ABSTRACT:
An eyelash curler comprising a stationary member and a movable member. The stationary member includes a piece of material shaped into a thumb loop at the bottom and a pair of spaced-apart posts at the top. The tops of the posts extend upwardly sufficiently so as to press against, throughout the curling process, the upper portion of a person's eye socket. An arcuately-shaped curling member interconnects the spaced-apart posts and extends a short distance on either side thereof. The bottom of the curling member is shaped to define a bottom surface, a front surface, a rear surface, a first bevelled surface extending from the front surface to the bottom surface and a second bevelled surface extending from the rear surface to the bottom surface. The internal angle between each adjacent pair of the five surfaces is approximately 135.degree.. The movable member is pivotally connected to the stationary member and includes a second piece of material shaped into an index finger loop at the bottom and a pair of generally-parallel arms at the top. A cap is mounted over the top ends of the arms of the movable member and is adapted to press against, throughout the curling process, the cheek of a person. A support member is connected to the movable member proximate to its top end and extends upwardly therefrom. An arcuately-shaped pad holder of U-shape in lateral cross-section is fixed to the top of the support member. A resilient pad is removably seated within the pad holder. The pad, which is generally rectangular in lateral cross-section, is provided with a recessed portion into which a portion of the pad may be displaced when the curling member presses against the top portion of the pad.
