A great eyelash curler can take even the shrimpiest lashes from mid to mega. But if your curl doesn’t last more than an hour or so, you might consider a more high-tech tool: the heated eyelash curler.
As you might have already considered, it’s important to use with caution: “Human skin can sustain first-degree burns at 118 degrees Fahrenheit and second-degree burns at 131 degrees. Since the skin of the eyelids is especially thin, it will damage easier and at lower temperatures,” a clinical spokesperson for the American Academy of Ophthalmology, Natasha Herz, says in a statement.
Still, these tools don’t get very hot (think warm, not scorching) and have other safety features built in. If you’re looking into trying the beauty tool, find Bazaar editors’ picks for the eight best heated eyelash curlers ahead—plus, tips on how to use it.
Reddit user Kitbox “swears by” this heated curler, which is essentially a mini comb with slick silicone bristles. The pen-like size is also really convenient to throw in a makeup bag or purse.
Features: battery lasts approximately 21 uses

“This is the makeup tool that was missing from my bag. After years of fighting with traditional crimp-style lash curlers. Battling to avoid pinching my eyelids and often loosing, this is the answer. I prefer to use this before I apply mascara. That way the mascara won’t heat up and clump on the lash.” —J. Monteiro
Two grooming essentials is better than one! This set includes a heated curler with a temperature indicator to let you know it’s ready, plus a set of LED-powered tweezers so you can see every little hair.
Features: temperature indicator, LED tweezers, batteries included
Customer Review:
“I didn’t know what to expect! This works! Just a few seconds of running the cutler up and they ur lashes! I have sensitive eyes… and skin and didn’t want to wear mascara, anymore. I still have to put a thin coat of mascara because my lashes are too light (and tinting didn’t work)… but, so much better. I don’t like the traditional eyelash curlers… too Pinchy! The only downside…been a couple months and had to replace battery already.” —Wendy
