eye lash curler?

Do the metal ones need to always be heated for a few seconds or can you just use them without being heated .. i dont think heating them would be very safe

    You don't have to heat them. Eyelash curlers are one area of makeup that you can go cheap on... you don't need an electric one. The plain old crimpers are just as good.

    Are you kidding?! How are you gonna heat up a metal eyelash curler without getting burnt or handicapped for the rest of your life? Metal curlers do not need to be heated up just apply mascara or dont and curl if you want one heated try Avons electronically heated eyelash curler(no more than ten dollars) Get the lashes...skip the burn :)

    No they don't need to be heated, I use mine all the time (I just hold it in for about 10 seconds) and it works great without being heated. I've read in a magazine that you can blow dry your eyelash curler to heat it up a bit, but I've never tried it and don't know how that would work...don't really see the point. If you DO do it, be extra careful!

    No need to heat. Just squeeze them for 15 seconds and they'll curl. Definitely would not want to heat the metal kinds or you'll hurt yourself lol.

    they do not need to be heated, if you really want to run it under a warm tap for 10 seconds or so -- BUT that's it. You vould seriously burn yourself and cause injury to your eyes.
