Long, dark eyelashes are a sexy part of any gal’s makeup routine, but they’ll be for naught if you can’t see them. To make those peepers pop, you’ll need to curl those lashes up, up and away. Here are three easy ways to make sure you get the curly lashes every girl dreams of.

1. Try a curling mascara. Some kinds of mascara are designed to help your lashes curl upward, opening your eyes and giving you a sweet yet sexy look. Look for one in dark black for maximum impact, and carry it around in your bag for touchups on the go.

2. Use an eyelash curler. If there’s one surefire way to get curly lashes, it’s with a metal eyelash curler. To make sure your look stays all day long, heat the curler by pointing your blowdryer at it for a few seconds, then apply to your lashes. Just like with a hot curling iron on your hair, a heated curler will give you added staying power.

3. Grab a spoon. Need a quick and easy way to fix up your lashes on the go? Use a metal spoon. Use your finger to get your lashes against the edge of the spoon and press upwards to curl. It may be a seriously budget way of doing things, but it works – especially if you need a touch-up in the middle of a date while your guy goes off to the little boys’ room.
