My trusty eyelash curlers have bitten the dust, the spring is bust, and as they were from Accessorize i cannot replace them like-for-like.

Therefore, please can i pick your fabulous burly brains for a great replacement? What brand can you recommend me?

I tried the Body Shop ones years and years ago, i didn't like them at all, so any other than those that people know and love - let me in on the secret please!
Thank you Smile

I adore these;

Although I don't curl my eyelashes too often as I find my eyes can get quite gritty if I do!

But then there's always the trusy old scissor type that you can get from any chemist.

Can only find US stockists - must search harder! Smile

I have made a note of the name; next time i get the opportunity to go browsing in town i'll ask in Selfridges/Harvey Nicks here in Manchester. We also have a Space NK which might be able to help Smile

thanks again!
