you can warm your eyelash curler a little bit with a hairdryer, but do not do it too long, because this will actually heat up and you can burn yourself or hurt yourself. So really take a hairdryer, may be 5 to 10 seconds, that’s it, quick.

Seeing as how you've tried everything on the market, I would guess that you've already tried an eyelash curler, but I would try to heat it up like many others have already suggested. Besides doing that, I would use a mascara that is made to curl eyelashes and that actually works. I would suggest either Maybelline XXL Curl or Lancome Divine Curl (its called Courbe Virtuose or something like that; everything at Lancome is in French so that might be spelled wrong, lol). I've used the Lancome one, and in my opinion it works very well. The only thing I would advise is buying a lash primer to go underneath it as it can be drying to the lashes, but it definitely curled my lashes without my having to use an eyelash curler. Its kind of expensive so that why I also suggested the Maybelline one because the brushes look similar and I think the formulas might be similar too.

I got this tip from one of those tabloid magazines. First warm an eyelash curler with water from your sink. Place curler at base of lashes and hold for about 15-20 second (Make sure its dry). Apply curling mascara(CoverGirl has the best), make sure to take your time and slowly "wiggle" the wand at the base of of lash line. Apply second coat before the lash dries...you dont want that "crunchy" look. Your beautiful lashes are complete!!!

Use a Revlon regular eyelash curler and use it before you put your mascara on. Curl it 8 seconds at the roots, 5 seconds at the tips, then 5 more seconds at the roots. Try using Maybelline Full n' Soft Mascara.

Try the lash curler right after a coat of lash primer.
When you remove the curler let the lashes dry thoroughly and THEN apply your mascara.

Alternatively, use an undercoat of lash builder or lash thickener (while not yet set) and again, remove the curler let the lashes dry thoroughly and THEN apply your mascara.

That should do it!!!
