to turn pink 2) while waiting get a piece of tissue 3) when curler is ready slather on the mascara on your first eye. Wiggle the brush to get in between all the eyelashes with a thick coat. Don't worry if you look like a TV evangelist most of the mascara will come off on the curler. 4) start at the base of the lashes and wiggle the bar to get between your eyelashes. gently press back and up to get the start of the curl. Hold a few sends and super slow start to sweep up 5) Wipe off the excess mascara off the curler on the tissue between strokes 6) Do the same with the rest of your lashes. I usually start in the inner eye and work out. Don't forget to whip the curler Do the same steps with the other eye. You can add more mascara on top of the eyelashes that have been curled if you really do want to look like a TV Evangelist. Last step is to look in the mirror and be impressed with who huge your eyeballs look when you moved your eyelashes out of way ;-D

Bought this off of a friend's recommendation. Was skeptical after reading some of the reviews on Amazon but decided to give it a try. I am always looking for new gadgets to improve my routine anyhow. Unfortunately I should have went with the other reviews that this doesn't really work. This eyelash curler does not curl very well and I was so hoping to use heat to make the curl last like when I curl my hair for the day. My hair curls easily too but this tool is not easy to use. I'm a girly girl so I'm use to using all sorts of gadgets but this is just difficult to use and took too much time for so-so results. You have to angle it just right and lay your mascara on thick before using because of the heat it takes a lot of it off. The battery life runs out quickly and you can't use rechargeable batteries on it so it's a waste of money if you use it a lot. I just made my own perfect heated eyelash curler since I wasn't able to find a good one. I'm back to using THE BEST eyelash curler my trusty metal curler by Shiseido. Now I heat up the rubber part of it for a few seconds with my blow dryer and wha la the perfect heated eyelash curler with lashes that last all day. I so wanted to return this but it works well at de-clumping. When I put my mascara on and some of my lashes get stuck together I use it to unclump them. Works great since it takes off excess mascara with the heat and separates each lash. I use it to comb out my lashes for that defined look and take off excess mascara so I don't look like a raccoon. I highly recommend this product as a de-clumper but not as a curler.

Okay - I thoroughly read through the reviews. There are numerous negative ones, and several positive. I figured the negative were probably from impatient individuals or from those who didn't read the instructions. I will start by saying I am not impatient and I read the instructions before I began. I inserted a brand new AA battery, as instructed, slid the switch to on. I waited for the indicator light to turn red (kinda like the old hair roller indicator.) Pierce it turned red. I put that puppy up to my eyelashes and it was HOT. Not warm, H.O.T. It may be warm if you were curling your arm hair..but this is my eye region. A tender, sensitive area? Um, yeah! I tried, I really did, numerous ways, to curl my lashes and not scorch my eyelid. I even tried both eyes thinking maybe I was holding the curler wrong. As I sit here typing this review, after submitting for a return, both my eyes are so sore. They have been burned. I am bummed. First, because I really was excited to try this and have a new way to curl my lashes, and second, because my eyelids hurt now!! I am not a whimp, and not a complainer, but HOW is it that no one has commented on how hot this this gets!?

I've been using this eyelash curler for almost 3 years now and I love it. I truly feel most of the bad reviews are user error. I've tried every type of heated eyelash curler out there and this one rocks my socks. Here's some helpful hints: 1) The first time you put a battery in it's HOT. Use caution for the first few times. Sometimes I have to turn it off and let it cool a little before I can continue. 2) Yes there is a power button sliding thingy. It's silver and in the middle of the device. You don't just put a battery in and it works. That's the dumbest thing I've ever heard because then you would have to take the battery out again to turn it off. Yes, It takes a minute to heat up. On the back of the tip is a blueish-purple dot that turns pink when it's ready. Turn it on at some point during your beauty routine (before you actually need it). I turn it on after I get my foundation on but before I apply color. 3) You can't just hold it to your eyelash and it magically curls. For the best results I start at the base of the lash pressing upwards and hold for a second or two, then move slowly to the end of the lash and press back towards toward the eyelid to force the eyelash into a crescent or "c" shape. Moving back and forth across the eye to include all of the lashes. To keep the tip from clogging up I apply mascara after. For a more dramatic lash I apply a thin coat of mascara then curl while it's wet, then a second coat. Just remember to clean it. 4) There's no Wall-E robot that will come and scrub your tip. Here's how I keep it clean. The tip of the eyelash curler has a eyelash separator and underneath are the heating elements. The eyelash separator slides off the end of the eyelash curler for easy access. Use the brush that was included in your package to clean out the eyelash separator using your make up remover. Clean the heating element with the same DRY brush. If this area gets clogged your eyelashes will no longer be able to reach the heated coils and the curler will no longer be effective. 5) Always replace the cap when you are done. The cap turns off the eyelash curler when you slide it on, and keeps the eyelash separator from sliding off the end in your makeup bag. Otherwise you'll be searching for a new battery the next time you go to use it. When used consistently, like with any battery operated device, you'll have to replace them. Especially devices with a heat element as they use more power. Keep extra in your makeup bag. 6) I use up my eyelash curlers at least every 6 months. I've dropped one and the cap broke, another got smashed in my checked baggage, I lent one out and never saw again...etc. I never had one that didn't work. Plan on replacing it or having a backup on hand for when you have an accident. I will order this product again and again. I will never go back to the skin pinching, eyelash crimping mid evil torture device.

I love this eyelash curler! It works very well. I like the comb head, it's quite useful. It works so much better than the conventional eyelash curler, plus you can use it after applying mascara. Love it!

Not working

This item is great. Once I applied my mascara I would use it & it worked. Just be careful where you place it as it is got & you don't want to burn yourself.

Very bad zero effect

I already have a battery operated heated eyelash curler which I'm very pleased with but although it curls it doesn't separate the lashes like this one does. I sometimes use the curler, put on mascara and then use this panasonic brush type to separate eyelashes that have stuck together or that aren't quite how I want them. Other times I just use this brush type on it's own to give my lashes a lift. I wouldn't say it curls eyelashes like the 'clamp on' type curler does but it does lift and separate eyelashes I find it easier to use after the first coat of mascara has dried and apply a second coat after using the brush and use again if need be. That way it doesn't remove the mascara (I've used it with maybelline's great lash and sensational lash). I find it heats up within a minute and you use it as you would a mascara brush but leaving it touching the lashes for longer and applying a little pressure if necessary. I didn't think I was going to like it at first but it was because I was trying to keep my eye wide open while I was using it but you don't need to do that. (It can be used on lower lashes too). It is small enough to go in a makeup bag or handbag and the removal brush head makes it easy to clean. I am really happy with it and would not hesitate to order again or recommend to friends.
