    Does an eyelash curler make your eyelashes longer or just curly?
    Community Answer
    It can make your eyelashes appear longer by altering the direction of your eyelashes, but it is really just curling the lashes. It flatters your eye shape and makes you look more awake. Sometimes it can make your eyelashes look thinner, so brushing some Vaseline through your eyelashes can make them look thicker and healthier. It also helps them to grow longer.
