2. You can find this drugstore eyelash curler anywhere and it’s our tried & true team pick!
Revlon Lash Curler – $4.99
Sometimes you just need to bring it back to basics and a bunch of us at Hip2Save are in love with our tried and true. In fact, we have been for many years! If you’re not looking to spend a fortune on an eyelash curler, then a basic Revlon might be all you need in your life. Despite all the bad reviews, we still love this affordable option!
“I have only used this one my whole life – and I’ve actually tried switching multiple times because I thought I needed to upgrade, but I ended up always reverting back to my original one – it’s my tried and true. I just buy new red rubber pads for mine whenever I need them. I’m not sure if my exact one is even available as I think mine is legitimately from 2006 when I started wearing makeup! 😂“ – Emily, Hip Sidekick
“I never really gave it a second thought to spend more than a few bucks on an eyelash curler. I’ve actually had my Revlon one for many years and previous to replacing it, I had a Revlon before that, too. I think these do a great job at separating my eyelashes before I put mascara on and gives my lashes an overall better appearance.” – Sara, Hip Sidekick

Check out some of these 5-star reviews…
“I have never found a full eyelash corner that gets all of my eyelashes. This little jewel has solved that problem. It is easy to use and it does the job no more little lashes lying straight, while the rest of them are curled. I recommend them.”

“I bought it a couple of years ago when Hip2Save posted about a mystery kit with a full-sized palette. I read in the reviews that using a Tarte eyelash curler was so much better than using an eyelash curler from a drugstore and the reviewer was so right! I’ve used it daily ever since.” – Jenna, Hip Sidekick
But, you can SKIP the heated eyelash curler trend!
TouchBeauty Professional Heated Eyelash Curler – as low as $13.98 (regularly $19.98)
You’ve likely heard about the ‘magic’ of heated eyelash curlers on social media, and with over 3K 5-star ratings we were expected to buy into the hype too! But according to our trendy, TikTok Specialist, Rachel, this curler completely missed the bar for her with no noticeable difference when using this curler.
“Honestly I do not like the idea of the heated eyelash curler and haven’t seen online. I feel like the classic eyelash curler gets the best results.” – Rachel, Hip Sidekick
Not to mention, these heated eyelash curlers are typically on the pricier side. Thus, we’d say It’s pretty unanimous that when it comes to the top eyelash curler, the simpler, the better!
Keep all your beauty tools and more organized with these 10 clever ideas!
I have always heated my eyelash curler with my hair dryer for a few seconds since I was a teenager. It works perfect.
Great tip for a traditional eyelash curler, Jamie! 🙌❤️
I completely disagree! My heated curler is my favorite beauty tool and it makes such a difference!
SO glad you’ve been loving yours, Shay! 🙌 Thanks for letting us know how great it has worked on your lashes!
Hi H2S friends, I have long but stick straight eyelashes and have curled them just about everyday since I was a teenager. Years ago I switched to plastic eyelash curlers and have been super happy with the results. Sometimes the metal ones would kink my lashes instead of curl them, even if I had replaced the rubber pad.
Also, I can only use one type of mascara, otherwise any other mascara will straighten out my freshly curled eyelashes. I use Maybelline Volum’ Express Rocket (blue/pink tube) in waterproof and have been pleased with the results for years.
Thanks so much for explaining what has worked best for your lashes! I don’t ever curl mine and now I really want to give it a try! 🙌
